Rugby World Cup 2007

Jeff September 5th, 2007

I could not believe my eyes when I saw that a tv station in the USA is actually going to be showing the Rugby World Cup and if my timezone math is correct, will actually be live for some of the games! The station is Versus; they have a calculator so you can figure out which channel they are on in your area. They have the schedule listed here on their website. I have to say I will be rooting for whoever is playing England as they won in 2003 by playing for penalties with Jonny Wilkinson. That is no way to win a match. Go for tries or go home!

I have a Date!

That may have got your attention; but it is not the kind of date 99% of you were thinking about. I have the date I am scheduled to take off for Tanzania: Oct 29th. Just in time for the weather to get ridiculous! ;) But I am still excited anyway! For those that don’t know, I am heading over there as part of a project to install VSATs, wireless networks, and personal computers so that we can have better connectivity with our field offices. This is going to be one of the best experiences of my life and I just cant wait to go! Lots of little things to tidy up though before I leave, so it is good that I have some time. If five years ago (maybe even 3 years ago) you had told me I would be going to Africa I would have told you that ‘I have a letter confirming your reservation at the nut house’! Let alone heading over there to use my computer skills to do God’s work. Life is great.
