Hello (again) from Armonk NY (again).. I’ve been down once a week for the past four weeks . .. and that’s too much. I’ve been down for a variety of legitimate reasons.. but all added up.. it’s too much.. New years resolution to self.. travel much less.
I’m here in the learning center .. my favorite hotel as I’ve often said.. and I believe that I’m the only person in this entire building. i like to think that everyone else is at home sipping eggnog and eating christmas cookies.. I wish I were.. (though I’m also excited for the meeting I’m down here for tomorrow)
Strange to have such a big building to myself…
If I walked out my door now an screamed, I don’t think anyone would hear me..It makes me want to run through the halls with a sheet on my head and bang on all the doors..
that’s kind of spooky
and that’s kind of fun…
How much would you pay me to run through the halls here wrapped in a sheet ? Any takers ?
Nite all.. nite sam
-me
ps. just went out and the hall and ran around with a sheet on my head.. no one there !
Patrol: “Control, this is Patrol, over.”
Control: “Patrol, this is Control, go ahead, over.”
Patrol: “Control, we’ve got some nut-job running around with a sheet on his head and a room key card in his hand, over.”
Control: “Patrol, we’ve got him on visual and IR cameras, and are using the millimeter wave scanners to acquire an image of him in his birthday suit. Image analysis indicates he’s about 5′ 10″ and floor force sensors indicate he’s about 165 lbs. Audio sensors are detecting a high frequency component in his breathing, indicating significant facial hair obstructing his mouth and nose. Chemical sensors indicate indicate he burns wood to heat his home, has two dogs, eats a wide variety of foods, and has an affinity for pyrotechics. We’re also running a gait analysis and cross checking it against our known jogger and streaker database, over.”
Patrol: “Control, how long will all this analysis take, over.”
Control: “Patrol, we should have results any second now, thanks to IBM’s Smarter Planet init…Wait, we have a match! Seems this fellow has been known to stalk the campus in the past. Our image database shows him building a snowman outside the CEO’s window and showering naked on national television, over.
Patrol: “Control, do you want us to bring him in, over.”
Control: “Patrol, don’t bother. Thermal image analysis confirms its John Cohn. Just tell him to keep it down, and that he should see a doctor about that new mole on his backside, out.”
Patrol: “Control, roger, wilco, out”.
