App/Hardware of the Quarter Preview -Whirlwind Trip for “The Brain” – Black Eye Repaired … Jen’s Continued Baptism – Travels

Posted on September 21, 2018 by | Leave a comment

Each quarter we like to highlight an App of the Quarter in our Newsletter … This Quarter, as a sneak preview, we did not pick an App, but a SUPER handy piece of hardware, that has saved us a ton…. We will divulge next week!

Donald “The Brain” with a Black Eye?

What’s the only thing you really don’t want to have when your having a photo shoot? 

How about a Black eye!black eye -pexels-photo-1404727

In a “You cannot make this up way” The Brain arrived in Dallas yesterday morning for a record breaking fast whirlwind tour photo shoot, then flight back home – with non other than – you guessed it …. A Black Eye!

Thanks to an opponent softball player’s wild elbow while turning the base, The Brain had a nice shiner ….

Jen’s continued baptism was in full force as the waterproof cover-up was handy … no more black eye! Sorry folks, a perfect photo moment was lost as they both knew I would want a pic, and they waited until a much needed gas refill was occurring – rats, missed it..

Photo shoot done!

Hmmmmm …. Why the photo shoot?

Well, we cannot say for about three more weeks, but when we can – WE WILL – LOUDLY

Travels

As you read this I will likely be in a plane with the 13 year old, headed to a National Tennis Tournament in a warmer state, where “What Happens There, Stays There” … 100+degrees will feel like summer again ….. All Good!

The end of the THIRD – yes – third quarter, of 2018, is next week — it goes fast…. spend time with those important …. talk to ya next week!

On the Road – A Vacation – Finally –

Posted on August 3, 2018 by | Leave a comment

Regular readers know we had a fairly busy summer planned, especially with the Tennis circuit going –

What we did not know is just how busy it would be with a few successful Tennis Tournaments – So a few successes lead to more tournament opportunities – which in turn led to NO Vacation — SO FAR-

Vacation Today and Next WeekAirplane

As you read this, the 13 year old and myself will have landed late last night in a neighboring state to catch up with the rest of the family, including a sibling and parent — who have been in said state basking in the coolness for some time now!

All good !

Speaking of Travels, the Capone family are wheels up tomorrow for a 10 + hour journey to the beach for the week with a very pregnant Mrs. Capone and two boys that are sure to make the trip memorable!

Good Luck!

Hardware Updatespeed- superhero-534120__340

Early this week the Four Times Faster Hardware arrived – While exposing some slowness in our older machines, we are off to the races.

We will be testing it over the next week as remote is the new norm…

There is a goal of completing several New Vault Update videos … but no promises!!

Enjoy your Friday and your weekend.

Have a Great “Much needed R and R” Day!
