The comic weekly man, the jolly comic weekly man. And I'm here to read the funnies to you happy boys and honeys. Yes, boys and girls, it's comic weekly time.  Right out of the pages of Puck, the comic weekly, straight into your living room. Your friend, the comic weekly man, the jolly comic weekly man. Well, little Miss Annie, how are you today? Today is the birthday of a very famous man. Fine, thank you. George Washington, the father of our country. Yes, and our first president. And believe it or not, by Ripley, which is in this paper, has an interesting fact about George Washington. Oh, what is it? George Washington never shook hands with anyone during the entire two terms he served as president to the United States. He didn't? Nope. He believed that it was beneath the dignity of the president of this country to shake hands with other people. Well, presidents aren't like that today. They shake hands, don't they? Yes, they do. Well, if presidents today shake hands with people, why do you suppose George Washington wouldn't do it? Well, I'll tell you why. Remember, George Washington was the first president of this country. And at that particular time, which was in the early days of America, almost all countries had kings. Yes. Well, kings didn't shake hands with people. No, the people always bowed to the king. That's right. So George Washington felt that even though he wasn't a king, the president of our country should have the same respect as a king. Oh, I see. Well, that's different. It wasn't because he didn't want to shake hands with them. No, it's just that because he was president, he thought he shouldn't shake hands. Well, that's different. And that's very interesting. Yes, yes, it is. Now will you please read me the funnies? Puck the Comic Weekly? Yes. Very well. I'll read that in just a moment. But before I do, let's listen to this nice man. Now here we go with Puck the Comic Weekly. And on the first page, under bringing up Father Beatle Bailey. Magic words for the music, please. Very well, my lady. Toot me or toot and tweet me. It's Beatle. Squeeze out music for Bailey the Beatle. Beatle and his soldier friend, Killer, who loves the girls, are at a roller skating rink. Killer says, Hey, there should be a good place to meet girls. Beatle says, Just skate in the wrong direction and you'll meet plenty. They skate past a very lovely blob. As she goes by, Killer looks back over his shoulder. Hey, she looks nice. And then, Beatle looks over the wall at Killer and asks, Did you hurt yourself, Killer? Second picture bottom row, Killer is back on the rink again. The lovely blonde is asked him to play Crack the Whip, a game where all the skaters line up and skate holding onto each other. Killer is the last one in line. Faster and faster they go. And then the lead man yells, Here we go! Crack it! He swings around. And the line begins to swing out farther and farther. And Killer, who's on the end, swings around twice as fast as the rest. And then the line is jerked to a stop. And Killer is snapped loose. He sails through the air, upside down past Beatle, who says, How you doing, Killer? And out the window Killer goes. Last picture, Beatle is standing outside the rink beside Killer, who is lying on the ground without his shoes on. Two men are going back into the skating rink carrying Killer's skates. Killer groans, Man, I didn't have to get so rough. Beatle says, When they thought you were trying to get away without returning your skates. Wasn't that funny? Killer didn't have to. He was so busy talking to the lovely blonde. Yes. Oh, he certainly gets into more trouble. Yes, he's trouble. Well, now let's go over the page. Oh, look, here's Prince Val and his little son, Prince Sarn. What's he doing? Well, let's read and see what little Prince Sarn is up to. Here we go with Prince Val. Hack it, break it, grey mulken and quints, music romantic for a fair, fair Prince. Today, Val is so busy talking with Elita, his wife, that he is paying no attention to little Prince Sarn. And Prince Sarn feels lonesome, so he decides to go on a great adventure. Little Arne loads his pack with food for his long journey, and then last picture, Top Row, awakens his pack of hunting dog, an old, tired, scrubby-looking creature who came from no one knows where knows where and who isn't any particular family of dog. In short, he's just plain dog. And little Prince Arn, who has imagined him to be a very brave dog, has named him Sir Gawain. Of course, since little Arn is a small gem, there's the problem of getting out of the castle. However, Arn, who knows all of the tricks of strategy becoming a great fighter, hides behind a post and throws a rock at the sentry. When the sentry leaves his post to search for the unseen assailant, little Arn, followed by his brave hunting dog, calmly walks out of the castle and across the drawbridge, first picture, second row into the wide, wide world. Late in the afternoon, last picture, second row, he stops in the depths of a huge forest to get his bearings. He estimates roughly that he and his pack of hunting dog must have journeyed a hundred leagues. And now he finds himself face to face with his first adventure, famine. Arn is hungry. He unslings his pack like an old campaigner, settles down to fortify himself with a solid meal of cookies, not forgetting to fortify his pack of hunting dog with every other bite. Then first picture, bottom row, he leans back against his pack of hunting dog and the two of them fall asleep. When they awaken, day is waning, and Arn commands that they turn homeward. Tomorrow they will explore the rest of the world. But last picture, the way is blocked, blocked by a wild animal so huge that Arn is sure it can only be the king's stag of thule. Arn crouches, holding his lance in hand. His pack of hunting dog sits back on his paunches and cocks his ears. And the enemy, in reality, a lovely little form, stares back at them with gentle curious eyes.  Isn't that funny? Little Arn pretends to be such a big, brave, bold hero. Yes, and he keeps thinking about his one dog as being a pack of hunting dogs. And the dog looks so tired. I don't think he could have looked the flea. No, little Prince Arn sees that pretty little doe in the forest. Look how he crouches, so brave to fight it. I wonder what'll happen. Well, next week I'm afraid we'll find that out. Now let's turn over the page. Oh, look, there's Peter Pan on page four. And you remember last week, Peter Pan had taught the darling children how to fly, and they were on their way to Neverland. And Captain Hook, the ferocious pirate who hates Peter Pan, saw them approaching, and when they stopped in a cloud, began shooting at them. And Peter had sent Tinker Bell on ahead, and he told her to lead the children to Neverland where they would be safe. But Tinker Bell, who was jealous of Wendy, because Peter likes Wendy so much, went on ahead so fast that she left the children far behind her. Well, I wonder what'll happen to the children left alone in the sky. Well, let's read now and find out. Here we go with Peter Pan. Pirates, crocodiles, Peter Pie Pan, whisk up music for Never Neverland. As Tinker Bell disappears in the distance, Wendy shouts, Tinker Bell, wait, we can't keep up with you. And then suddenly from below, there comes a shower of missiles, stones, clubs, rocks. Help! Help! The startles the children so that when they try to avoid being hit, they stop flying and start to fall out of the sky. Quickly, John opens his umbrella and catches Michael, and the two float down like in a parachute. Suddenly, Peter shoots down from the sky and catches Wendy just in time. And Peter and the children land safely.  Hey, Pan, we got her. Yeah, we shot her down. First picture bottom row, Peter faces the little boys. You blockheads. You might have killed her. Yeah, but, but, but we only followed your orders. Yeah, Tinker Bell said you said you shoot her down. Peter realizes what Tinker Bell has done. Tinker Bell? Tink, come here. Yes, you. Come here. Fourth picture bottom row, Peter gives Tinker Bell a good scolding for what she had tried to do to the children. Tink, you're guilty of high treason. I hereby banish you from Neverland forever. Wendy says, oh, Peter, not forever. Last picture, Peter says, well, for a week then. And Tinker Bell looking very sad flies away. Completely unaware that her week's banishment will have fateful consequences for Peter Pan and the others. Well, I'll bet you she is too. That wasn't at all nice of her to throw the boys to throw the rocks at Wendy and Michael and John. No, it wasn't. And I hope she learned her lesson and just go be nice from now on. So do I. But I wonder what's going to happen to Peter and the others during the week she's gone. Well, next week we'll find out something about that. Now look across the page. There's Roy Rogers. Oh, yes. And you remember that Roy had found that outlaw camp and rescued little Tim from the cabin where the outlaws had locked him out. Yes. And Tim had told Roy that the outlaws had tricked his Uncle Dolfo to the Tomahawk mine by sending a phony message. And Roy realizes the outlaws are planning on killing Dolfo to get him out of the way so they can get control of the mine. I wonder if Roy will get there in time. Well, let's read now and find out. Here we go with Roy Rogers, King of the Cowboys. Hi. Now here we go with Roy and Trigger. Going at breakneck speed, Dolfo is nearing the mine and a buckboard. He comes around the curb, last picture, top row and sees Fancy Farrow and his henchmen blocking the road with drawn guns. He rains in the team. Fancy says, all right, climb down, Hawkins. Should I plug him now, boss? First picture, bottom row, Farrow says, put away your gun, creaking. This is going to look accidental. All right, bullwhip, tie his hands and feet, then toss him in the back of the wagon. Oh, now I get it. We spooked the team and a wagon goes crashing over the cliff at breakneck curve. Quickly, Dolfo is tied hand and foot. Then he's tossed in the wagon and the horses are sent down the road at a gala. Get up there, get up there, right. Away goes the wagon carrying Dolfo bound hand and foot. Dead wretch or ordinary hide, Fancy Farrow. This is murder. Faster and faster, the runaway horses gallop. They sweep down the hill at breakneck speed. At that moment, Roy and Tim, who have taken a shortcut, hear the wagon and see the wagon approaching. Hey, Roy, look. Uncle Dolfo's tied up in their runaway wagon. Well, it's no time now to stop the team, Tim. I've got to try and rope him here. Give me my lariat quick. Last picture, Tim, hands Roy his lariat, which is all twisted up and pie to nuts. Here, Roy, I tied a few knots in it. I'm sorry. Great guns, son. The rope's useless. Under two. He said there's no time to stop the horses. Oh, that's him. I'm so angry at him. If his uncle gets killed, we'll all be his fault. Yes, just about. Which is a good reason why children shouldn't use things that belong to grownups as their toys. Yes. I wonder how Roy will ever save Dolfo's life. Well, we'll have to wait until next week to find out. Now let's turn over the page and see who's there. Oh, look, Flash Gordon. Yes, Flash Gordon. And I'll read that in just a moment. But first, here's that nice man again with something interesting to say. Again with Puck the Comic Weekly and on page six of the first section, Flash Gordon. Magic words for the music, please. Very well, my lady. Oh, riga, riga, doon, doon, Sasky Matash. Let's have music for heroic flash. Flash is on the planet Venus. After an air battle with King Stang, Flash gave Stang and a scaleman Kaga the slip and landed at an underground glass city hoping to find friends. Flash and Dale are greeted by Queen Trill, ruler of the underground city. Queen Trill also is an enemy of King Stang and decides to help Flash. She orders her subjects to hide Flash's jet car. Barely has Flash's ship been hidden and the caverns echo with the roar of an approaching jet craft. Flash and Dale see Kaga. As they see Kaga and Stang are lighting from the ship. Stang steps out and snaps a Trill. Flash Gordon landed here. I'm sure of it. Flash picture top row. The Queen denies that Flash is there. Stang snaps. You're hiding, Gordon. Then he raises a supersonic whistle to his lips. Trill's eyes show terror. She knows that a shrill blast of the whistle holds the power to shatter her fragile silicon nerve system. First picture bottom row. Flash who sees what's happening slips from his hiding place. And the next instant. I bet you. The burst from the spray gun demolishes the supersonic whistle and sends Stang sprawling. Taken by surprise, Kaga offers no resistance. Queen Trill moves quickly to Kaga's side, telling him that his people and hers always were friends before Stang stirred up trouble. Kaga answers, I was a fool to trust him. The tyrant used me as a tool. Let our people return to their ways of friendship. Kaga is as good as his word. After a few days of rest in the glass city, Flash, last picture, is given a crew of cave world technicians to help him in the task of constructing a spaceship that will carry him and his party back to their native Earth. Flash fixed that old King Stang just the way he deserved. Yes, and now Flash will get a ship built and soon he can start for Earth again. Oh, I hope you'll get there safely this time. You think he will? Well, next week maybe we'll find the answer to that. Now it's time for Dagwit and Blondie. Oh, and I know where to go to the second section. And here they are. Fine, and here we go with the second section of Puck the Comic Weekly. And on the first page, Dagwit and Blondie, Ramaphoo, Ramaphamsim, Zamzambi, Kanjibi Music for Dagwit and Blondie. Dagwit and Blondie are to go to a masquerade party. That's a party where everybody dresses up in unusual costumes. Blondie says to Dagwood, darling, it's time for you to start dressing for the masquerade. A cloud comes over Dagwood's face. I'm not going. Second picture, Blondie holds up a little boy's suit. Look at the cute, bustier brown costume I got for you to wear. Another cloud comes over Dagwood's face. I'm not. Suddenly there is a... It's Dagwood dashing out of the door, but there's another. And Blondie is caught and tackled him. No, no, let me go, will you?  I'm not going. But Blondie drags him in the house by one foot. Come, dear, we mustn't be late. First picture, second row, Blondie asked the children. Will you children help me get Daddy into his costume? Oh, sure, Mama. Yeah, that'll be more fun and homework. So the three of them tackled Dagwood to try to put the costume on him. Dagwood fights back. Finally, Cookie, who's sitting on one of Dagwood's legs, shouts. Hey, it's no use, Mama. And Alexander, who's trying to hold down the other leg, shouts. It pops determined not to go.   Ask them if they'll help me get Dagwood into his bustier brown costume. First picture, third row, Herb Woodley and three of his friends march over to Dagwood's house, up the steps, and into the house. Big smiles on their faces at the thought of putting Dagwood in a bustier brown suit. Herb says, this we're going to enjoy.  No, no, let me go! I'll call a police! I'll call a fire department! I'll call out the Marines! Don't forget the Blonde wig. And then, last picture, third row, it's over. The men toss Dagwood on the floor and he lies their stockings to his knees, shoes with silver buckles, short pants, a blouse and a tie with ruffles at the cuffs, a blonde wig and a bustier brown hat. And Herb laughs. He'll sure win a prize in that costume, Blonde. And the men leave. Thank you so much, gentlemen. A half hour later, Blonde is all dressed up in a beautiful gown, looking like a princess. The children look at her first picture, Barnum Roll. Alexander says, Che, you look pretty in your costume, Mama. We're all ready to go. And she comes down the stairs and then stops horrified. Before she sees Dagwood leaning against the banister, dressed in his own clothes again. Dagwood, where's your costume? And a cloud comes over Dagwood's face. I'm not going! Last picture, Blonde is in Herb Woodley's house again, interrupting him. I hate to bother you, but would you please put Dagwood's costume on him again? And the men and Herb look up and go. I'm Dagwood for not wanting to wear a bustier brown costume. Oh, but none. Yes, but she could have got him a costume like, well, a knight in armor. Why that?  Oh, that's silly. Yes, but sensible. Do you think Dagwood would have gone there? Well, I'm not sure. You never can tell what Dagwood's going to do. No, and that's... Well, now how would you like to see what's happening with Dick? Oh, I like that very much. All right then, let's go to the very last page. Oh, and here he is, Dick's adventure. Yes, and this is really some adventure, because Dick is in the early days of America when the British and the Americans were at war. And Dick and his friend, Major Vilaire, had escaped from the pirate's camp. And they were going... British had offered the pirate Jean Lafitte a lot of money to fight the Americans. Yes, but Lafitte had captured Dick and the Major again. And Lafitte said to them, if you are going to see General Jackson and tell him about me, I will go along with you and tell him myself. I wonder why he said that. Well, let's read now and find out. Here we go with Dick's adventures. Say the magic words with me. Let's have music for adventure, Dick. Let's have music for adventure, Dick. Under the skillful guidance of Lafitte and his pirates, they arrive at Andrew Jackson's encampment, just outside New Orleans. As Lafitte and Dick and the Major approach the camp, the sentry recognizes Lafitte, lowers his gun and calls the guard. In last picture, a top row. The notorious pirate Jean Lafitte is captured and marched off. The captain of the guard snaps. He'll be hung before morning. Quickly, Major Vilaire and Dick seek out General Jackson. First picture, second row, they are in the general's tent. Major Vilaire is speaking. Well, sir, Jean Lafitte has given himself up voluntarily, but not to be hung. He braves your wrath to bring information. The British are about to attack New Orleans. Lafitte has ships, men, guns. We, sir, have not enough of any. Pardon him, and he and his men will give us their blood and their treasure. But Jackson bristles. I want nothing to do with a pirate. So the hangman's noose is prepared. Last picture, second row, Dick and the Major slowly lead Jackson's headquarters and see preparations made for the execution of the pirate. And first picture, bottom row, Lafitte in his cell. The smiling pirate ceases to smile. But last picture, that night, in a bayou country below the city, red-coated British veterans heavily armed have gathered silently and are on the march. Yes, it is. Especially since Lafitte wants to help the Americans fight the British. And especially since the British wanted him to help them and he refused. Well, I'm afraid we'll have to wait until next week to find out about that. But now look below Dick's adventures. There's Rusty Riley. Oh, yes. And I'm anxious to read that because you remember Rusty ran away from the milestone farm and joined the carnival. Yes, and he's going to work in one of the side shows of the carnival for a man who is hatching up a crooked scheme against the owner of the carnival. And Rusty was in the dressing tent last week, remember? And then he saw some kind of purpleishy colored glasses and he was looking at them. Yes, and then Necro, the magician that Rusty is to work for, came into the tent and seemed very upset when he saw Rusty with the glasses in his hands. I wonder why. Well, maybe we can find out more about that right now. Here we go with Rusty Riley. Gallop and run till the road is dusty. Give us music for us horse and Rusty. Necro looks at Rusty. What do you do with my glasses, kid? Put them down and don't touch them again. Oh, sure, sure, Mr. Necro. I'm sorry, sir. I was only... Okay, skip the alibis. Now just remember, I don't like snoopers. Now pay attention and I'll explain your job. Meanwhile, Rusty's friend Stovepipe is strolling down the midway at the carnival. He sees the owner of the carnival. Denver Dooley approached the entrance of the tent of Lalgunda, the fortune teller. In real life, Lalgunda is Beagle, Necro's companion in crime. Stovepipe says to Dooley, Well, well, don't tell me, dearie, that you are about to patronize this fortune-telling charlatan. I am, Drock. And what's more, I am told that this one's no fake. First picture, bottom row, Denver Dooley is sitting in the tent. The lights are soft and low. The crook Beagle with a turban and fortune teller's costume on sits before a crystal ball. He speaks. Lalgunda, see plenty much good fortune for you. Stars and planets say now is best time for take chance. No can lose. No kidding. After the last show that night, Rusty joined Stovepipe at the tent where he works. Well, I'm all through for tonight, Mr. Stovepipe. You ready to go home? Yes, yes, already, my lad. How is your initial performance, sir?  Step back in the shadow. They step back in the shadow. They see Necro, the magician, coming down the midway from one direction. He meets Dooley. They hear Dooley say, Well, hi there, Necro. On your way home? Well, possibly. But I was hoping I might find someone who was in the mood for a modest game of poker. Dooley thinks to himself, Ogre. And that fortune teller said, This is the time to take a chance. He said, I can't lose. Last picture they hear Dooley call. Oh, hey, Necro, wait. I'd like to get into that game. Necro answers. Well, okay, Dooley, if you want to. He was going to try to get Dooley to join with him. That's right. And he said something about with my tricks, that he'd be able to beat Dooley. Oh, and now Dooley is going to play cards with him. And I'll just bet you Necro will cheat and Dooley might lose all his money. That's Necro's plan. And next week we'll find out more about this. But now that's all the time I have. But before I go, here's that nice fellow with some more interesting information. Little honey and all your boys and girls, I've got to go now. All right, Mr. Comic Weekly, man. Okay, that's a date.  Mr. Comic Weekly. For I'm the Comic Weekly man. The Jolly Comic Weekly man. I'll be back to read the funnies to you happy boys and honeys. Don't forget, boys and girls, see you all next week. Your friend the Comic Weekly man. The Jolly Comic Weekly man.


Okay, we're back live inside theCUBE. This is SiliconANGLE.tv's exclusive coverage of EMC World 2012. We're here on the ground with the independent coverage. EMC.tv has their coverage. Obviously that's pretty biased, that's EMC's TV, but we're SiliconANGLE Wikibon. We are unfiltered, unbiased, we're independent. I'm John Furrier, the founder of SiliconANGLE.com in Palo Alto, California. I'm joined with my co-host. I'm Dave Vellante at wikibon.org and we're here with Scott Davis, who's a CTO at VMware in the end user computing group. Scott, welcome to theCUBE. Hey, glad to be here. And John, you and I have talked a lot about the whole virtual desktop and that terminology and I go back a couple of VM worlds ago and we were trying to stamp desktop out of the terminology, trying to get the industry to think more mobile and I think we had an impact. I think we changed the marketplace again, but we've always said, Dave, that VDI was kind of like a half-pregnant solution. Didn't know really what it wanted to be, but ultimately we were always erring on the side of the edge of the network, really needs to be secure. It needs to be dynamic and robust and take advantage of the applications that are in the cloud and obviously with big data behind it. So to me, I think that's still the case. In fact, yesterday in San Francisco, I actually ran into a old friend, Simon Crosby, ex-Cube alumni, who's doing Bromium, which is a edge-based security, kind of virtualization edge. So to me, I'm really big on this whole using virtualization in tandem at the edge to create a better user experience. So again, that's great messaging, how that renders into an actual product. Love to hear what the updates are. So we're building a collection of technologies. Things are far beyond just desktop virtualization now. So let me start by saying that our vision for the future is to be the post-PC error management platform. Now that means instead of managing in-user devices, you want to be managing users, their applications and their data and delivering them to end points of all types. We're in this post-PC era, people are using multiple devices throughout the day and basically they just want their stuff and their devices except IT still has to deliver these capabilities with business SLAs, compliance, security and high availability. So you will see all of our technologies fitting into that. So now we're building a suite of technologies, a set of technologies, if you will, let me talk about three kinds of prongs of innovation. So one of them is about Windows.  Over time, I believe Windows is going to turn into a runtime environment for legacy Windows applications. We'll think about Windows not so much as a desktop, we'll think about it like we think about Flash today. It's a container or runtime for applications. And yesterday, we announced a acquisition that's very strategic for us. We purchased a company called Winova. So what Winova does is they have two core technologies. They do image layering, meaning they can break a physical or virtual system up into a collection of independently managed layers and replicate them in the data center. Secondly, it has a WAN delivery model with sophisticated storage and network dedupe that delivers this image that you can manage, recompose, et cetera, to physical endpoints or to VMs with view or to endpoints running fusion. So for example, you can run a managed Windows image on a Mac or even to a lockdown Linux instance. So this is going to dramatically broaden the benefits that you can get for desktop virtualization to far more markets. So it's centralized image management but coupled with local execution where VDI was always about centralized image management with remote execution, meaning that, and delivering images to non-Windows platforms with remote graphics like tablets and thin clients, that's certainly the purview of view. But when you put these two technologies together, we cover a much broader swath of the market. So explain that again to me. So the edge is non-remote access on the new one. What Winova enables you to do is it splits an image up and then replicates it to an endpoint. So we're actually executing on the edge of the network. We're going to execute centrally managed Windows images on either physical PCs with native experience or in VMs on thick client endpoints. That lets you handle cases where your network's not good enough for remote access or you need to take it with you, disconnected access on laptops. So it brings the benefits that we've had for a while with view and delivers them to many more use cases. So increase performance and blow some of the bottlenecks around the execution of it. That's what you're saying, right? Excuse me? So you're saying that the new upgrade with the new product is that it removes some of the bottlenecks around the execution at the network level, right? Well, you're running on the endpoints. You're getting a native experience on the endpoint instead of running in the data center and you have centralized image management for both. So you get a lot of the operational benefits that are commonly associated with view and virtual desktops except you can now apply them to use cases where that wasn't appropriate before. So these two are highly complementary. So the big conversations that are more high level stay with the strategy for a minute because this is good backdrop data. What is the data set in the application because we're seeing some, you can't just in virtual machines spin down data. You got data moving around as well. So what's the data model in this? So we have a couple of different technologies around this. So the view and Windows as a service, Windows as a runtime, that's one of three prongs of our end user computing strategy. Let me talk about the other two prongs to answer your question. I'm going to get to data in a moment. Okay, so the middle prong is about delivering apps of all form as a service. This is our horizon platform and there's a collection of technologies here. This is about provisioning users and their applications and delivering it from a common portal with enterprise grade, single sign-on login protection of your accounts, identity federation as a service and centralized policy and delivery of apps of all forms. Okay, so, and we made a major announcement about horizon a few weeks ago at the beginning of the month where we announced for the first time horizon app manager is going to be available on-prem. Okay, there's another horizon solution. Horizon is becoming a brand name that we're using for this collection of technologies where we deliver mobile management for smartphones in particular initially for Android devices. We have a offering called Horizon Mobile Manager that essentially is virtualization for Android. You can run two virtual phones on a physical phone. One of the phones is for personal use. You do whatever you want in it. The other phone is a managed work phone and IT can remote wipe and control what applications you can run in the work phone. This is very different than other vendors doing traditional MDM or mobile device management. I like to say that they claim that they're doing bring your own device. Okay, but they're not really doing bring your own device. They're doing outsource the cost of the device to the employee, but still have IT managing it. We're really embracing bring your own device. This is really letting people- Just create an image using virtualization on your phones, like two phones. Yeah. The bat phone for the home front and then the work phone. Exactly. We had a CIO on yesterday and he said that his organization, within his organization mobile is opt out. Yeah. And that's rare in terms of the CIO organizations that I talked to. What are you seeing there? Well, what do you mean by opt out? Basically, if you don't want mobile to be part of your IT set of services, you have to opt out of mobile. They're including that as a fundamental part of the IT services portfolio. Okay, I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that or what he means by that. So you get a new employee. Yeah. Okay, and they've got a whole set of services and sets of applications. They get a desktop. They get a mobile device that is included as part of their whole package. Yeah. And if you don't want that, you have to opt out of it. Okay. As opposed to what you said before, which is bring outsource the cost of the mobile to the employees. Well, more and more what we see is employees want to bring the latest and greatest device they like into work and use it in work. So what we think CIOs need and what we are doing with our Horizon Mobile Management Platform is, we need to give IT the facilities to really manage the business applications on the smartphone with the right security and isolation and let employees learn what they want. I mean, let's face it, new mobile devices come out all the time. People want to run what they want to run. They don't want to be dictated by IT what they need to run. And basically bring your own device to quote my esteemed colleague, Vittorio Vierango, is about being able to utilize the device that makes you look youngest. He's been on the IQ world. He was good on the Q and P M world. So, now there's one more aspect to our portfolio here, which is Project Octopus. And we talked about that in our launch as well. In Project Octopus is enterprise file sync with rich sharing. And the key difference is, is that your data is stored on-prem safely and securely instead of out in the cloud. I mean, everybody knows about consumer services like Dropbox, people use it, because it's an easier way to work. It's an easier way to collaborate and share data. The days of emailing files around are getting less and less. So we've built this platform called Octopus. It's in beta right now, which is what we announced a few weeks ago at our major launch. So it's an active beta with multiple customers. And what it gives you is essentially my documents in the cloud with rich, sophisticated sharing, access control lists on files and folders, except the data is stored safely and securely behind the firewall in the enterprise. So how does that relate to synchplicity, the announcement EMC made? Do you see that? I did see the announcement. And I'm not quite sure what EMC is planning to do with that synchronicity. I mean, this is a rich area for there's a lot of solutions out there. When I present to customers all the time, they're dying for the value prop that we have with Octopus. The ability to deliver the end user experience like you get with web-based file services, but security and compliance, rich access control lists and sharing. And most importantly, the data's behind the firewall. So you're not risking the assets going out of the company. And we have to get going because we're getting the hook here. So I know that we want to do more follow-up with you on this. I think Dave and I want to track this section of the stack. It's been something that we want to do more on, especially with your announcement of the Cloud Foundry relation to the startup here. Dave, what was it in Boston, Kinvi? Convey. Convey. So you guys have a lot of good technology coming together and we want to do more with it. So sorry to cut you off, but we have to get going for our next guest. Coming in, we'll be right back with our next guest from Brocade, this message.


He's over 200, he's over 1500, and he is the baddest man in NRG stadium today. Look at him, buddy. Just punched our ticket to go to the playoffs, man, but we got to go back to work, fill up the little things, man. We'll see how to pump for him. Welcome to the Titans Blitz presented by Farm Bureau Health Plans. You didn't expect to see us, but we're back. I'm Lance. This is Eddie Jordan. Eddie Chan is alive and well. It always will be. This is playoff edition. We made it, my man. We made it. Happy New Year, man. Happy New Year. We're the present, right? Another day of Titans football? What a game. What a game. What a game. Awesome. Moment of silence for Eddie's rushing record at Ohio State.  I'm glad it went down in that fashion. I wish we got to get the dub with it. But J.K. Dobbs was with a phenomenal young athlete, hopefully, you know, he'll be on the next level somewhere. He declared. So he's coming out. So we'll see. But yeah, you had to bring that up. I did. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Ouch. All right. Let's kick off the show and do what we do. And right now, let's do four downs with Eddie and talk about this game, what a game it was.  First down, I mean, crown the man, right? Okay, Henry gets his crown. Yeah. He owns the title for 2019, the rushing title. We all loved it, but nobody loved it more than his teammates. Check this out. Hey, it's 53 for 1500. He needs 48 for the title. Oh, we gotta get that. For the rushing title. All right. Hold him. Go. Get him, baby. This is a special moment for him and it's a special moment for this football team. What a great job they did to get to this point this year through a lot of trials and tribulations. So there you go, Derek Henry, the rushing leader of 2019. Teams loving it. Big night. Look at that, man, with the crown on him, 211 yards on 32 carries. Whoo. He did it in grand fashion. Yeah. And the final run to go over that 53-yarder, like a walk-off home run. He was. And I mean, listen, the guy's been having a fantastic year going back to 2018. Just been phenomenal. The best back in the league, in my opinion, talent-wise is certainly now with the rushing title is only going to get better for him. And to win a rushing title, what that means for any running back, that is huge. That's something in my nine-year career I've never accomplished. I've been third, second, fourth. Hard to believe, but yeah. But it's tough to do. Yeah. And to do that in the last game of the year, when everything was on the line, you had the punch of ticket to get in the NFL, I mean, to get in the playoffs, certainly to win the Russian record and all of that, it's a huge deal. And we know that we lean on King Henry to get the job done for the Titans, for this office to go. So kudos to him, man. That is a great, great accomplishment. Absolutely. Also too, hey, if we're going to hand out some crowns, crown Tannehill too, because what a season Ryan Tannehill has coming in off the bench. He finished 117.5, highest QBR rating in the league, highest QBR rating in the league. That guy right there, he was number one in first down completions, 44.1%. Number one in yards per completion, 9.6. The Tennessee Titans are a vertical threat pushing the ball down the field. What? Yeah. And Ryan Tannehill is exactly what Vrabel said they were looking for when they made the change. We're just looking for a spark and he provided. Listen, again, you know, when you have a second chance at life in your career, he took full, has taken full advantage of it. It seems like the man, every time he steps on the field, it's a chance to celebrate, a chance to appreciate where he is and not take it for granted. Yeah. He had it in Miami, but now it's like a new life, new team, new situation. And you can see he's playing with a sense of joy and guys are feeding off of that. So every time he's going out there, it's for purpose, every play, every chance. It's awesome to see that. Absolutely. One guy he's feeding it to, third down right here, this guy should get the rookie crown. That's right. AJ Brown has had a phenomenal season. Yeah. He's worth a round of applause. Absolutely. The man's earned it. Uh, you know, another big night, four for 124, and that catch right there that set up this Derek Henry touchdown. I mean, that's unbelievable stuff right there. Likely. I mean, this has to be like a 6% chance of him catching a ball like that. Yeah.  He continues to impress us with raw talent, wait until he really gets skilled at his craft in terms of setting up his routes, seeing coverage, manipulating a defense, getting faster, stronger in the offseason, really having hands and the chemistry with the quarterback. With Tannehill. With Tannehill. I mean, this kid, the sky's the limit, you know. I want to say he's going to be an all pro, future all pro here in the next few years for the Titans. The whole team, AJ Brown included, just getting hot at the right time, coming together, finding their chemistry at the right time, moving on to fourth down. We'll talk about the other gems that were in this game. The Marcus's throw to AJ Brown was something to see that put him over a thousand yards. That was nice to see. Gerald Casey was a game record on the field. These guys were getting after it, a bired ball hawk and getting that interception. You know, I mean, look, of course, yeah, we put 35 points on them. They say, yeah, well, they didn't play their starters and they didn't have any play for it. Well, if that's the case, then this is the kind of game you should put up on. Exactly. That's what we were supposed to do. And all the pressure was on the Titans coming into this game. They could have easily laid an egg, came out there flat, just saying, man, we don't know what we're doing. We don't know how to play football.  They were locked and loaded. They were focused and they went in there with the intention to get a victory. They did just that. Yeah. And it was nice to see, too, very comforting to watch a 15-year, a 15-play drive from the Texans unfold at first. You're like, wait, what's happening? Yeah. But full control. The Titans were still in full control. Yeah. So it was good to see. It was a good game. We got lots more to talk about. But, you know, 15 minutes can save you 15% or more on your car insurance. So with that, we go to break with our Geico Fast 15 to stick around. We've got more Titans Blitz on the other side. Bring it right back. Back toward the middle ball. Caught. Looking. He has all day. He throws deep downfield. The pass is caught. AJ caught it at the one. And the pass is intercepted on a deflection. Fired. Fired makes a great pick. The Titans Blitz presented by Farm Reel Health Plans now half-time on the show. So, Eddie, I got a question for you.  Yes, sir. Saturday, kind of like a heavyweight fight. Speaking of heavyweight fights, we asked this question to our Titans players, which we'll get to in a minute. But I'm going to ask you, Muhammad Ali or Mike Tyson. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. This might cause fights in some people's houses. Greatest of all time? Ooh. I got to go with... I don't know. Muhammad, the greatest of all time. Right. I got to go with Mike Tyson. Iron Mike. Iron Mike. Black shoes, black... No socks. Shorts. It's the towel over the neck. Okay. It's going... Man, he was a bull. Yeah. He said to one guy that he wanted to take his... his... the bridge of his nose and put it through his brain. I... That's how lethal... And he could do it. I believe he was being sincere. Yes. He tried to do it many times. People paid to watch that, actually. Here's what our Titans had to say about that very question. And this week's This or That, sponsored by Snickers. Mike Tyson. I'm going with Iron Mike. I just... I don't know. I just like Mike Tyson. Uh, Muhammad Ali. Muhammad Ali. Muhammad Ali. Muhammad Ali. Ali. Ooh, Mike Tyson. I got to pick one. Can I pick both? I mean... Well, I like both. I mean, Muhammad Ali is more... But Ness and Mike Tyson are... Or it's more of a beast-like knockout king. But I like them both. But I say Muhammad Ali just because they're respected. All the things he's done. Muhammad, I mean, Mike was a beast for Muhammad. Who do you go with? All right, you know... Who do you like? I got to lean. With his story, with all that happened, Ali. But in the ring... It's talking in the ring now. Just in the ring. I guess I leaned a Tyson, because I... Right. Just fearful. Yeah. This game coming up kind of reminds me of Ali Tyson in a little bit.  Yeah. They got that Ali thing happening. But I think we're very dangerous, right? Are we? Me? Me? With a knockout punch? Waiting to happen? Could we be the Buster Douglas in this situation? Could we? Oh, we could be. I think they fear that. Yeah, I think so, too. But we'll see. This feels like a heavyweight fight, though. It does. I'm excited about it. All right, we're going to talk about it on the other side. By the way, Ali or Tyson? Yell it out. Ali! It's mixed here. It's mixed here. Hey, we're going to talk about this game coming up on the other side. Stick around. We've got more Titans Blitz on the way. We've got to get this back to the Titans Blitz presented by the Farm Bureau Health Plans. I'm Lance. He's Eddie. It is now the two-minute warning here on the show. We've got to talk about this game coming up, this oh-so-big wild card game up in Foxboro. Yes, sir. Playoffs, baby. Playoffs? You're talking about playoffs? All right, first key to victory against this team. I think we have to be aggressive because the Pats are vulnerable, right? They appear to be extremely vulnerable. They appear, offensively speaking. I mean, listen, you can throw that game right there. You're watching the highlight, the Dolphins out the way. You're not going to see that version of the Patriots. I think the biggest thing for the Titans outside of the obvious and being physical and temple and all of that is the mental game. It's going into Foxboro. Okay. Because it's tough to beat them in Foxboro. There's a lot to overcome with the mystique, with the Super Bowls, with Belichick and Brady. You know, Brady comes running out full speed and does the fist pump and the fans go crazy and there's the fireworks and all of that. You can get cards and all of that. But I think the Titans, based off of Mike Ray, will be in from the culture. They played them before. They know they can be in them before. So just going up there is a different animal altogether, especially in the playoffs. So never mind the fact that their offense is anemic this season. Don't worry about that. Don't think about it. That's not even part of it. That's where they can allow you to sleep.  Then you see Edelman just go berserk and then everything just comes together for them at the right time. So you have to be very cautious from a mental perspective, not to get distracted by that. Go on there with the game plan. You have everything you need. You've got a great run, a great running offense, outstanding defense, opportunity defense, and special teams. You take those three things on the road. You stay the course and you don't get distracted one way or the other. If things go your way early or not, if they go bad on one way or not, you just got to stay the course and stay locked in on the finish line. So second key here, pick your poison, Henry or Brown. But maybe that's just it. If they're picking their poison, Henry or Brown, maybe that's where Tajé has an epic game. There you go. The other pieces and parts of the puzzle is Johnny Smith. He's going to be a key factor for me in this game, the wild card, the matchup issue in the middle of the field for Tannehill to get downfield. It's going to be pass protection up front. They're going to try to blitz Tannehill all day long. They're going to try to pressure him. That's where he struggles. There's going to be key for them to get the ball out early, get Johnny involved, get him off set, get him off balance. Because the key, they're going to try to lock Derek down. He had 200 yards. He's a leading rusher. Everything runs through him. So they're going to try to stop the run, limit Brown on the outsides. He's going to take for a guy like Johnny Smith and the other receivers to get involved to take pressure off of those two. And I feel like that's going to be key throughout the playoffs. And that's what New England has done for years. It's get everybody involved. So that's key here. Well, third key control, you've mentioned this already, but control that tempo offensively and be physical on defense. But Brady's got to stay on the bench. Brady's got to be on the ground. He's not on the bench. He's got to be on the ground. Yeah. And hopefully I'm praying that they're like, if he gets hit too hard, a flag won't come out. Oh, it's, you know, roughing the passer, but that's another story. But, you know, they've got to make him feel uncomfortable. They can't allow him to get time to find his receivers. They've got to get them off his mark. When they get them off of his mark, they've got to take him down and take him down hard and often. So that's going to be the key. And watch out for the screen game. Because if you try to pressure Brady, they'll welcome that. They'll hit a dump screen to the tight end. They'll hit a quick screen to the receiver. Or to the running back. Their screen game is very, very good. So you've got to be careful of that. And I'll also say the Titans need to be ready to adapt to the tempo of the Patriots because I remember last playoff game in New England after we beat the Chiefs, we came out and scored. But then what did they do? They went to a hurry-up offense and they moved the ball. And we're banged up on the back end of the secondary. Right. It's going to be key. So it's going to match up. We are. But Dory Jackson practiced in full today. So that was good to see. Dory. Yeah. We need every minute of defense we can get. It's going to be a tough game. It is. But it's the playoffs. It's the playoffs. It's got to be. It's going to be tough. It's going to be tough. Why not go up to the defending champions and win the victory in Wild Car Weekend. Great. Ready to start there, right? Get ready to start. $2,000. Slay it, John. Manly. You know what? I want to ask you more about that on the other side. Hey, guys, stick around. We got more Titans Blitz on the other side. This is playoff of Mr. Manly. Very looking. I like that. Welcome back to Titans Blitz presented by Farm Bureau Health Plans. It is now over time here on the show. And time for our winnings. Hot take of the week. We've talked about this a little bit, Eddie, already. We've got a big game coming up, obviously. This wild car game in New England. But for the rookies and for the vets who have never had a playoff game, Brian Tannehill, the pressure going into this game, how do they take this as just another game? First of all, it's not just another game. The nation's watching. The nation's watching. It's the playoff. This is what you compete for all year long, just to punch your ticket to get a seat at the table to fight for a championship. So how do you mentally get ready for that? Mentally, you take it on. You embrace it.  It's Christmas morning. It's Christmas day. It's in football terms. It really is. Because it's a gift. So now you have to go out there. You have to fight for it. So the good thing is that this coaching staff, they're used to being in the playoffs. DMP's Mike Vrable, he's from New England. He understands the culture. He knows how to prepare for these types of games. So for the rookies, just embrace the moment. Keep your playbook with you at all times. Don't leave it in the hotel room. Don't take it in the locker room in New England. That's what you don't want to do. So that's the first thing. Well, New England would never do anything shady. Of course not. They don't. They would not. No deflate game, no filming of the sidelines, calls, none of that. But it's something that you should definitely embrace and enjoy the moment of playing in a playoff game because it is really, really a privilege to play. Now see, it's interesting to hear you say that. I don't like hearing you say that because you just hear so many coaches talk about, well, it's got to be business as usual and they just need to see this game. But how can you not?  You know what it's like. So you say, embrace it, embrace it, own it. Absolutely, bring it on. Let it feed you. Let that energy because it's an exciting time. I mean, when you just think it's another game, well, there is no next week. You have to approach it with a sense of urgency. You have to fight for it. And my first playoff game in this stadium against the Buffalo Bills was just not another game. And when the ball went through the uprights for the Buffalo Bills and 16 seconds left, I'm sitting on the sidelines wondering, damn, this was the worst loss I've ever felt in my career. You were already feeling that with the 16 seconds? Yes. I was 50 yards behind you and I knew we were going to win. Did you really? I just knew it. You just felt it. I was with my dad. Yes, I felt it. But you understand what I'm saying though, right? But that's the energy. That's the excitement, the love and the whole energy of being in the playoff. So Eddie says embrace it. You hear that? Embrace it. I know we're going to embrace it. I know who's going to embrace it. The Titans fans are going to embrace it. There's a watch party happening here. If you're here in Nashville, you've got to be at this place. Wild Horse Saloon happening for the game. There's going to be giveaways, T-Rex there. Cheerleaders there. Blue Crew, Drumline will be there. I'll be there. I think I'm serving drinks. I don't know. It's going to be a good time though. It's going to be a good time.   Guys, we made the playoffs. Yeah. That is what I'm talking about. We've got to keep this energy going. I want to do this again and talk about Baltimore. We will. That's another animal. That is another animal. We had to take on. I want to talk about that. I can't believe it. We did it. What a season it has been. Yes. God, I love this team. We've got to tighten up, y'all. Yeah.
