Lesson learned

Thalys on the weekend ... crowded with tourists who bring way too much luggage.

Paris again

Good meeting with longtime WG partner Arrows ECS in Paris yesterday, they are joining up as a training partner to deliver XTM and XCS training to resellers in France, which will make Sales happy.

And happy is good!

So ... staying in Paris again tonight on my dime, because hey, it's a beautiful day in Paris, how bad is that?  Spent lunchtime reading my Kindle down on the banks of the Seine, back to the hotel for a little e-mail, and then off to Montmartre to check out the Dali exhibit there.

Train time tomorrow

That five hour drive from Paris to Amsterdam I did last weekend?
Tomorrow I'm on the Thalys and should get there in about 3:15.

He's out!

And word is Diego Maradona was only fired by Argentina because he wouldn't agree to firing many of his assistant coaches.  Can't fault the guy's loyalty.

Updated desk shot

Most of the work is getting done here.  No offense, Hague office, but my chair, desk, lighting, music, and computer setup are all better here ... so, eh, why would I be there?  Because I like working slowly?  Also, the cheap Creative speakers are way better than nothing ... big upgrade to home musical enjoyment.

Decent night shot

This worked better than I'd hoped. From the bedroom ...

I like to read by the canal, too ... of course, I do it 4 floors up and in a comfy chair ...
