I have a friend who teaches at Hayward. Er, I mean CS East Bay.
Cool! If that's where Emmett goes I might need an introduction.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
"Honestly, if you see her with a caffeinated beverage, knock it out of her hand, onto the ground. Tell her, 'This is why you're going to die alone, with your cats, and get your face eaten off.'"
"Yes, you're right, I will."
So when you hear about a coworker getting bludgeoned with a travel mug you'll be able to say when it all began.

Because books.
It's exactly why I never understand people who don't check their mail daily. Although I will say that my latest payment was electronic, which was cool (and means I will just be checking my email ... more).

I never expected to hear Neda Ullaby talk about Wincest, that's for sure!
She is our most famous BNF, it's true.
I'd heard she was a fan, I didn't know she actually wrote fic for the show! That's too funny. (Although it was a bit much to have her assert that if you read something really good, it was probably her.)

Because books.
Her sense of humor is a little quirky. She's not at all like that, really. She is an unabashed fan of the show, though.

I grew up looking at the central building of CS-HEB. We used to call it the Flash Cube. I think they've torn it down since.
One of my most important academic experiences...a journalism 'camp' I went to two summers in a row...was held there. Taught by Scoop Nisker, if that name rings any bells.
How wonderful for Emmett moving forward in his stellar life!
