Hey, Hey, Hey, It's Fall
Back from the Abyss of the Summer »

Hey, Hey, Hey, It's Fall

It has been a crazy month or so since the last time we blogged!!! :p

I have been working on getting two companies started both of which are now going.

The first one is Cyber Asset Recovery or CAR for short! Can you guess what we do? Yes in deedy that is what we do! We locate stolen or misappropriated assets (money, yachts, etc) through using our cyber skills and then arrange for those assets to make their way back to the rightful owner. It is a long process to get the assets back but the identification can happen within a few days. We already have one client, but the way this works is that we have to get the assets back before we can get paid (we take a percentage). Once we demonstrate the ability to do this, the market for these services is huge!

The second business is a little more "normal" - whatever the hell that means! We are staying stealth for a couple of more months but we have $1M of the $2.5M we need already. The business is to protect mobile social media and social networking with government grade protection. We have filed patents for our clean, neat and extremely fast approach and hope to have some customers within the next month or so. But all the meetings to get money are time consuming while designing and coding the products.

Debbie has been invaluable in adding sanity to my insanity and keeping me straight on the financials!!!  She is nothing short of AWESOME!!

Patrick has been doing an incredible amount of research for my companies and this again has been invaluable.  He has been helping define our marketing strategies as well as our positioning in the markets we have chosen.

Took a little bit of time to scoot down to Phillip's to install a tile back splash in his kitchen. Check it out:






While I made a really good Jose 1 during the summer when the tile master and obi wan - LeRon came to do all of Phillip's Place, I really did not want to be the tile master and now I know why!  One - it is hard work!  Holy Crap!  Getting all the grout lines correct and replacing several tiles in each sheet that were cut either too big or too small was a big pain in my back.  There was a part of the wall that was fixed previously but not very well so when we put tile on it - guess what - yes, it came crashing down (good think I was paying attention when LeRon taught Patrick to fix a hole), oh and yeah, the wall is not flat (silly me for thinking that) and nothing is level.  Other than that it was a fricking walk in the park!  NEVER AGAIN!

Grandma and Aunt Becky came for a short visit and we had a hoot of a time.  We laughed our butts off - we will not discuss the size of the parts that fell off but we had a good time.  Debbie was an outstanding tour guide taking them downtown and showing them the sights.  They did the Capitol (yeah you know the place - the people who are spending more money than we make and taxing the crap out of us.  Sounds like something from 1776 doesn't it), They visited Mt Vernon with the new Visitors Center, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Memorial, WWII, Viet Nam, Korean War, the Smithsonian, etc.  We end the visit with a night at our favorite restaurant - the Serbian Crown!  A few frozen Vodkas, some tasty kangaroo, some elk, some things that I can not remember and Patrick/MB had to be our designated drivers to get us home. I think we all had a GREAT time.

In November - Uncle Mark, Elizabeth and Alex are coming for Thanksgiving, Patrick is off to Panama with MB's family (yes MB is going too), and of course the really big news is that the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows comes out on the 19th!!!!

Talk to you soon!!
