United Squeezes One More Passenger On-Board
Well...here is something you don't often see...but I guess happens all of the time. On my flight from Denver to Dulles last week, I happened to look out the window to see United add just one more passenger to its flight. Apparently, sold out doesn't really mean sold out sometimes.

Circular Rainbow (with plane inside)
So...here is my once-in-a-lifetime event. My wife and I were flying to Miami a little while ago and happened to look out the window to see this amazing circular rainbow. Now, I know "all" rainbows are in fact circular, but given that 99% of us see them from the ground, it almost never looks that way.
Then it didn't end there. While we were mesmerized by the rainbow itself, as we watched, things got even more amazing when we noticed the shadow of our plane *inside* the rainbow.
Absolutely amazing. Has anyone ever seen this phenomenon?
Full disclosure...other than adding a little contrast via Picassa, I have made no changes to these photos. And if you want to know more about circular rainbows...check out this link: http://www.wonderquest.com/rainbow-circle.htm

Myers Briggs Battle
So...took my first Myers-Briggs test today in probably 15 years and it was pretty enlightening. Now, I don't think I am a "journalist" like these results say...but I do agree with the general conclusion. More importantly, it seems that this does help to highlight one of the key challenges I have had recently with some co-workers. For better or worse, I have not been able to "connect" with these folks recently...often leading to frustration on their part and mine. There are probably lots of reasons for that...but this test could be highlighting one of the most obvious ones. It won't solve the communications issue...but it should help with understanding where we are all coming from.
So...what are you?
