Comments on: DEC 2008 – This one’s for you, Wook http://eternallyoptimistic.com/2008/03/10/dec-2008-this-ones-for-you-wook/ Wed, 01 Sep 2010 03:24:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: The "Late" Wook Lee http://eternallyoptimistic.com/2008/03/10/dec-2008-this-ones-for-you-wook/comment-page-1/#comment-343 The "Late" Wook Lee Wed, 12 Mar 2008 17:16:52 +0000 http://eternaloptimist.wordpress.com/?p=250#comment-343 To quote Samuel Clemens a.k.a. Mark Twain, the rumors of my death are greatly exaggerated. :) I have to admit that I was amused by the results of the first Pro Am challenge, though I am somewhat dismayed to have an eponymously named event while still in the pre- rather than posthumous condition. Ah, Wook Lee, indeed, I knew him well.... LOL! To be honest, I think I would have tried to combine the other two elements of this years challenge, namely the airline safety instruction card and the Star Trek control panel for AD along with the movie poster. I was thinking of Star DEC: The Unrecovered Forest or something along those lines. Ah well. It would have been worth it to have had the opportunity to see what "joe" Richards would look like with a Klingon turtleshell forehead. Pamela knows full well what happens when I get the proverbial bee in my bonnet from my inimitable muse, Stuart Kwan. I have fond memories of a certain interpretive dance that was performed along with some examples of large-scale origami and a rather extensive butchering of a beloved Dr. Seuss tale. I am fortunate that no video evidence has surfaced on YouTube. I'll have to try extra hard to make the next DEC, but the specter of the dreaded "Day Job" continues to loom large on the horizon. Still, WS08 has lunched and we have Windows 7 (or whatever they are calling it in the bowels of Microsoft these days - whatever happened to Blackcombe?) as the next major landfall. Bon voyage. Smooth sailing remains to be seen, but I'm sure the denizens of activedir.org will do their very best to make the billows smooth and bright. To quote Samuel Clemens a.k.a.
