My French-Canadian family is well-known for playing games (mostly card games). One of their favorites is Cribbage. The way some of them count the points really cracks me up. I can still hear my (great) Uncle Joe counting:
15-2 and that will do
15-4 and the rest don't score
As they're "pegging" around the board and get to 31, there's always the "31 for 2" if anyone can make it.
I turned 31 this year and that phrase pops into my mind every time I think about my age.
This isn't my first blog (it's more like my 5th) and I'm not "just getting into" the interwebs, and most importantly I am not making some kind of silly resolution to blog all the time or anything useless like that. Really, I'm just trying to "unify my web presence".
My name is Rob(ert) Bailey and I have an extremely vanilla name, so I've had to work hard to choose a name with which I can distinguish myself. I made a valiant attempt at claiming "baileyrt" and have succeeded in many areas. But I believe I'm losing that battle. So, I'll try "FamilyCIO" for a while and see where that gets me.
If there are any other families out there that are looking to outsource their CIO tasks, please don't farm them off on me. I can barely keep up with my own family. ;-)
