Will you be remembered by generations of youth? Our (Eagle Scout) college son said of a former leader: “Going to miss his beef jerky”. His jerky was a constant over many years of camping trips & outings for Simsbury Troop 76 scouts. RIP Robert Johns. https://t.co/JLBMvcqzSZ

@JCiparelli 6 weeks at a US Army base in PA meant I ate SOS for breakfast nearly daily during my Youth Conservation Corp (YCC) gig in 1977. Loved it back when sodium intake wasn’t tracked 😂

@eowynlotr When we lived in RVA, my eldest’s Boy Scout troop visited & we spent 2 nights sleeping & eating on the USS Yorktown. One night, the movie Tora Tora Tora (1968) was shown in the ship’s theater - the carrier was in the movie. Visit the ship & Ft. Sumter if you can!

@LizaBrings @StorkOnTheCork @IanFortey @CircuitCity Don’t forget the $1M retention bonuses given to remaining execs after laying off 3K+ employees https://t.co/w5ovbrbblg

@LizaBrings @StorkOnTheCork @IanFortey @CircuitCity Our CMO quit pretty much on the spot in complete disagreement (disgust) with CEO Phil. In-fighting in the c-suites never bodes well for a company’s survival. They had zero clue how many of us were giving up most family time to save CC.

@LizaBrings @IanFortey @LizaBrings I was right beside you while we wore our proverbial firefighter hats @CircuitCity HQ watching the slow implosion

Flying low cost carrier @BreezeAirways has its downside of last minute changes. Love low prices & flights from @Bradley_Airport but they *just* changed my college kid’s return flight to ORF was Sat PM now Fri early AM. The check-in txt was the *only* notification #WTH #DoBetter

@DaniAndi4 @clhubes My eldest (early 30s) is on the spectrum. Until he was diagnosed AND his mom & I read a ton, we didn’t understand why he wouldn’t eat (& likely punished him). Post diagnosis, we read, learned & the world changed for all of us. It was not his choice - it is who he was/is ❤️

@BentleyAudrey Last week, my wife & I gave an exceptional waitress a 40+% tip on an $80 check. Was happy to confirm the “did you leave a 40% tip” fraud alert from @CapitalOne. #workhard #payitforward

@eowynlotr What an awesome shot!

I have a Bachelor’s degree in marketing but have been in IT my entire career & have held my CISSP for 20 years. Good thing my F100 company knows that talent and cyber / IT degrees are very often not synonymous.

[InfoSecSherpa 🏔️ @InfoSecSherpa]

Note: There is a 3 question survey when you go to sign up. If you do not have a Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, IT, etc., they disqualify you from participating in the virtual hiring event --- which is completely stupid and ageist especially b/c a cyber degree is newer.

[Steve Alexander @sealexander]

@plasticlicker @AccidentalCISO @FrankMcG After holding my CISSP for > 20 years, I believe a CISSP helps you think outside the box & is more holistically than many technical hands-on certs. Often it's the key to getting past recruiting / HR & in front of hiring mgrs. CISM runs a close second at your level.

Never thought I’d see Chris Stapleton speaking at #RSAC2023 being interviewed by his brother FBI special agent Herb Stapleton

I’ve seen Angels In The Outfield many times, but is this a preview for Ducks In The Outfield at Fenway?
