At the beginning of the week, I started feeling like a real IT guy. Timmy gave me my first IT tool for my bag, and it started feeling official. It appears no IT guy’s bag should be without a USB to IDE or Sata Adapter Cable. Sure enough the opportunity arose today and man was I glad I had this tool in the bag. I came to the rescue, like IT guys do every day with the ability to grab some very important data from a useless laptop. The look on the end user’s face when he could access is seemingly nonexistent data was elating. While every other day we get shat on, today, the IT guy shined pulling gold out of a lump of shit.

My name is Matt, I’m an IT guy.

It’s about that time of year again when we are all Irish for a day to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. It’s a time when we have lots of fun and celebrate life with friends, family and random people who are doing the same thingJ. This year, before that great celebration, March 9th at Kitty Hoynes, we have a chance to bring joy to some Children who might not have the chance to celebrate. This day is St. Baldricks Day, a day for us to help out with Children’s Cancer Research.

Last year the group at Kitty Hoynes rose over $200,000 for this great cause and this year we are looking for more. A couple hundred of us will shave our heads for Children’s Cancer, and I’m asking you for your support and donations.

St. Baldrick’s research grants help fill crucial funding gaps at medical institutions where children are treated for cancer, ensuring the finest care for every child. Since the first event in 2000, St. Baldrick’s volunteers have raised over $34 million for life-saving research 2008 promises even more exciting progress.

For those of you, who hate my hair and want to see it gone, dig deep into your pockets for the pleasure of seeing a barber’s electric sheers cut through the hair that gives me stength ;). If you love my wavy locs and don’t want to see them go, please donate for the kids, it’s a great cause. Either way, try to make it to Kitty Hoynes from 11 – whenever because all tips will be donated to the causeJ.
