@joe to my business associates, but you can call me Joe Ortiz.

The Facts

Listen to the gossip.

I work in the IT/Marketing/Social fields, a Culture Vulture in heart and an one part geek in a all-rounder way!

Anything new?

I saw a 85% partial eclipse from my viewpoint which is better than expected despite the occasional cloud cover. Very cool to see it in all sense.

Until the next one (if it ever comes in my lifetime)!

Also, I thought Susan and Geena’s performances are their best ones in their careers and the screenwriting was very good despite what some think otherwise.

Tonight's movie watch: a film that should be high up there with Ridley Scott's top tier films in Thelma and Louise and I'm glad more people are giving this the praise it deserved.

Testing the UPS systems now that I got it replaced and it all green good. You never know when an outage happens and you need to use backup power for safe shutdowns without losing much data.

Also it's why regular backups are a must!

@mandy Did you get that recently or a year or so back? I know there's older merch that are better from what I read.

@mandy I came across someone who is wearing a Grand Rapids Griffins sweater [mastodon.social], and the quality isn't the best according to him. Is it true that AHL merch isn't that well done as I thought?

@33MHz A+ and Network+ are the two. Thankfully there's no exams and stuff like that to renew.
