Aberdeen

Well, it's been a grueling week. It's been all about teaching me what my new group in Aberdeen has been doing for the past couple of years and planning how I need to help guide them for the next year. And in the midst, I had to handle a couple of mini-crises in Houston. All part of the job now...

Anyway, I wanted to share a couple of more pictures. (actually, I'm just putting-off packing and heading to bed before my flight tomorrow morning)


First, I'm going to stop bitching about gas prices. While driving between the hotel and office, I saw this and had to pull-over and take a picture. Let me do the math for you: 1.05 Pounds/liter * 3.785 liters/U.S. gallon * 2 dollars/pound = $7.95 /gallon. Yes, that's right--$8 per gallon.

On the more fun side, we grabbed a couple of drinks at the Soul bar last night. Yep, it's a church that was converted into a bar. And they named it "Soul". Good stuff.

That could never happen in America. What an awesome idea. I wanna go!

Yeah, my boss and I said kept commening on how a place like that would make a killing here in Houston. We'd get tons of free press from the religious freaks screaming on how it marks the downfall of American society.
