Many of my friends have questioned my sanity when I took a new job in downtown DC again. I mean, sure, I could have kept driving to Rockville and took advantage of the occasional 2 hour drive home to catch up on my zen meditation but the magic and allure of traveling into the city […]

Redesign. Renewed interest in my blog. The ability to amuse myself and offend my wife. All these things are happening.
