Yet Another Man’s Blog

Tomorrow afternoon, One Man, Another Man, and yours truly will depart for Blog World in Las Vegas, NV.  So here I sit, the day before I attend the largest gathering of bloggers and social media experts in the world, and I reflect on how I’ve not been so dedicated to keeping my blog updated.  I’m going to Blog World, not so much a blogger, but rather assisting AP and John P at the convention, and making myself available to anyone who has questions about LayeredTech and FastServers Managed Hosting services, and our enterprise migration services.

I do hope, however, that interacting with Blog World attendees will spark a fire under my behind, with motivation to make more time to write on my blog.  I couldn’t be more excited about this weekend — not only do I get to visit Las Vegas, but I get to interact with some of our enterprise clients, like WordPress and Woopra.

Well, it’s late, and I must start packing.  In the off-chance that anyone reading this is going to BlogWorld this weekend, keep an eye out for our crew, and stop by to introduce yourself!

The Chicagoland area now has the most expensive gas in the nation at an average of $4.07 a gallon, and the price increases aren’t over yet, according to the Chicago Tribune. They say that gas could reach $7 per gallon because more drivers in India and China will continue to consume as much gas as normal, as American oil consumption decreases. Uggggghh!!

I try to take public transportation whenever possible, but living out the suburbs, it’s not always an option. I really love my Jeep, but I’m really starting to wonder if I should look into trading it in for a Civic or something with similar gas mileage.

Update: According to Channel 2 (CBS) the reason the prices are so high in Chicago is due to the awesome 20% tax on gas! — Link
