Well, no. But I'll buy you a treat if you call him that the next time we see you!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
VW, I have been in a similar situation, and here's how I handled it. One thing the tumultous world of IT consulting taught me was how to negotiate and not take it personally.
I called my contact and just asked for a status on where they were regarding hiring for the position I'd interviewed for.
If they were still interviewing, then I knew that I was going to need to look at my birds in the hand.
If they sounded interested, but internal discussions were ongoing, I'd let them know I'd received a job offer, but was really interested in working for them. Did it look like a decision was imminent?
I'm usually negotiating significantly for money or travel conditions, so I also mention that I to make a fully informed decision when I take a position.
I know that there are some Buffistas I would have put off with this, but I've found that candor and a professional attitude was generally understood and appreciated by other professionals.
And if not, I still had the other offers to consider.

Nonsense. You could distract him with Tickybox.

Yeah! I want to see Emeline in person this weekend!
Also, does anyone have a copy of today's WSJ within reach? I'm told by a taunty person that there is a front page article about someone we know I should read. But he won't tell me anything about the article and I want to know if I should actually get up off my butt and go across campus to track down a copy.

Was this the possible New York interview, or the local company?
The NYC one, only they'll actually do the second interviews here, when they come out next month to scout their proposed ride route. I'd have to go to NYC for a few days in June to staff the NYC ride. (It's a fundraiser they've been doing for two years there, but they want to start a West Coast one to draw in more people.)
