I’m almost too sleepy to write.. less than 7 hours sleep in the last two days.. My first meeting today was to give the opening lecture to this years crop of interns. (aren’t they cute ?!)

As in past years, I do about half related to my day job.. that usually puts them to sleep.. and about half relating to my education outreach  stuff. which wake them back up

This morning I talked quite a bit about my family and Sam’s passing. II put that in the context of needing to really think about the balance and priorities you have in your life .. and the importance of finding and feeding your passion.  I know that that part of the conversation changed the tone of my talk.. but it’s something I really can’t not talk about.

The rest of my day went by in a blur.. my calendar was jam packed.. and I managed to get a ton done. One cool thing that happened was that I got a copy of the cool One IBM  video that they produced for the CTRE event. This will be  used all over the world to promote the reach and scope of  IBM. My friend Doug had told me that there was a SamStone picture hidden in it somewhere.. I looked and looked.. but couldn’t find it..   Can you see it ?
