RangerJo

Mid-summer at the visitor center. Personalities on staff beginning to clash and I become a referee. Can't wait to take a day off myself.

RangerJo Another Monday... groan. Hoped to get more done this weekend, but C is battling a cold someone shared at work. Presenteeism is a problem.
RangerJo Dark and cloudy all day. Kinda spooky. Watched the Blue Man Group "How to Be a Megastar" this morning. Never seen them. It was mesmerizing.
RangerJo Devastated the bath this weekend to make room for a Jacuzzi tub. Still removing particle board to put in concrete board for tile. Hard work.
RangerJo @joelhousman Graduated from IU. It's a beautiful and huge campus. Student body = 60,000 when I went. Nice in the fall.
RangerJo Getting ready to install a Jacuzzi for the holiday. Need a overflow drain, then it's out with the old, in with the new bubblier tub. Yippee.
RangerJo Warmer in Alaska, but still not breaking out of the 60's. Lots of bear and human interaction in the city this year. See www.adn.com today.
RangerJo Save me from training new employees... it's like being nibbled to death by ducks.
RangerJo @FullQuieting I hear ya. Yikes. Will the 3-day weekend ever arrive.
RangerJo @kamalaappel CommonSpot = content management system. A templated way to make websites look uniform. The National Park Service uses it.
RangerJo @rangercraig We had to explain why we don't use MACs... at least most of the time. Cheeez.
RangerJo Dancing in poodle skirts, cars from the 50's, and a reenactment of placing the 49th star on the U.S. flag. Big block party downtown.
RangerJo Celebration of Congress approving Alaska Statehood tomorrow, but it took another six months for Eisenhower to sign the declaration in 1959.
RangerJo Sunrise in the North (actually at 4:25am), but it's cloudy again today. The rhubarb is going nuts... potential jelly, pies and stew.
RangerJo @kamalaappel Migrating our website to a new CommonSpot address. Wish I had my bitey ferret. She loves toes but you're safe with socks.
RangerJo I have a meeting today with crabby people. Hope it only lasts until noon. I have real work to do.
RangerJo Watching hot air balloons in Vermont on Sunrise Earth. Looks surreal. Jules Verne would be proud, but I prefer programs with nature only.
RangerJo @rangercraig I know the feeling... but with our car. Can't wait until it dies to get a hybrid.
RangerJo Check out "Sunrise Earth" on Discovery HD Theatre. 60 minutes of sunrise in cool locations with no narration. http://tinyurl.com/yuzcs8
RangerJo Jeff Goldblum is great.I miss his last show "Raines" about a detective that saw/worked with the dead victims to solve their cases.
