  • RT @PhillyInquirer: Coffee shop’s expansion to Center City draws union protests http://ow.ly/4rxFv – more proof unions need to be abolished #
  • @embly917 Sorry, abolish was too strong. But reform is needed to curb intimidation & violence towards those who choose not to participate. #
  • Just got my invite to start paying to read @nytimes website. Don’t really see this as a viable revenue model. Too many free news sources. #
  • So, based on the flood of data breach notifications I apparently I do business with over 10 companies that use Epsilon. http://bit.ly/gDgjZH #
  • @ebrantner True, everything looks better on the iPad. :-) So many cool apps to choose from. Could spend all day just with the news apps. in reply to ebrantner #
  • Today would have been my father’s 75th birthday. http://www.emilgatti.com #
  • Very interesting article on what a gov’t shutdown means in the age of BlackBerries, laptops & the Internet. http://bit.ly/hJDAvq #

  • Twitter has been oddly quiet lately. I haven’t even tweeted in a week. #
  • A date on a calendar shouldn’t bother me, yet today does. My dad’s been gone for three years. Doesn’t seem possible. #

  • The rabbits in my yard seem much less afraid of people today. One refused to moved for me. Apparently they know it’s #Easter #
  • Very productive weekend of working outside & in the garage but Monday is coming way to soon. #
  • It’s the first week of April and it’s 90 degrees! Forget April showers. April heat strole seems more likely. #
  • I have a bad feeling @Comcast will take this Net Neutrality ruling as a free pass to screw their customers. Hope FCC keeps an eye on them. #
  • Today is my Dad’s birthday. He would be 74. I donated the $ I’d have spent on a gift to a few of his fav charities. http://www.emilgatti.com #
  • American Chopper is coming back! My faith in the Discovery Channel might be restored. http://bit.ly/bt3Nku #
  • Interesting take on WV coal mining communities from @kingsthings blog http://bit.ly/9BCK5R #
  • Our governor is no winner, but NJEA is the biggest enemy of education & teachers in NJ. They’re a constant disgrace. http://bit.ly/d6aMzw #
  • RT @sarahlane “Hotel pillows filled with buckwheat: GAME CHANGER.” — US hotels should follow suit. They’re all I use at home. #
  • Glad to see Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin on SNL again. Her impression is no more silly than the real Pailn, but more entertaining. #

I’ve created memorial pages on my genealogy site for other family members, but I felt like I should make something more substantial for my Dad. What started out as a page on my family tree site has slowly evolved into emilgatti.com.

    Please feel free to visit and take a look at the photos, stories, biography, etc. Then if you have anything you’d like to add about my Dad, please submit it by using the links on the site. I know that there are more stories and details to be added, but I rely on the the people who know them to share them.

    Go to www.emilgatti.com for info.

    ]]>     http://www.michaelgatti.com/blog/2008/08/10/tribute-to-my-father-emilgatticom/feed/ 0     Thank you for your kindness http://www.michaelgatti.com/blog/2008/01/30/thank-you-for-your-kindness/ http://www.michaelgatti.com/blog/2008/01/30/thank-you-for-your-kindness/#comments Thu, 31 Jan 2008 01:57:57 +0000 Michael http://www.michaelgatti.com/blog/2008/01/30/thank-you-for-your-kindness/ Words can’t even begin to tell you how difficult the past three weeks has been for my family and me. It has only been made easier by something equally indescribable. That is the overwhelming support that we’ve received from family, friends, coworkers and even folks who never even knew my father. Cards, flowers, gifts, phone calls, e-mails, dinner invitations, visits are the tangible items that we’ve received, but what we’ve really received is kindness, love and comfort.

    We’ve mailed out over 100 thank you notes, but no greeting card can truly convey how thankful we are for the outpouring of support that has been bestowed upon us.
