Cecil's Conundrum

I get a lot of time to think as I cruise across the US. Over the last two weeks I traveled between Maine and Arkansas with two side trips to Atlanta and Indianapolis. For a change, I'm not even going to go into the foods I encountered along the way. Some left fond memories while others (very few) would have been better viewed at 65 miles per hour as I drove by the restaurants.

Cecil's Holiday Wish

Last year as I waited between client appointments I penned a Holiday rhyme.  This year I thought I would share it with you again, as several of you subscribed this year.  The thoughts may be a year old, but the sentiment is still the same...  Be fair in your dealings, do the right thing for all concerned, and stand firm for your principals.

Cecil's Cross Border Advice

Over the last few weeks I've been cruising the Southwest, and happy to be away from he cold and snow that attacked the Northwest. As you might expect, I've nearly burned out my mouth tasting a wide variety of peppers and pepper-prepared dishes that seem to show up at every turn in the road out here. I'm no longer sure where the border is between the US and Mexico, but I can tell you that I'm thankful there's no legislation on the transport of food culture across the border.

Cecil's Mile High

Hello All; Yes, I've been absent for a few weeks. But I'm back on the road again after a painfully long adventure into an implementation, subsequent removal, and finally a successful deployment. But first, the important issues... Read more...

Cecil's Heartbreak

As I write this I'm pulled off the side of a road somewhere in North Central Texas. My heart is broken but I'm looking forward to my next destination which is where I'll be (and hopefully you'll be as well) by the time you read this.

Cecil's Unveiling

I think that I was even more thrilled than Scott was when I showed up at the UConnect Conference in Orlando last week. According to him, it was the first time I'd kept a promise to show up... at least on time.

Cecil's PO

I read Marlow's first column last week, and I have to say that I'm impressed.  I've been in the EDI world for a while, but he brought out a couple items I hadn't (yet) thought to complain about.

Cecil's Getting Work

Over the last couple weeks I've traveled from Maine to the Carolinas. Needless to say I've stopped at a few restaurants along the way. During my breakfast stops, the scene is always the same... people reading the newspaper.

Cecil's Offline

I live in an online world anymore. That is... whenever I'm in a place where I can get a connection. Luckily some of my favorite (as well as some of my least favorite) restaurants offer WiFi service. And even when WiFi isn't available, I have my trusty cell phone that I can either use directly as a web browser/email client, or connect it to my laptop as a modem.

Cecil's Splits

Last week I was in Charleston, SC visiting a client. While I was there I was able to meet up with my newfound buddy, Marlow Atticus for dinner.  We had a great meal sitting outside on the upper deck of Shem Creek Grill along Shem Creek, in Mount Pleasant, SC., watching the fishing boats and the dolphins crusing up and down the river.
