“Jay Leno, America’s leading late-night comedian as host of NBC’s “The Tonight Show,” will retire at the end of his current five-year contract in 2009 and be replaced by Conan O’Brien, the network said on Monday. ” [story]
Going to an interview (finally!) in a couple of minutes. Wish me luck. 
Yeah, I know… not a lot of updates the last couple o’ weeks. Sorry; life has been complicated, in some respects, since the move.
Anyway, Ames and I are thinking of heading out to the Dragon Boat Championships and Festival at Lake Merced some time this weekend. (It’s free.)
Anybody from SF/SJ interested in joining us if/when we go?
These guys want everyone to vote this November.
They’re putting up two $100,000 prizes to call attention to their quest.
I’ve signed up. Their process looks to be devoid of third-party spam and it appears to be easy to opt out of their email messages.
If you haven’t signed up, please consider doing so with this link: http://kbz1ab5.VOTEorNOT.org.
If you register through that link and win the $100K, I win a matching $100K prize.
I like matching $100K prizes.
Made the trip just fine; took the 12ish hours I expected it to (hard to haul ass when you’re already hauling an assload of boxes of books and a car).
And I had been planning to send out little “here’s my new information” postcard things, but since I suspect I’m Noelle’s He Who Shall Remain Nameless, I’ll be sending some emails shortly. 
More later. Right now I have an infinite number of boxes of crap crammed into my room. The cats think it’s great fun (all sorts of hidey-holes, dontchaknow); I’m eyeballing it and wondering how in the hell I’m gonna make the bed fit.
A few last-minute things to load (like the computer I’m typing this on) and I’m bound for SF.
I might not have Internet access for a few days, but I’ll try to post something ASAP.
