Project mode

Chinese NY has passed, it's still damned cold, and I haven't been writing. I've been in that slow organizational self recovery mode of "getting my shit done."
This ranges from Homer Simpson stuff like: painting walls, building speaker shelves, fixing video cameras, rewiring 1/4" cables over to XLR, etc...to Dilbert stuff like financial reports, hiring, training, developing SOPs, and file cleaning, to blue jean geeky stuff like implementing new backup procedures, building forums for inter-office communication, and trying out new hosting tools, to goatee-boy stuff like building Tiff her band website, teaching my god-son how to use a CMS, and adding scanned articles and MP3s to the Living Room site, to setting up new business projects (which unfortunately can't be detailed here), and writing executive summaries describing how IT will make YOU more MONEY. I have long since realized that it takes more time convincing someone to accept what you are doing (and hopefully making some money from it) than it does to just go ahead and do it and make it happen. The outcome is the same either way. It works or it doesn't. Since time is the precious commodity in this equation, which makes more sense? This is my motto for 2004. Don't waste my time BOZO. My personal equation is simple: Raise more money, see less movies. Raise less money, see more movies.
Christofu is finally joining the blog world, and will cronicle his process of being a guy with no kids, to a guy with two kids, including dealing with standard pregnancy stuff, to going to China to pick up his new adopted child. Cool.

3q2u is written by Corbett Wall, and is really just a window into my quirky little world. It's also a way for me to exercise my thoughts and make random comments outside of cultural, language, or business barriers.
3q2u is an acronym which if said in Chinese and Japanese sounds like "Thank you to you!" Dumb but easy to remember. More >>
