I have an old MacAir that I can’t get it to power up. If you want it and think you can get it working, I’ll bring it to Atlanta for you.

I'm writing again. This one was fun! Marketing Lessons from My Dog's Questionable Habits
On my hike, my dog CC found a big ole cow pie to roll around in. She rolls on her back, wiggling from left to right with a big smile on her face.

I'm doing it again - a webinar with @justingarrison.com and @detiber.us. This time, I'm bringing #ClusterAPI experts together. One to tell us why to love it and one to tell us why not to use it. It should be entertaining!

Who will be at #OSSummit in Amsterdam next week? I will be and at the @SideroLabs . Let me know and let's catch up!

Oh wow. A great lost.

Don't get me wrong. I like pickles. Just not everything pickled!
Poland and Slovakia are on my bucket list.
Czech Republic - I've been lucky to have been there twice!
Yes, I planned this webinar. Yes, I want to talk candidly about budget pressure & how to optimize #Kubernetes environments.
Can I keep @justingarrison.com @elchefe.me focused???! You'll have to join to see!
Guaranteed to be an hour of fun and knowledge with the three of us!

Forever when I’m in Germany, I’ll remember my dear friend Rich - we spent a lot of time together while at isc-hpc. And the time someone said I looked just like Angela Merkel and Rich’s forever hand together bow when he saw me.
Makes me smile remembering him.
Whelp - I have a few places to go before I get to @kcd-sfbayarea.bsky.social
Like CND Munich (this week!)
OSS EU (end of August)
REGISTER - this is going to be an epic event!
@lisamarienamphy.bsky.social See you there. Bring wine! :)

I love most everything about Germany...
Except the pickling of everything.
Pickle a cucumber.
Brine poultry in pickle juice.
Play pickleball.
But leave the onions alone! They are awesome. Just the way they are.
On a networking call yesterday, my friend said to me, "your dog sure is an important part of your life". Yes she is!

And my company @siderolabs.com is hosting an event at The Windjammer Thursday. As the sponsor showcase closes and before other parties start. Sign up and pop by! www.siderolabs.com/kubecon-eu-2...
Thanks @bettyjunod.bsky.social for the reminder to promote my own event. ;)
I did. Do I do something with it now? Or do I rely on the servers with the UK government to know I submitted it and be able to access it when I go through customs? ;)

New, and related, topic. Who is freaking out because they don't feel they are ready for #KubeCon? Not just the activities during the event, but the web updates I want to do, the promotions, setting up time to see people. Oh yea - my talk with Amanda!
