Keeping up good health in mid-life I have not focused on exercising for a long time. Then I realise that while entering my mid-life, regular exercise is really really immportant. Over the past 5 weekends, I have started swimming (in swimming pool) again. I started with 6 x 25M 5 weeks ago, to 14 x 25M the past Sunday. There were a lot of pain. Now, I don't really feel anything so, all those your mother or your doctor has been telling you are true: keep exercising and it is not that difficult and I believe it is good for health. My goal is to reach 30 x 25M for each session. Will report again here when I have done that.

Complaints Having worked in IT circle for 20 years or so, I do not get emotional easily. (Good EQ!?) But I got mad recently at a co-worker whom I have never met (from other location), because of some rediculous arrangement that was made. I sent to the person an email pointing out the error and at the same time, some words that, on 2nd thought, was unnecessary. But I can gurantee that those words are NOT personal at all. No insult, no fowl languages! Ha, one day later, this person's superior send me an email, copy, my boss, his boss, and his boss's boss, pointing out that, my wordings wasn't appropriate. Well fair enough. I could have done better. But I can sense that the orignal work-issue wouldn't improve. These guys take it too personal and have not taken the time to look at the core issues to see if anything can be improved. Pity! For those who see this, wish me good luck that I'd still be around!

Wireless also works well with my home AP and perhaps AP in public areas. Company's VPN software also works. It is almost perfect, except for its weight (but screen is 15") and battery life (a bit below 3 hours). Humm...a totally M$ free work environment: SunRay at work, JDS notebook on the road!

Viral infection Got serious viral infection after my trip to Shanghai. Finally cannot stand it any more and went to see a doctor yesterday. I was holding a local magazine named "LinuxPilot" when I went into the doctor's office. He commented that he did not know what Linux is and guess what, he read only Med magazines. Linux is not that popular yet! (2004-06-10 00:14:26.0/2004-06-10 00:12:53.0) Permalink Comments [1] Trackback: http://blogs.sun.com/raycml/entry/viral_infection

Best Product in the world What is the best product in the world? Well, making the guess a bit easier, what is the best IT product in the world? You just cannot get good enough products. You'll get very good sales person who know what and when to leverage what is in store for sales. Mobile phone sales persons will change their pitch every 2-3 months and sell what they have piled up behind the counter. We need more of us who can react quickly enough!
