Hey Man,
The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo has begun, The world championship BBQ Cookoff is done, the Daytona 500 was run, Toby Keith stirred people up at his show and I have electrical equipment to sell.
Let us begin electrically.
In ABB news Automation & Power World is fast approaching, are you going?
The new 2013 LV Product selector is now available to download http://www.abb.us/lowvoltage .
Vintage catalogs are now longer offered on the public web site.
In Siemens news we now have our 2013 prices for the new V20 VFD. It is compact and easy to use.
Yes that also means low cost.
In EATON news, last week EATON had an open house in Houston with some good seminars.
I intend to follow up with a futhur post on some of their newer power quality offerings.
The Daytona 500 was last weekend. Jimmy Johnson once again proved to be awesome. In NASCAR terms he is more like Ned Jarret than Dale Sr. But to me he seems almost like a stock car racing Rick Mears. Both had off road racing roots in Southern CA. All in all the new Gen 6 car looks like an improvement for the fans and the drivers.
Here in Houston it is RODEO time. What's the big deal you ask? Rodeo Houston has more shows than the NFL Texans at home and fills Reliant Stadium. https://www.rodeohouston.com/
You have to go and see it, feel it, hear it, and yes smell the stock show part of it.
It takes over 27,000 volunteers to put it on.
Rodeo Houston kicks off with the World Championship BBQ Cookoff.
My team is the Cougar Cookers, we are a University of Houston alumni group.
While we have not won overall, we have placed for our chicken in the past and we are competing with over 300 teams. Yes over 300 teams and over 263,000 people came to the event this year.
Houston IS the BBQ capital of the world and don't you forget it.
Toby Keith opened Rodeo shows Monday night with what sound like a rowdy show.
What better way to start a Rodeo?
cheers,
the ElectricAlan
