Hold crap meetings and attend crap meetings and get screwed up things fixed in a rational way and make sure things that are supposed to happen by a given date actually happen by that date, so that things don't get screwed up in the first place. And help people with their stuff to make sure it doesn't get screwed up in the first place.

And lead and plan strategically and be proactive and total quality manage and other buzzwords.

I have never been to a non-crap meeting. Do they exist?

If I plan them, they are usually miserable for everyone, but not total crap.

Or so I like to think. In a way. I need to make them non-miserable.

Most of them have at least half the people calling in. Fed-Ex-ing cake would not really be a reasonable trust expense.

Funny. Maybe they want you to be already you.

One of my former hair dressers started a salon with a couple of her buddies. They called it Salon Chevaux. I said to her, "shouldn't it be Salon Cheveux?" She said "no silly, chevaux means hair." I said, "um, I may be wrong, but I think it means horse."

So by the time she had done the research and tried to change the business name, they went out of business.

And to your other response, as if Day_Jay Vu isn't already mispronounced.

Catering, good catering is KEY.

You sound like value added to me!

Nice thing about last place is that improvement is almost guaranteed
 

I got a chance last night to see the new NFL refs uniforms, and I'm unimpressed. Half the time, I thought that the refs were the line judges.

The Texans, btw, looked better than I've seen them in a very long time. Which isn't really saying much; it's not like there's anywhere to go but up. But progress is progress. And Mario Williams is a very big man.

There weren't any first stringers playing at all, so I got to see four quarterbacks I've never heard of before vieing for the number three spot. (I'm pretty sure that Sage Rosenfels has the number two spot well secured.)

The big question is running back. Antowain Smith looked really good, but he's getting kinda up there in age. There was a kid named Chris Taylor who looked good too. No one knows what will happen to Dominack Davis, though apparently today is doomsday for the ones that dont' make the team. For some reason, he doesn't qualify for injured reserve, since he was OK before training camp started. The knee: such a fickle joint.

All in all, though, I'm just really happy that football season is starting again and I can be excited about the Texans for a few games before the inevitable crash and burn.

Anyone been to Lisbon and stayed at a hotel they would recommend?

I don't need recommendations based on LessInSordidity-type criteria as this will be a Wholesome Family Trip.

Cheers very much in advance thanks,

Portugal was great. I went as a kid. All I remember is beautiful beaches [the Algarve] and amazing seafood.
