NEMES Model Engi­neer­ing Show, Feb. 2007

Oops. Looks like I got a hair in this scan, which I can’t fix from here in Los Ange­les. But you get the idea.

I was indeed run­ning out of steam before I left Boston. Work has been pretty tir­ing, and I’m not good enough at iso­lat­ing my per­sonal life from my work life. Oddly, the plane ride was a good chance to recharge my bat­ter­ies, read, and think for a while. Breath­tak­ing aer­ial views of the Rocky Moun­tains and the Grand Canyon on a clear, sunny morn­ing don’t hurt, either.

I think I’m going to sub­scribe to The Econ­o­mist. The com­pli­men­tary copy I got from the hotel in NYC a cou­ple weeks ago resulted in about eight arti­cles that I wanted to tear out and save. (How often can you say that about USA Today?)

This “HIGH SPEED INTERNET IN ALL ROOMS!” con­nec­tion is like a dialup routed through Kre­plachis­tan. Gotta go.
