My Number Is 10
I had my first night on a Sleep Number bed. I don’t know how high the numbers go, but my bed was set to ‘50′, which in Mattese means “thick lumber atop dense cinderblocks”. After quite a while holding down the “softer” button, it getting progressively better every moment, my thumb finally got tired, and I looked at the number: 10 (Which in Mattese is “fluffy pillows atop flowing angel hair”). I’m probably actually a ‘0′ (no jokes, wise-asses) but was too lazy and tired to press the button any further.
Today at EdSec was actually one of the most useful days I’ve ever attended. The sessions had depth, the ideas from some people were innovative and not “we bought an $X000 thing so we didn’t have to work” or “we paid $X0,000 to a consulting firm because we didn’t want to do it” … It was refreshing.
