Diner Life: A day at Autzen
http://jakesdiner.blogspot.com/2015/04/a-day-at-autzen.html
Sunday, April 19, 2015. A day at Autzen. I awoke and looked at the clock that said 635. Jumping out of bed and into the shower, I still made it there by 7. I kept telling myself that this was their day and we wanted it to be special. I tried to make it a point to see every one of them and press that point. The two Deschutes County Sheriff vans were soon loaded with guys in their 90's like a bunch of excited kids heading out on a class outing. My good friend, Neil Mackey, drove the point with Lt Deron...

Diner Life: Time
http://jakesdiner.blogspot.com/2014/10/time.html
Thursday, October 23, 2014. My lunch soon came and I wolfed it down wanting to get back to my car. As I paid at the counter the cashier told me that I was lucky that I had beaten the rush. As I left, I could not help wondering what rush? It was 2 in the afternoon. Was it a pregame rush? I noticed online that three people had lost their lives on that accident on the pass. They had left behind a 6 year old who had stayed back with friends. My heart went out to this small boy and what he was about t...Subsc...

Diner Life: March 2014
http://jakesdiner.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 30, 2014. March 30, 2014. Before I left work that evening, I noticed a noise in my computer like a plane going off. I knew that a fan was going off. Instead of leaving it on, I shut off the machine before I went home. I don't know how many times that day, I sat down at my desk and grabbed my keyboard only to stare at a blank screen realizing that I would need to change over to the accounting machine to accomplish my task. We had already been working on the problem for well over a half hour ...

WoTech-Bend: February 2009
http://wotech-bend.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 27, 2009. Secrets of Six Figure Women. I was talking to a Finance Recruiter/Friend/Colleague this morning who referred me to a really good book. I thought I'd pass along to all of you. It's Barbara Stanny's "Secrets of Six-Figure Women". Check out her website - http:/ www.barbarastanny.com/secrets-of-six-figure-women.html. It's been a long week. How I hope so much this "Stupid Economy" (or is it "Economy Stupid") turns around! I do believe it's a very complicated situation. I got a note ...

Diner Life: June 2013

Thursday, June 20, 2013. June 20, 2013. When they made the movie, Jake's Truck Stop, they were such a key part of the flavor of the diner, that she actually finished off the documentary returning to their conversation at the counter. When the Bulletin wrote a story on the movie, they added a picture of that part of the movie as an example of what was to be seen in it. Another Frank entered his life. Frank Spernak was a rather new member of the Band of Brothers who was looking for something to do in h...
