We got snow this morning. The temperature dropped to 11 or 12 this morning and the snow spitted a little for 2 or 3 hours. Now its not a lot but it’s something when it does snow. Nothing measurable.  I’ll show a couple of pictures from our area.

An Old Friend

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009

Last December a friend from my second job with American Airlines, Walter Grimes, passed away. He was the guy who hired me as an Analyst for IdeAAs In Action, a part of the American Airlines  group that was formed to handled the savings of monies as part of American employees provided ideas. There were many millions of dollars saved. Anyway, Walter was the Tulsa Representative for Tulsa to the Computer people at HDQ as well as the lead man for IdeAAs. He helped me get out of the Analyst position and allowed me to spend my time generally doing computer work until 9/11, when the group was disbanded. He was a true friend. He was hard working and tough. He was also a helper many groups outside of work, and overall nice guy.
