Look out Soph!

We heard a rumor that you're going to be left by yourself on a Yosemite mountain top for your birthday this year.

He he, just kidding, that would be too mean to abandon a girl as sweet as Sophie on her birthday!


Have a great adventure, happy birthday!

Look out for the return of an OLD Paddlefish! :)

See the note from Rich Smith:

I hope I am not jinxing myself but I have plans to return to Pittsburgh on July 13th. I have given notice at my apartment and received approval from my customer FDLE. I will still be managing the project, just from Pittsburgh. I plan on loading a rental truck on the 12th of July and driving home on the 13th.

I want to get active with the Pfish when I get home for a number of reasons. First, I have truly missed everyone and I am anxious to see my old, and soon to be new, friends. Second, I am going to plan for my knee replacement for September and want every opportunity to be in somewhat decent shape to expedite my recovery. I figure some good Pfish workouts will help me along that path.

We promise to get you in shape!

Congratulations Graduate!

One of the newest Paddlefish,
is one of CMU's newest MBA grads.

Congratulations Shing!

You worked very hard,
and you deserve to be recognized with a better photo than this digitally altered image. So I will replace it as soon as Sophie sends me one :)

But in the meantime, school's done, live it up!!

Here's to Jim Robertson,

He steers with one lens,
he keeps us equipped,
and he's the birthday boy of the day!


Have a great birthday Jim

Paddle cheers go out to....
