    am I the only one?

    This is day 9 of being ER'd, and I certainly don't miss the workaday world one bit. It still feels more like a vacation than a lifestyle. I realize that this is a big change, and change takes time. But, it seems I have still been waking up in the middle of the night thinking of work issues...

    Who says public education isn't relevant?

    Woohoo!!!! Close of business, July 6 I am GONE!! It's a relief to have my cards on the table. I would have liked to say something sooner, but just didn't trust my organisation. Not that I don't have plenty of thingslined out to do after I cease employment. But I can quit 'chilling out'...

    Here's a guy that won't be ERing

    This is the first part of an article from my old home-time paper, the Juneau Empire. Can't wait to hear how the free-market zealots spin this one. How much longer is the US going to tolerate the shame of this kind of treatment of its citizenry?
