How would YOU build this solution?
In my organization, we have a 24×7 help desk, and they asked me to create a custom theme for their use to track system outages, and provide daily summaries to upper management.

My Movember, 2012
As most of you know, when I try to grow facial hair, I tend to look like a 13 year old Guatemalan boy. On estrogen. With that said, for the last four years, every November I’ve been growing a moustache ridiculing myself for money. What is this madness? Why would I do something like this? …

WordCamp San Francisco – A Conference That Changed My Brain
Here I am at home, near Baltimore, MD, blasting some metal music (Machine Head & Trivium, just in case you were wondering, @jarret) while typing this, and I really can’t get this shit-eating-grin off my face. WordCamp San Francisco 2011 was beyond anything that I could have imagined. I was in a town car going…

Boating on the Bay
Nancy and I finally bit the bullet and took our boat out on the Chesapeake Bay. This is kind of a big deal because, well, our boat is pretty small compared to the behemoths out there. We have a 16 foot Tracker bass boat with a 65 horsepower outboard. We bought the boat this April…
