I'm betting the Berkeley P.D. will be polishing up their nightsticks tonight. They've been waiting for this for a long time...

Only The Strong
I just flew back from my two-day house-hunting adventure New Jersey*. Results were . . . mixed. I may need to purchase one of these to psyche myself up.

East Coast, Interrupted
Oh, BLOG, I've been so neglectful. I'm sorry, but I've been busy! There were doin's a'transpirin'.
I'm married now, and thus a million years older. And I filed my thesis and got my Ph.D., so my AIM screen name is no longer wrapped in deceit. Furthermore, I have a job. I suppose I should come to grips with the fact that my future co-workers may have already found this blog and are mocking me accordingly. But I am, at this very moment, sitting in a hotel room in New Jersey looking for a place to live. So upon my return to the Northeast everyone can look forward to Jeff becoming a full-bore Jersey Apologist. "It's not as bad as you think" will be my new battle cry. I mention these items because one of my proposed summer projects was to update the blog, and this, here, is my first step towards that end. I also bought a bike! But that was for my other summer project.
And on the subject of apartment hunting, let me take a moment to plug walkscore.com. It's far from perfect, but it is a useful tool for the out-of-towner. Central New Jersey, thou art a different place:
Eat your heart out, Boston.
