Cecil's PO

I read Marlow's first column last week, and I have to say that I'm impressed.  I've been in the EDI world for a while, but he brought out a couple items I hadn't (yet) thought to complain about.

Cecil's Getting Work

Over the last couple weeks I've traveled from Maine to the Carolinas. Needless to say I've stopped at a few restaurants along the way. During my breakfast stops, the scene is always the same... people reading the newspaper.

Cecil's Offline

I live in an online world anymore. That is... whenever I'm in a place where I can get a connection. Luckily some of my favorite (as well as some of my least favorite) restaurants offer WiFi service. And even when WiFi isn't available, I have my trusty cell phone that I can either use directly as a web browser/email client, or connect it to my laptop as a modem.

Cecil's Splits

Last week I was in Charleston, SC visiting a client. While I was there I was able to meet up with my newfound buddy, Marlow Atticus for dinner.  We had a great meal sitting outside on the upper deck of Shem Creek Grill along Shem Creek, in Mount Pleasant, SC., watching the fishing boats and the dolphins crusing up and down the river.

Cecil’s Addition/Subtraction

Last week I was in the New York area, and for part of the week I was in New York City with a client. For me, New York City is both a fantasy land and a place of terror. What I love about the place is the never ending availability of eating places… and not just restaurants, but everything from low-rent hole in the walls to the most outrageous (and outrageously priced) food experiences. My terror arises from having to decide which places to try, and which to leave for another time. But come to think of it, that’s not really all that terrorizing. It just gives me a reason to schedule another trip.

Cecil's Good News

In this time of holiday spirit, gift giving, and general good will, I have a heart-warming story to share. OK, it's not quite "It's a Wonderful Life," but the characters are nearly as surprising as those in the movie.

Cecil's Single Version of the Truth

I don't know if you've noticed that I've been silent for the last several weeks. Actually, I hope that you have noticed, but regardless... I've been in a whirlwind frenzy, driving around the country trying to reconcile a variety of versions of what seems to be one story, and it's nearly made me lose my appetite. But only just nearly.

Cecil's Backroads

A couple weeks ago, I was cruising through a section of Central California on my way to a client's offices. Since I had a couple days on my hands, I took a route that bypassed the main highways. On my way, I stopped in for lunch at a local restaurant that I had been to before.

Cecil's Empty Plate

Last week I was in San Jose, California. San Jose is a nice enough town, but when the sun goes down, it's hard to believe that that there are somewhere around 1 million people there. It becomes very empty, at least in the part of town I was staying. Read more...

Cecil's Night Out

Like many of you, I was at the UConnect conference in Dallas earlier this month. I had a great time seeing some old friends, some clients, and also meeting some new friends. I stopped by the ec-bp.org booth in the exhibit hall, to say hello to Scott, and noticed that he was giving away a Chumby. Read more...
