            <title>At the end of the day, what really matters is: did we had fun?</title>

            <description>&lt;p&gt;This is just an &lt;a href="http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1745513/"&gt;amazing video&lt;/a&gt;, not only because &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bode_Miller"&gt;Bode Miller&lt;/a&gt; is an amazing skier and a lose cannon (and i actually like lose cannons, they make life more fun) but because skiing with just one ski at 80 mph is hard.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In this video, Bode loses one of the skies while competing in a super-G descent. What does he do? A "normal" person, would just stop. But no he keeps going with just one sky, obviously knowing he couldn't win.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Anyway, this video reminds me why i allways wanted to work in this industry. Because it's  fun. :-)  I think this video is a great metaphor for that. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Unforeseen events will happen (Murphy will make sure they will) , and when they do; even if we know we can't win, we should continue for the heck of it. To have fun, which is the greatest reward of all. IT is a very demanding career, we aren't in this for the money, the glory or the women (altough that would be nice :-)), we signed in to &lt;strong&gt;have fun&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Just watch the video, instead of reading my pseudo motivational speech crap. :-) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://agilior.pt/blogs/tiago.pascoal/aggbug/597.aspx" width="1" height="1" /&gt;</description>
