Many of my IT Manager Institute classes have been memorable, , , all have been special. The class dinners are especially fun and an opportunity to get to know our IT manager participants better. My wife, Dorine, was able to attend several of the dinners, even two outside the US (Aruba and Slovenia). Dorine was always a hit at a class dinner because she was so comfortable with everyone and a joy for participants to get to know. Plus, she made the dinner more special for me!

OK, to the point of this post, , ,

In my first Slovenia class, we had 18 students, , , it was a great class. Two of the students were 7-feet tall. Giants!

At the class dinner, our “paparazzi” decided to get a unique photo, , , a “bookends” photo of sorts:

I have dozens of unique photos from my Institute classes, , , one-of-a-kind captions that will be remembered forever, , , at least by me. This “bookends” photo just happened to give me a thought for this post.

Capture what’s going on around you with a photo, , , will be well worth it one day. For example, my sister-in-law works in the athletic department of a large high school. She is always sending me a photo taken with a well known college football coach or celebrity. This one with 7-foot-1-inch Shaquille O’Neal goes well with the theme of this post, , , thanks Kathy.
