Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

I think I broke the CV axle in my van. I just had it towed to the shop. I don't even want to think about how much this will cost.

Heh - the day I decide to finally abandon LJ for good (I've posted maybe three comments in the past year, and haven't updated my own journal in...forever?), I get two emails notifying me that I am now the owner of two communities that haven't been active in...also forever. I guess I'm not the only one trying to streamline social networks today.

erika, I'm not sure how many are in my union, the WSEU, but we are all administrative personnel working for the university. The university system across the state employees something like 25,000 classified workers and most of us are union employees. So, think folks a lot like your mother.

Keller is quoted extensively in that article, since he was Achatz's mentor (he was sous chef at the French Laundry when he was 25). Achatz even named one of his sons Keller.
