Just back from a long drive back from NY.. I had a good set of meetings today.. but it’s still a long drive for a day.  Lots of work things weighing heavily on my mind now.. which makes for difficult driving.. One bright spot was a 2 hour interview with the fine folks at Zombie Tech podcast Hosts Addie and Whisker do a weekly podcast on folks practical suggestions on how to survive and thrive in the zombie apocalypse.  They saw the Colony on Netflix and invited me to the interview.. it was so much fun talkign to them. After the interview I learned about some of their amazing projects.. They do a weekly youtube podcast at  http://tymkrs.com/ on cool stuff thye’re building. I plan on staying tuned in. .. I love getting to talk about zombies with folks.. on of the great perks of being a geek ( I just noticed my name is in close proximity to the word ‘zombie’ over 3000 times in google.. how cool is that)

It was a big media day for me.. there was also a nice article in our local paper 7days about engineering promotion . I really love the article.

Unfortunately I found a pretty serious misquote/misunderstanding in the hardcopy version.. A large heading says  that I ‘…designed the chips in the xbox, playstation 3 and  his personal favorite the wii”.. I did not design those chips. although I did  work on them along with 100’s of talented colleagues at IBM. The heading also says I have a favorite..while that may be true, it was not appropriate for me to have said that in print. I apologize to our customers and my colleagues for any offense taken… none was intended.

Again.. i loved the article overall… .

well.. I gotta sleep now.. i feel like a zombie !

nite all, nite sam
