I don't envy you one bit Sci. Good luck, hope all goes smoothly, and if not, maybe just one or two bumps.

Why does the woman two cars down from me in our carport insist on putting her makeup on in her car each morning? Does she not have a mirror in her bathroom? i think the more important question is why do you allow this lady into your carport?

Oh, Sci, I feel for you. That wasn't well thought out. We went to electronic board packets too, but the bank purchased identical devices for everyone, and installed the necessary security software and setting password rules before distributing them. Then they were all trained at once on IT security, how to use the device and how to access the reports.
In the long run, it's worth it though. As I saw this morning how our humidity had curled the paper in the copier I was reminded of the first law of board preparation: The likelihood of copier failure increases in direct proportion to the proximity of the board meeting.

I'm pre-med or pre-something and my advice to you is alcohol and drugs. We did the same thing 14 months ago, but gave them all the same device with everything pre-installed and ready to go (or so we thought). I spent the first 45 mintues of each board meeting for the next 6 months logging them in, resetting their passwords, finding a charger to charge the iPad (drove our chairman nuts). Slowly, one by one they stopped bringing the iPads and we ended up putting the presentation on a 80 inch screen in the board room. The liked that a lot better. Good Luck

FWIW, *Spice World* is just as bad today on Netflix as it was in '97 in the theaters.

I saw a weather report that showed a cold front moving down from Canada. Heck, even we will be in the 80s this weekend. I guess I'll have to wear pants

And if it's that "cold" outside, how will you manage to survive the sub-arctic of the conference rooms?? I expect you will have many layers.

I'm seriously thinking about packing my down jacket. And maybe the Snuggie hanging off my office door.

I can imagine it now. We're starting our presentation, and I go to introduce you, but you're missing. Then someone yells that they see smoke, and there you are behind the projector screen starting a fire to keep warm, burning conference materials and a tablecloth.

There's a new version of it. I saw the infomercial about 2:30 this morning. Its hooded and has ears. Proof that it can, in fact, get worse.

Sign me up for a Snuggie run! Sign me up to watch a Snuggie run. How funny would it be to see everyone tripping and falling while running in a blanket?!?!
