Very exciting news. Finally, some peace of mind and security, and a decent weekly paycheck. Not as good as the dot-com days, but certainly respectable. And it’s the kind of work I enjoy. I won’t dread getting up in the morning and going to work.
Needless to say, the blogging will be sharply decreased, but I certainly won’t give it up. I’ve been going full speed ahead the past several weeks, and that can’t go on forever.
The HR department will be calling me in a few hours to discuss when I’ll start. I’m hoping to take a badly needed vacation before I report for duty. A whole new life….

Congratulations on the new job. All the best and I sincerely hope it is everything you want it to be.
That said, I will miss your posts. You have been a positive difference in the way I have come to look a politics and politicians. We may not have agreed on everything, but at least the dialogue has been educational and clarifying.

Thanks Jim, I appreciate it — and don’t worry, I’ll still be around, though not as active after I start work at the end of the month.
Now, will you finally come around and agree to vote for Kerry?
