Busy bees....

Posted by Karen Ebner Oct 14, 2008

 

Hi Team!  Seems there is interest in meeting up, but scheduling may be a bit difficult across the team. In the interim, if we all keep posting scheduled events or any interest in collaborative events (ie: Dave's post about SOMA & Monte's) we can certainly expect to connect here or there.  I look forward to hearing what you are all up too and meeting you face to face.  Still waiting on my own gear...eager to get started!!

 

 

In the meantime, thought I would share this little funny about 401(K):

 

If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago you would have $49.00 left.+
+     With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1, 000.00.+
+     With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.+
+     But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have had $214.00.+
+     Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.+
+     It's called the 401-Keg…..

TGIF!!! Team MGD 60 - PHX

Posted by Karen Ebner Oct 10, 2008

 

Hi teammates - Great to "e-meet" you and introduce myself.  I'm Karen and totally revved up about being a part of this team. I live in East Phoenix (44th St/Thomas Area) and spend a great bit of time bouncing around this area for "social" activities. However, I work up in the Scottsdale Airpark area as director, talent management for a digital marketing company.

 

 

Moving to Phx from NJ (GO PHILLIES!!!    ) 8 years ago, I never would have imagined that I would be enjoying the life I lead today. I am all for running, biking (road/mtn), hiking, camping, team sports, triathlons, adventure/urban races....but I balance that out with "bar sports" like trivia/darts/pool/shuffleboard, cards, pubcrawls, "cruiser-cocktail-crusades" and the like. 

 

 

My friends refer to me as "Julie" (Cruise director from Love Boat), since I am the 'go to' for getting things organized and tend to come up with some neat ideas.  I have also been able to motivate a number of "less than motivated" folks to "GET OFF THE COUCH" which is a motto I try to promote.

 

 

In addition to a Scottsdale Co-ed Softball team, and tuesday night tempe town lake small running group runs, my upcoming events

already planned include: 10/11 Cactus Cha Cha Ru, 10/19 South Mountain

Run, 10/26 SOMA Relay-bike, 11/22 Mud Run, 12/5 Cave Creek Luminary

Run, 1/19 PFChangs 1/2

 

 

I am competitive, that is, until it takes away the fun...I like to keep it real. Seeing others have fun is a big part of this.

 

 

It would be great to meet up with everyone one of these days and brainstorm on a larger event or two that we can work on together...mucho points for all!   (I am all about the more the merrier) Anyone up for this??  Anyone up for meeting next Wednesday night somewhere?

 

 

Looking forward to working and playing with all of you!
