Andy in Armonk
Well, it's official now, I am a real IBM Rational Employee. They flew me to the IBM Learning Center in NY to learn all about IBM, and being a part of Big Blue's culture. It's pretty exciting seeing how I never worked for a company over 20 people my entire life, and now I am one of 330,000... IBM swag for everyone!

River Vids
When not shilling for SightSpeed, or teaching entrepreneurship, I am an avid whitewater kayaker. In the late Spring, I even teach whitewater kayaking at Cornell.

Kayaking with Brad is Fun!
The basic kayaking class is geared towards anyone, but this semester we are going to teach an intermediate whitewater kayaking course at Cornell as well.
These courses are open to everyone - not just students. Everyone from the community is invited. I can guarantee it's a good time, and hopefully one day you will be as good as my co-instructor Jamie. See him demonstrate his advanced skills in these two videos from Cascadilla Creek in Ithaca:

Bruce on the Rio Negro
Bruce sent out another awesome video from Brazil. This time he took this video while racing down the Rio Negro river in a speedboat.

Boat to the Heart of Rioness
Then he had their guide explain what the Rio Negro was all about. You may think it is all about water, but as this video history of the Rio Negro explains, it is much more!

Pointing out the History
One of the most interesting things he says is that this area doesn't have many mosquitoes. How awesome is that! It's warm, tropical river with no mosquitoes. Sounds like heaven.

Brazilian Monkey
Bruce went to Brazil and caught this video of the friendly monkeys.

Monkey Dance!
As many people know, I am a big fan of monkeys. There are fewer things funnier than a monkey. Adam would probably say a donkey is funnier, but I maintain that monkeys are still in the lead in the competition for funniest animal.

Starting with Sin, ending with Sin
Funny place this Las Vegas. I was in town for CES, and I should be used to the gambling and all that, but really, do you need it right as you get off the plane? Apparently the answer is yes. It's comical in its own way.
Lucky Flight!
I guess I shouldn't be too surprised - it's Vegas. You gotta give'm credit the full embrace of the place. Pretty soon those guys with the little flippy cards with "escorts" on them will be in baggage claim. Vegas.
