Don’t Stop Believing

A week ago, daughter and I had a VIP pass to watch a free concert hosted by my employer. One local band played exclusively songs popularized by the famous group Journey.

You know...we may have gone "Separate Ways" after high school...

...and then started wondering during that time "Who’s Crying Now".

Our grand reunion 25 years later found ourselves meeting once again with "Open Arms"...

...and we "Faithfully" promised to keep in touch after.

We tried and struggled to be become one solid, cohesive unit...

...while we have that grand vision to become relevance to others in need.

Well friends and classmates, please "Don’t Stop Believing".

Anyway, the place was rockin’...

And in case you are not an avid follower, our very own Arnel Pineda is now the lead singer of Journey.

myHeart Is Burning

It's all good now with the fire being contained efficiently. We're so equipped with the latest mapping technology that we will win in the end...GIS ROCKS! ;-)

From where I stand next to my office window I can see in the horizon an orange glow and a burning desire to conquer the steep slope and dry bushes fueled with the long drought of summer compounded by low humid temperature reaching boiling point. The mountain fire is inching towards the vicinity of suburban Los Angeles and it so far destroyed about 50 or so houses.

I am safe for now but others aren’t.

You’re so angry….chill out boy…chill out! You’re giving me too much work with all this fire perimeter mapping stuff I have to spit out of Harry, the plotter.

You shouldn’t be that mad! Life is too short to let yourself consumed with all this non-sense and unhealthy feelings towards us. We have to learn to co-exist or else we don’t get to accomplish things we want to….help us so we can help you..dumbass!
