I moved out several years ago, though I thought I would come back.  The neighborhood was pleasant, and the community had a lot going for it. Yet I needed to be elsewhere- for work, for personal reasons... for life.  But I visited ( Read more... )

It is a growth market, to be sure.

I am looking for a replacement, who can fill my shoes. Great pay, no benefits, and a room with no view. Ask me how.

In other news, I will be returning to the DC area in mid-to-late June, and staying for the foreseeable future. I got a new gig and everything.

At no time have I been concerned about lion attacks while in an American airport because I am confident that the technology and mechanisms employed ( Read more... )

I am making more money now than I ever have in my life, and it is very likely that I will never do so again. So, gentle reader, what should I do with my ill-gotten loot?

But minutes ago, I realized that there are other who share my tastes. My proclivities need not be a matter of shame anymore. Oh Internet, you bring us together across the world.

Apparently, the kind of music I like is called
