Last Sunday we competited for tailgater of the year. Since we had won tailgater of the game the week before we were competing against the other winners from the previous home games. I've gotta say, we went big. In fact, when we first set up the lady in charge told us it was too big and we'd be disqualified. That didn't happen and we had 3 judges come by and walk through. I thought it was in the bag, but unfortunaetly we lost... :( We won't talk about the group that won...

Sabbatical...
Probably the best thing about working for Intel, is the sabbatical program. Every 7 years of work, you get a 2 month sabbatical, this can be added to with vacation time to take almost 4 months off work! Pretty awesome that a company so big still follows through with this. As your time of eligibility aproaches, it's pretty much all anyone talks about.
Most people travel to far away lands, spend time with friends/family, work on that home project that you've been meaning to get to, or a favorite hobby. We'll my manager is coming back from his next week, and tradition is, you "decorate" or make a mess in the person's cube for when they get back. Might not be the most productive way to get back to work after being gone for months, but can't change that now...
Well my boss has been spending most of his sabbatical up in Northern Arizona at his cabin and with his family, and has been on a few different hunting trips. He's currently still up there Elk Hunting with his bow right now. So as for decorations we decided to wallpaper his office with hunting targets/hay/leaves/camouflage, this wasn't quite enough and needed a little more... So I went online and found some pictures of a Elk and a Deer, used a software program to trace them out and cut them out using a piece of equipment to make these cardboard cut outs.
The Elk is walking through the middle of his office just past the storage cabinet, the deer is jumping out, and since he hadn't killed anything yet, all the arrows we cut out are missing. Should find out Monday if he actually got anything or not, and we might have to do some re-arranging...
