Why This Blog Title?
I could have made the title "I'd rather be fly fishing", but that's probably been taken.
Well, I'm going to get all my personal stuff out in the open and get right down to IT (I promise) in just a few minutes. Once in a while I get to sneak away from our (my wife's) Inn in Alexandria and Restaurant in Tyrone and get to go shooting! I've been shooting skeet on and off (off only because of time) since I was about 14 years old. Don't think I'm that good, I've just done it for a long time!
It's one of the most enjoyable activities not because of shooting shotguns but the people involved. I have met some of the nicest and most influential people anyone could have the pleasure of meeting! I also enjoy sporting clays very much but if I had all the time (and money) in the world I'd shoot skeet as much as possible. I have also gotten a few folks hooked in the IT space too.... (Right Pam?). If you're still not sure what I'm talking about visit: http://www.nssa-nsca.com/ and for more history and a field layout.
Involved a bit with Centre County Youth Services Bureau, in which they put on a sporting clays shoot every year called "On-The-Field". I've been fortunate enough to secure several teams which has allowed some PSU IT participation and increased awareness of the games. Check out: http://www.ccysb.com/onthefield
OK, That about sums up the title and so on, Next entry will be nothing but IT!

I shoot myself (20 gauge Remington 2100 series!) but I find it easier to sneak away and go fly-fishing. You can jump to the shore and throw out a few flies before anyone even notices that you're late for dinner :)
I found the blog via the green data centers post, but good to find a fellow fly-fisherman too! Cheers!
