Heading down the street to Georgetown U...

[vtlion]

I'm not sure if anybody has noticed, but I've been a little less active on the board since the summer.  I defended my PhD at Penn State and started teaching organic chemistry at American University, which took a little bit of my time this fall 

Well, now it would appear that I am headed down the hill to Georgetown University this summer.  I will be directing organic chemistry labs there in a beautiful new teaching lab that they just built in the med-center on campus.  People, this is my DREAM JOB! 

I still have the SV and I still ride to work whenever I can (which is less and less as the weather deteriorates in the area).  I am looking into picking up a new cage in the springtime also; something completely impractical that says "i've been driving a heap of crap while suffering in grad-school for 5 years and I'm ready to finally ENJOY driving again!".

So, if I'm still a little less active on the board over the next year, its because I'm way too busy having a kickass teaching career. 

D.C. area riders should get in touch so that we can go rip up the twisties sometime.

right now my vehicular obsession changes with the day of the week 

most recently I have been lusting over the new Mazda RX-8 and the Nissan 350Z.  Previous contenders have included a late '90s Vette or a nicely restored Camaro.  I guess it will all depend on which way the wind is blowing on the day that I finally collect enough cash.

where exactly are you, Yam?
