Hello from Armonk, Ibm’s corporate headquarters. I’m down in the learning Center which is now called the Lewis v Gerstner learning center. The name has changed… As have some of the people who work here, but it still my favorite hotel in the world. I don’t know exactly why… It’s a bit like a monastery. A short walk over to corporate headquarters… A big communal cafeteria… And small Monk like cells For sleeping. Perhaps I was in some sort of monastic order in a past life and that’s why it appeals to me.

It’s pretty empty tonight… And it reminds me of a time back in 2012 just before Christmas when I truly was the only person in one of the buildings. I was so sure of it I started knocking on doors… Not another soul. I Remember I called gabe and he suggested I make a ghost movie… Which is just what I did. I threw a sheet over my head (and nothing else)… And ran through the halls screaming… I caught most of it on my camera, but only this picture survives. It used to be behind the check-in counter… I don’t think it’s there anymore

Here’s the blog I wrote about it in 2012. http://johncohn.org/base/2012/02/27/monday-night-ghost-walking/

It’s fun to be here thinking about that many years later

Time for sleep now…

Nite all, nite Sam
