Happy Birthday FT Lurker!!

Just finished up the morning dives here. I've gotten pretty close to nitrogen overload; these dives are WAY longer than the ones I'm used to.

Thanks, sbm12!

Call me any time. I have pretty wide open schedule.

As of next month, I set my own office hours - at least two hours per day Monday through Thursday. Don't have to show up at all on Friday through Sunday. ^

Down to tenure-track faculty from a dean (literally three levels).

As of tomorrow (I'm on Central Time, so it's still Tuesday for another hour+), I'm 19 years from official retirement. I don't want to move any more. :D

I can retire today but I don't want to. My job is fun and where else could I get the same satisfaction and the benefits.

Now, if I could just talk a few people into retirement, I would be totally happy. ;) :D

I enjoyed this movie. In fact it's the only movie that I like Brad Pitt in.

Academics (e.g. approve what the other deans do); however, my state has a wonky naming convention for administration (Vice Presidents, Deans, Executive Directors).

My SPG account reflects (as of today) that I'm supposed to be getting 2,000 miles on (SkyTeam partner) as a result of the free weekend promotion ^

So you were the Dean of Deans? (lol.. I'm easily confused. :D )

I've been to nyc a ton before but as my sister has a few rugrats, we end up ordering in. She lives in BH near the clark st 2/3 stop so getting into Manhattan is not an issue.

Anyone? Bueller?

I'd offer to come meet you in the city for a beer but I'm booked with gigs all weekend. If you're looking for something to do Friday night and don't mind a ride into Jersey, the place we're playing is walking distance from the Woodbridge NJ Transit system :) [/shameless self promotion]

Unless 3's a crowd, I'd love to join you guys if I'm in town.
