Somehow I doubt it. But if a good opportunity came up I would

I have a couple interviews scheduled so we shall see. But if anyone knows of someone hiring pm me

I'm looking at vp engineering or operations or even director of sales for some kind of manufacturing company. Hell I would take a regional position if available

As for the weather I live the heat and humidity. It's the cold I can't stand.

Fixed the broken wire again in the Chrysler Town and Country motorized sliding door. I can almost do it with my eyes closed now.
I may be schizophrenic, but at least I have each other.

Woke up, got out of bed....



No, I did not drag a comb across my head. There is no reason for that.. :-)



Digging a trench so I can bury some 12-2 underground for the storage building/dog house (it's dark out there....lol).

We began trim-out of the basement of the largest project I've worked on in a while. Installed Episode speakers in 8 rooms, plus Episode 900 series in-walls & their dual woofer sub in the theater. Put in three 14-space SRSR racks & loaded them: 2 Episode UPSs, 3 Episode power distribution units, Atlona 8x8 HDBaseT matrix, Samsung Blu-ray, C4 media player, 3 cable boxes, HD TiVo, C4 HC-1000, 4 C4 HC-200, C4 I/O extender, Integra DTR 40.3, Episode sub amp, Integra CD changer, and the client's existing HD Radio tuner. Put in two 5" InfinityEdge touchscreens, & hung two 55" Sammy LEDs. Prepped audio input wallplates for the iPod dock and the baby grand player piano.

Last month we installed new gear & wired an existing rack on the 2nd floor for the 27 zones of audio, HC-200s for on-screen GUI on 4 TVs, and the surveillance DVR. We're also doing some lighting, HVAC, & security & irrigation integration.

This will likely be the subject of the first pics I post to RC.

Had a good day today. Went to do some tweaking for my former boss in a house where the original client has moved out. New owner gave me his old plasma which still works fine (Fujitsu) and by way of thanks my old boss bought me some speakers i wanted off eBay which cost double the days wage. Not that he really needs to thank me as I'm still driving around in my old company car and he is still paying for all the petrol and running costs. I haven't worked for him for almost a year now. Top guy, top company. I'm hoping to be able to go back soon, health permitting.
I guarantee I'll tell you the truth and I guarantee I'll tell you what you need to know but I can't guarantee that I'll be telling you anything you want to hear.

Yeah, you got me--we loaded the racks at the shop on Monday afternoon. Everything was prewired & speakers & TPs had pre-construction frames. Oh, and I wasn't alone!

I spent the day working around some original Dale Chihuly glass art.  Man that stuff looks fragile!  Doing a TV install on the back side of this wall:



Next was pulling the old TV and all the old gear from this system and installing a pull out rack... again, right next to the glass art.

I'm thinking the FIRST thing I would have asked is that the glass art be removed from the areas where I were to messing around.


Me being the bull in a china shop, things would go badly....
