Trip to SF

So, good times in San Francisco (except for missing the family and having to sit through work related stuff). There was something pretty cool; a guy from Boeing gave a presentation on how they provide monitoring data on their aircraft to their customers...live plane data via satellite. No sooner said than done he'd pulled up a website and presented United's fleet of aircraft and all the little error messages from the on board computers...they track them to provide alerts in case a service is required...kinda cool! Even better when I get on the plane to Denver and the pilot says; "we're just getting a message from control that we have a fault...we're trying to ensure it's something that we can ignore before we depart."

Went to a great steak place called Harris' steak house for dinner their aged thick bone-in NY steak was pretty freaking amazing. When one of the other guys from Roche asked if they could write "Roche Diagnostics AG" it came back "Roche Diagnostics space AG." Pretty funny stuff...i think you had to be there tho. Had some great whiskey and some that tasted like iodine which wasn't...

I actually got caught by the bush man on Fisherman's Warf...freaked me out...in and out burger and wow Rubio's fish tacos were freaking amazing! Other than food San Francisco is okay...very pricey and loads of homeless people (or maybe they're just really dirty)...and hippies. My taxi cab was a Prius...no joke!

Oh it's also a dead zone for AT&T and Verizon (although Verizon seemed a little better) so make sure you bring your own carrier pigeon or really fast midget to pass on messages. Maybe they think the radio waves will damage the trees or something!

Overall it's a fun place to visit for free...other than that I'd probably go somewhere else on the west coast in California as long as I can get those fish tacos...

United screwed me over and not only cancelled my flight on Sunday but also put me in the back of the plane in a center seat...who does that to me!?!? It was worth a quick complaint online so at least i'm 500 miles better off but seriously...i'm a freaking premier executive damn it!!
