Back from NY for turkey, sick as a dog. Taking the day off to recoup.

A good time was had by all. Saw the whole fam. Cousin Joey was as incoherent as ever.

Attended my 10th high school reunion and had a blast. The girls looked good, the guys looked paunchy. Made some key contacts for the pending NYC move in 24 months. Note: do never peak in high school. Note 2: It’s “California” not “Cali”.

Word is the SOME ACTION is wrapping up their first full-length. SA bassman and all-around party poodle Johnny G continues to rock the LES fringe with squid guts and camel lights. More to come.

Tibsy was missed, but was on everyone’s minds as he prepares to move into a leaky shack in the woods with an outhouse. Tibsy’s new Dell is not thrilled about this turn of events.

Next time you’re in Huntington, have a slice at Little Vincents. Best slice in the Township?

We wanted to buy, but apparently 2 adults with fulltime jobs in the 25% income bracket can’t afford to buy houses anymore.

Come by and say hi, wouldja?

Going down fast

News Story by Julia King

NOVEMBER 08, 2004 (COMPUTERWORLD) – Skeptical, stressed, scared, sucked dry. This is how IT professionals feel about work these days.

Other telling words that surfaced repeatedly during more than 30 interviews and in 200 written survey responses include fear, loathing, disgust and dread.

To be blunt, IT worker morale sucks, and it’s getting bleaker by the day.
