Next morning there were the strawberries
as Jane
prepared me for another day along with this breakfast
and coffee
so that I could look for the elusive building 112
where this gentleman
could sign me in.
Wonder of wonders, who should appear again but Maria
as I was winding down with Mark Lewin
and getting ready to see Chris Fraser
Dave Hanson
and Michael Cohen
before a quick meeting with John Nordlinger
who also set me on my way to see Nathan.
Nathan's office was, as always, a museum. In the conference room, I did a
closeup
and then some wider shots
of his adding machines and typewriters. In his office, there were more
instruments
and a dinosaur
meters in a case
and his desk
and finally more meters
though the piece of the original Eniac is still at home. Nathan
was very vibrant and our conversation would have been endless if I
didn't have to pull out of this parking space
and head to this one
to get back to Microsoft where they had this sign for the collection
before I hooked up with David Treadwell
to get things going on our joint MSFT-PUCS project.
After giving Janice
my car, I had this food
and this company
of a man who couldn't wait to get to King Salmon, Alaska to go
fishing for a while (and maybe couldn't wait to get away from
a lunatic who would take his picture at this Taco Bell?)
Once the plane landed, Dansyl
were there to greet me and got into the mood for a better picture
as we talked about heading to dinner where I got this sign
for my collection
and this pizza
and wine
for my stomach. Dan's dessert
really amused our neighbors
even though they couldn't solve the mystery of the bumps on the bottoms
of the pots. Dansyl ate some more
and then we headed back and were careful
with their neighbor's car.
