One brick at a time

You ever watch a building go up? Especially a brick building? At first it seems to take forever. One brick at a time. Depends on the size of the crew, can't do it if it's raining, can't do it if's too cold. Initially it's a snail's pace. Then, one day you look and all of a sudden it's pretty high.

The final result depends on a lot of things and a lot of bricks that were put in place by somebody other than the mason. The architect has to do his thing, the local planning board, the kiln guy making bricks, the truck driver, the lawyers, maybe even me, the programmer had some part in it.

For sure the sales guys who are talking about how great the building is going to be don't do much to put it up, but they help make a reason for the building to exist.

We're getting there, one brick at a time, at least on DM's project site. Let's hope the building ends up as high and as strong as the architect is planning and the sales guys are promising. And WB doesn't fail to get some more bricks going in some other sites.
