Can’t wait for Analytics 2011

The last time I was this glued to the TV was the 2o08 Presidential Election… but Friday night I was eager for some news.  Would I be able to attend the INFORMS 2011 Analytics Conference – or would I be furloughed and staying at home?  As the news broke of an averted government shutdown (for now) – I jumped for joy – Chicago here I come!  Rather, here I am!

I have a full set of technology workshops I’m looking forward to on Sunday.  This year I have picked workshops that are “outside” my usual line of work.  I hope that the new things I learn are quickly applicable to my work “back at the ranch”.
