My location is changing. In another couple of weeks, I will have a Florida address, somewhere in commuting distance of St. Petersburg.

It'd be a long commute, but I hear there's a lovely dinosaur-themed property available...

That's near where my sister lives. I don't know that she is looking for real estate currently, but I'll check.

Good news. Congratulations.

Thanks. I'm happy to be able to step to a new job and not swell the ranks of the unemployed.

And it is one of the few opportunities I know of where having an organismal biology background is a plus.

Depends.  The original one has quite a bit in winter.

Anyway, congrats on the new post: I hope you have fun there!

FYI, I'm down in San Diego.  Would love to meet some CBEB (and more reputable types as well, of course) if any of y'all happen to live/visit here.

Wesley,
Congratulations, and good luck.  Way back in the '70s I lived for a time just up the road in Orlando.  I remember Tampa/St.Petersburg as being a nice area.  You'll certainly have no lack of interesting wildlife in Florida.

I wondered about the heat, humidity, and occasional downpour. I guess there was a reason.

It's true; lotsa' dicks live in Florida.

*waves back at DM*  I'm heading out for my traditional 10 day fun n'frolic in Seattle on the 20th.  Dog show slave Thursday-Sunday then nothing but blueberry and blackberry picking, Evergreen State Fair attending (poultry show and draft horse pull, BAY-bee!), Archie McPhee shopping, aquarium gawping, Chinatown restaurant diving, and whatever else I decide to cram in.  Or I might just hang out on the deck under the redwood trees and make Wolfie stew in the hot tub.

Decisions, decisions...

Oh, it is!  Many, many hours and much money is lost among the towering shelves.  I'm going next Saturday!  *hugs self*

Anyone in the DC area on next Thursday Aug 20?

The week after that I will be in the Czech Republic, visiting Brno, Olomouc, and perhaps Hyn?ice - all associated with Gregor Mendel's life and work. If you can't meet me, I'll try to bring back pictures. I'd love to bring Prof Steve Steve with me if anyone knows how to make that happen.

As I said in over at the BW, I'll be in London on September 25th and 26th, if anyone is around.

I also have a show in Dudley (near Birmingham) on September 27th.

I was at the American Museum of Natural History in New York yesterday and was surprised to run into Afarensis there.

I'm still in Seattle.  Went up the Snohomish River yesterday and caught some pink salmon.  Right arm is sore (those suckers can FIGHT!) but belly is full.

I will be here all week, ladies and gentlemen.  Back to the swamplands Sunday morning.

Yes. Certain good quality continental beers are best served chilled, and I have heard tell that [tone of great disapproval] lager and colonial imports are also chilled, but a gentleman does not drink such as they.[/tone of great disapproval]

Real beer, ale, stout, porter etc are not overly chilled, although some are served sub ambient temperature. We like to taste beer. This is because we Europeans brew good beer not manky piss water that has to be chilled to the point where one's mouth is numb enough to not notice the fact that it has already passed through at least two other people's kidneys that evening.

{Ahem}

Not that I have an opinion on the matter or anything.

Not me this year, but look out for someone very tall and looking like Dembski (sans sweater).  If you see such a person, it's probably Jeannot.
