Hi Ron! I’ll email you a list of metrics to consider. Yes, I’m left-handed, ridiculously so. I think my right hand is just there for looks, in fact.

I used to live in Milwaukee, and have been to Lake Geneva a time or two! Beautiful area.

Thanks for reaching out!

Hi Gia…noticed in Clearstep that you had a blog, so here I am. We are implementing Clearspace at Cisco. I’ve got to figure out some measure/metrics…any ideas for me? Anyway, love your blog. My wife and I love MOA…make the 6 hour trip by car from Lake Geneva, WI every October around Halloween. One more random comment…are you left-handed? I am. So is Barack. Celebrate your sinister side (sinistra is left in Italian). Oh, and if you have any ideas on metrics…I’d love to hear from you. rberndt@cisco.com
ciao.

David, yes. I let her decorate, and then I’d scrape off the mountain of pink sprinkles after she was done. Also, I used frozen dough and just cut it into circles. Because I couldn’t find the cookie cutters. Lame, much?

In my brown boots, in my brown boots, I jump around in my brown boots.

Ah, what were we talking about. Hope you have the same Laurie Berkner CDs I do. Dan Zanes is great also.

When you’re working on baking the cookies, do you ever have the urge to do more of it yourself, so it will come out right (straight, organized, not a jackson pollock cookie…), fighting with the real purpose of doing it with your daughter? I think I’m developing a bad habit of making the dough and letting my wife and 4 year old daughter battle with entropy of the cutting and decorating.

Three words……airport moving sidewalk.

My son thinks its the best invention of all time. I have trouble getting him on the plane he is having so much fun. And the added benefit…..he’s run so ragged that he falls asleep in about two seconds.

Thanks, Amy! I convinced Chris to stay home with us today and tomorrow. We’re about to go to MoA, because we are nuts and enjoy chaos. Hope you and all your boys have a great Christmas!

I have discovered that clubpenguin.com is a life-saver (if you’re not already there). Sounds like a busy week! Call if you need a shoulder
