Post-vacation Tidbits

• I just got back from 10 days in Orlando.  Isn't the first day back from vacation fun?
• On Sunday, my wife Lisa completed her first 26.2 mile event at the Disney World Marathon.  Congratulations to her on an amazing achievement and a big "thank you" to all who have supported her charity cause.
• I walked the half-marathon race on Saturday.  Fun race.  It starts at Epcot, goes up for a walk through Magic Kingdom, and then back to Epcot.  This event required a pace of 16 minutes per mile or faster.  Unfortunately, I completed the event with an overall pace of 15:56, which means I wasted the opportunity to loaf for a full four seconds on every mile.  :-)
• Winnable Solitaire has been reborn.  Denny Cronin's web version of the game is now online.  I can't believe how quickly he did this.  He just got the code 24 days ago.
• On February 1^st, I will be speaking at the Jacksonville .NET User Group.  I'm not quite ready to post my topic/abstract yet, but I plan to do so before the meeting.
