Chris,

I've been through the list of posts responding to your question and saw 
that you did find one that worked.

What I didn't see was a pure wildcard solution, so here's my 
contribution to answering the question of how many sysadmins does it 
take....

ls .[!.]*

Cheers,

Bob

PS.  I'm not currently a sysadmin, though I do manage my own Linux 
systems ;)
