Gainful employment
I've accepted a summer internship at SightSpeed, a small internet videoconferencing company that BR Ventures has invested in. It's a great company and I'm excited about working there.
This means I'll be in Berkeley, CA from May 31st till August 6th (and need housing!). I'm looking forward to the California summer.
Breean points out that the summer here (Ithaca) will be ten times better. It will - cause she'll be here.
Some free advice for those posting on community housing sites like craigslist:
- As a general rule, more info is better than less
- For sublets, indicate the dates the room is available
- Internet access is important - if it's available, say so
- For shared housing, tell me who else will be living there

Those of us who live in No. Ca. will be happy to have you close by. Perhaps there will be a few opportunities to celebrate with you while you're here. (Birthday?) And too bad Breean will be so far away!! If I had the extra cash, I'd go visit her. I'd love to see Ithaca in the summertime.

Sam:
It will be wonderful to have you nearby during the summer. We hope that we can meet with you and your folks for some good times. Maybe we can videoconference Breean into the gatherings!
Love, Nancy and Will

I'm sorry you have to work but I'm glad you'll
be here. I'm sorry Breean has to work & I'm
sorry she won't be here. I love her website.
I have to admit that I still think most corporate
management behaves as in Dilbert and that
Donald Trump is a buffoon. According to Yahoo,
( http://biz.yahoo.com/fool/040503/1083597960_1.html )
his hotels and casinos are losing money like crazy
while his competitors are cleaning up. But he's
skimming off between 1.5 and 6 million per year.
So I guess his show does present a pretty real
picture of global capitalism.
