Ahh, the weekend.

Glad the week is over.  Today we had to move a bunch of HEAVY panels at work.  They are putting in a new clean room, so the old ‘temporary’ clean room had to go.  The ‘temporary’ clean room was made from welded steel.  Each panel was about 6 or 7 feet by 15 feet!  It took about 8 to 12 guys to lift a panel.  One was so large, we had to cut it in half, or it would of not fit through the doors.  In case you were wondering, it came in through some windows using a crane originally.   Then I also had to figure out why my testers were not testing a new part correctly for customers visiting from Sweden.  Figured it out eventually, it was a head scratcher until I saw the schematics for the part, and it made sense though.  I have to say one thing about my degree, I do ocassionally use what I learn in college in the real world.  In this case it was a resistor network that was being formed.

If you into listening to streaming radio over the internet, check out this site:
Dandelion Radio – Home Page
It is a very nice, eclectic mix.  Only 20 listeners max to the MP3 stream, but is it streaming at 128kbps and sounds better than most.

Glenn is doing well, had his 6 month checkup.  Have to go back next week to get some shots.  Never heard of a hospital running out of vaccine before, but I guess it can happen.  I know some of them require chicken eggs to be made, so supply is limited.

Tiffany is doing well, all things considered.  She keeps the cleanest house I have seen with a child.  Most houses I have seen with kids are filthy messes.  I get to help over the weekend, poopies, yeah!
