Greetings from another branch of the Bardill Family

Mrs. Bardill (grandmother of little Abigail and the third from the right) took a moment out of her birthday celebration to say hi to the 2.0. Hope all is well out your way, Mrs. Bardill!

Greetings from Berkeley

The Full-Time MBA Office at Haas, my MBA alma mater dear, recently checked in to say hi. Amy, Julia, Kate and Dan, I hope you're all doing great, and thanks for the awesome picture!

Congrats to my Hollywood Friends

It turns out that more congratulations are in order, this time to my great friends Megan and Wade.

Pictured here in Venice, Italy holding up traffic to take one of the coolest non-baby pictures featured on the 2.0 in recent months, both Megan and Wade spent last year working on TV shows that received Emmy nominations earlier today. Granted, we're talking about the same Emmy's that bestowed two trophies last year on So You Think You Can Dance, but still--an award's an award, right?

Megan, incidentally, was the writers assistant for the criminally short lived Creature Comforts USA, which is up for Outstanding Animated Program (For Programming Less Than One Hour).

Wade was and is the script coordinator for Saving Grace, the star of which, Holly Hunter, received a nod for best actress in a drama. I'm pretty sure that Holly gets nominated by default because she's really famous and she talks with that crazy mouth thing, but it's still an honor for the show.

Congrats again, guys, and thanks so much for the fantastic picture and only European shot in the gallery!

The Army 2.0 Web Album

I've been meaning to post this link for a while.

Basically, the nice people at Blogger aggregate all the pictures I've ever uploaded to the blog into a single convenient Picasa album (thanks, nice people at Blogger!)

So never again will you have to spend hours digging through the archives to find that shot of Frownie from back in July that you liked so much.

And in case some of our new visitors stumble upon any pictures of guys who look like me, just with really awesome hair--it's true, I celebrated my recall to the Army by attempting to recreate the George Harrison circa 1969 look as accurately as I possibly could (something I failed at rather spectacularly, or so the wife would have you believe).
