More About This Website

This site started as my blog on ITToolbox. Along the way I found: First, I found that I enjoyed writing a blog; Second, I found that a surprising number of people were reading me regularly; Third, I found that I had a lot to say, mostly about delivering quality software, but also about my adventures in code, and about the people close to me; Fourth, I found that my readers enjoyed the "non-IT Stuff" as much as the down and dirty details of managing software development. So it is the coneblog because it is by me, Larry Cone. My goal is to entertain and educate. I hope that you get some of both!

Skycam Images > On the set of "The Natural" (7) > Morgan Fairchld

You may have seen Morgan recently on Old Navy ads. She was on the set because her boyfriend was the camera operator. At this point she was a major starlet, equivalent to Paris Hilton today. In Buffalo, there were hourly radio bulletins about Morgan sightings. I had a poster of her in the software shop, and was awe-struck to see her in the flesh. My shameless buddy Rich, the Project Manager, dragged me up to her and introduced me, and told her how she was my inspiration during the long nights of coding for the Skycam Software development effort. Ms. Fairchild was charmed, and allowed me to take her picture.

I've still got your poster, Ms. Fairchild- hot as ever. I'm still a big fan. Call me next time you are out at QVC and lets do lunch.
