Rex is having Tartini with the boys after tennis, bicycling and basketball.

Sportscenter just said Lincecum is the best pitcher in baseball right now. I have to agree.

Enjoyed some great fireworks from the field at the nearby high school.

Getting ready to BBQ for the entire family. Happy 4th to everyone.

Mandarin tutor came over to our house this morning to help a group of 6 kids practice their speaking and listening.

Ryan Sadowski impressive in his second start with 7 shutout innings.

Rex got a photo with Mike Holmgren at Pier 39. Very friendly guy who is originally from the Bay Area.

Rex having lunch with the family at the Ferry Building in the City. Amazing day.

Getting 4 new O2 sensors and re-programmed climate control for my BMW M5. This is going to be expensive.

Working to get up-to-date on admin stuff: appraisals, activities, expenses, procurement, approvals, IT updates...whew.

My M5 is in the shop today. Might need an O2 sensor, A/C blower control and Inspection 2.

Just finished up a lively panel on Next-Generation Data Centers, virtualization and cloud computing at Cisco Live 2009. 8 panelists, about 120 attendees.

Oracle launches Fusion Middleware 11g. Huge new release. Foundation for Fusion Apps. http://event.on24.com/event...

Rex is enjoying beer and burger with a couple of old Flems.

I'm going to be speaking on the Next-Generation Data Center panel (ITMATO-2327) at Cisco Live 2009 tomorrow in Moscone Center (4:00-5:30, Moscone S303). http://www.ciscolive2009.com/schedul....

@ComcastBill Unhappy with Comcast. Too many compressed HD channels with tiling. Requiring DTAs everywhere causes loss of my Tivo & PC DVR.

Our family doctor says it's okay to go to Cabo.

@tcarothers Agree Google Voice isn't new, but it's free. Like Unified Messaging, might be too complicated for avg peeps.

Tim Lincecum throws a 2-hit shutout complete game. 3 of his last 4 outings have been complete games. Along with Cain, some dominant stuff.

Tim Lincecum throwing a 1-hitter through 6 against the Cards

Damn Comcast

US had a good chance to beat Brazil in Confederation soccer today. Would have been unbelievable.

Rex taking the kids to watch Up.

Checking out CFL and LED replacements for all our recessed lighting. Dimmable CFLs still have a delay and dim in steps. LEDs are very blue-white. Hmmm.

Rex is having dim sum at HK Flower Lounge with my aunt from Australia.

Working on installing an Apple ultra-thin aluminum keyboard and Mighty Mouse on my Windows Vista machine.

Rex is having a Stella Artois, caesar and penne family style.

Busy reviewing and commenting on a big list of things.

I did a Grid Economics video webcast with Forrester and HP. My part starts at around 26:30. http://www.hptechtalks.com/hp_tech....
