So today I start blogging on this site.  There are a few things that you should know when you are reading my blog.  I will be passionate when writing about topics.  I will not be speaking on behalf of my employer.  Any technical comments made here will be strictly my opinion (and will not be a bashing of a technology or any one company).  There may be some posts that are rants...for those I will apologize in advance; I sometimes wear my heart on my sleeve, while it doesn't make me a bad person, some of you just might not understand it.

Today is Giovanni's first day back to school.  Myself and the wife watched him interact with his friends at the bus stop and get on the bus (with the 13 other kids at our bus stop).  The kids from our stop filled half the bus.  Giovanni was really excited to get back to school.  I hope that attitude lasts though college.

On the career front, things look good.  I have several prospects that i'm interviewing with.  I'm in the process of finalizing two consulting jobs (after hours work which leaves me plenty of time during the day for interviewing and networking). These are mainly virtualization administration gigs where companies want to have someone cleanup their virtual environments ( getting rid of old vm's that are not in use, cleaning up the active directory for user who are no longer with the company...etc).

I'll cut this post short for now.  Looking to get a couple of things off the "honey do list".  So for now, be well, hug your children when you see them and tell your wife (or husband) you love them. Stay tuned ...more posts to follow....

40th Reunion plans for the Freehold Township High School Class of 1984

Update 29 Mar 2024 - Have you told your high school friends yet about the reunion? Hello Classmates!!! And Happy Good Friday!  Easter is this weekend and I hope you all enjoy Easter Sunday.  I have updated the list of attendees on the google sheets page. We need 26 more attendees to make the 100 person commit for the venue. Check the list of attendees.  Do you see someone missing?   The zero next to persons on the list are people that attended the 2014 reunion but have not responded or maybe don't even know about the 2024 reunion.   We need 10 more to sign up to make the 19 July 2024 payment of $2024.00 (there is money collected that has not been given to the venue).  Those who sign up last minute...your payment has to be forwarded to me no later than 7 Oct 2024.  I will need to bring the venue cash or a certified check for the July and Oct payment.  The last payment amount is $2024 and due 9 Oct 2024.  If you are planning to stay at the hotel, you better book now. There is a wedd

Proud Dad Moment

  I don’t normally use this platform to post personal events.   However, yesterday was a proud dad moment that I would like to share. My son, Giovanni, soccer team banquet was last night, and he received this character award from his coaches.   Why am I posting about this?   At 2 years old, Giovanni was diagnosed with PDD or Pervasive Developmental Disorder. This disorder falls under the autism umbrella. His mother and I were devastated to receive this news.   It was a blessing in disguise.   Anyone who knows about this disorder, has learned the art of redirection. To refocus the child when they are distracted, or laser focused on repeating things / habits.   We were very fortunate to get him into an early prevention program at the school district. Giovanni has been main streamed in his classes since kindergarten. To our amazement, in the 6 th grade his neural developmental specialist told us that she didn’t see the need to classify him any further… to quote her “he is as normal
