Posted by mike | Filed under news, sports
Well, luck has found me and i was selected (from the waiting list) to obtain a couple of season tickets in the new TCF Bank stadium on the U of M campus for 2009. I have not been this excited about Gopher football in….well, never. It will be a magical and historic first game on September 12th, 2009.

PMP Certified…FINALLY!
Posted by mike | Filed under career, news
After a long fought battle with PMI and their testing material, i passed the PMP exam on Saturday, June 27th 2009. I worked on this certification for about a year between the rigorous application process, to the classes, exam prep, and studying. In the end, i would say the knowledge and structured PMI methodology I’ve been able to use in practice has been invaluable. I use the information i have learned from this experience almost every day of my job. If you are currently working in a PM role professionally or have many hours of PM work under your belt, consider getting certified. Cerficiation will provide another benefit to a potential or current employer should you have it. A link to the standards body PMI.
HTC WiMo 6 -> iPhone 3GS

My oh my, how times change. Within 6 months of purchasing the HTC Touch Pro on Sprint….i switched to AT&T to get an iPhone 3GS. No comparison and i’d have to say, it’s probably the best phone i’ve ever used. It’s nearly as functional as a full tablet PC. If you are thinking of a new phone, seriously consider an iPhone 3GS.
