At work, there are five of us who rotate (weekly) through overnight on-call; I work for an IT MSP (managed service provider). Our schedule got really screwed up and we couldn't seem to get back on track; our dispatch manager would have to beg for people to volunteer on Friday afternoon to start the weekly shift that Friday evening. Sooooo, I took the reins and created a "1, 2, 3, 4, 5" schedule out through June, but to make it equitable to everyone, I took one "for the team" and scheduled myself for the odd week so that no one (but me) was going to get hit with going back on-call in less than 5 weeks. Selfless of me? HECK NO! I immediately scheduled my Christmas vacation between the highly sought-after official holidays of Christmas Day and New Year's Day and got approved. Some may say: Dumb? or not so dumb... playing the long game is a thinking man's sport. :-)

Dear All,
I had a stroke on 11/5 and spent a week in the hospital. I am doing well, but will need surgery in the coming weeks; please continue to pray for me.
Thanks,
-John.
We're going to a local zoo tomorrow - haven't been there in a LONG time. I'm looking forward to it, I find it peaceful. If you have a nearby zoo, consider visiting it soon if you haven't been there in a while. :-)

The epic tale of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" has a moral to the story: at the end, after crying "wolf!" falsely and laughing at the woodsmen who comes to "save him", the wolf really does appear and now the woodsmen don't respond to his cries for help. We are seeing that in today's society: these hyperventilating, mouth-frothing, extremists have been screaming that it's "the end of democracy" or "everyone's a racist, bigot, -phobe, (insert whatever here)", or "the climate is going to implode in 12 years" are in for a rude awakening. The wolf is November 8th.
