Best news I've heard in a long time

Pizza Cuts Cancer Risk?: "Researchers at a Milan pharmacology center found that eating one or more pizzas a week dramatically reduced the incidence of some types of cancer. A study of 8,000 Italians found that regular pizza-eaters were 59 percent less likely to contract cancer of the esophagus, while the risk of developing cancer of the colon fell by 26 percent."

Nevermind moving next weekend

Mexico City is currently the third largest 'urban area' in the world, with 29.8 million residents (depending on how you count and whom you believe). It is stricken with poverty and has some of the worst air pollution anywhere. There's even a volcano that could go off. But it has to be better than Moline, IL.

The weeks plans have changed. I'll be spending my last week with SAP giving a customer demo in Mexico City rather than... doing nothing in Moline. I've bugged my manager for months to send me to South America for something. Mexico City may not be Rio, heck it's not even in Central America, but it will be an adventure. Back Friday
