Crap. Ping Ping has a job offer in Vietnam and he's been over there the past week and a half looking into it.

Not good, not good....

Not sexcellent!

That would be a shame if he left, Xol. I hope everything works out alright.

Could you move there and be a kept man?  It could be an adventure.

I can't. I have family obligations that are keeping me in California. Looks like he's going to go through with it, too. He says it may be a few months, one year at the latest before it happens.

Poor guy. I know he misses home dearly. He wasn't happy at all to be back in the United States, even if Bush were out of office.

I'm sorry Xolik.  So is it a permanent position?


In other news, I just got back from the NERD FESTIVAL...also knows as the NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) Conference.  I got a free math t-shirt.  Nerd-o-licious!!

Pffft.  I work with computers.  What possible reason would I have for needing math?

So I'm in Malibu at work right now and HOLY SHIT the smoke is all over the place. There's a big ol'patch of burnt grass right outside of my office where the fire was. This would be totally awesome if it weren't so scary.

Shakespeare Barbie Fishing Kit

I know nothing about fishing, so seeing "Shakespeare" and "Barbie" in the same sentence made me laugh.

I upgraded my comp. I'm now using an AMD 64 6000+ Dual Core, 4GB of ram which XP only sees 3.25GB of, and an Nvidia 6800 GTS which is my new favourite video card of all times. 640mb of DDR3 goodness.

Wholly CRAP! 
The NEW "Crack"heads...
  The Collier County Sheriff's Office in Tampa, Fla., recently released a bulletin warning of a new drug threat in America — jenkem — made by fermenting human feces and urine and huffing the gas produced.
