Thanks for the kind words and smileys, guys. It isn't much - equivalent to six months salary - but it feels pretty damn good to be on the winning team again after one hell of a dry spell

Congrats Beefy... nice that all the hard work was worth it!

Unfortunately, this is a grant I submitted back in March. I won't find out about the ones I am working on now until next April

Got notification of a successful grant application. Highest ranked, and 100% funded

Congratulations. It's good that you are skilled at this because grant application writing will probably be a big part of your professional future.

No, but I did take his money on the golf course this morning. They hate that, you know!

Tried Disc Golf. Harder than it looks but fun and free (after buying the discs).

4 courses here in town. Looking forward to trying them all.

Easy game to get hooked on. I'm not so fond of super technical courses, but do like tight fairways that require some skill to navigate. Unfortunately, I'm not skilled.

Set up my β22 that returned home today. :prettyprincess:

Nate for President!

Pix or ass ream.

Binge watched the entire season one of Prison Break. Then drank beer.

This PhD is off to a productive start.

Well we all know how I love a good ass ream, but...

No real change to aesthetics yet. The recase will happen this winter.

I don't know why you would want to do that.

Congrats on getting them back, better than new!

Oh just wait until you see the new cases! And they'll breath much better.

Watched new episode of House "Epic Fail", caught up on the new season of Heroes, and about to try The Big Bang Theory season 3, ep2.

You should stop posting now.

Fought with Marketing. Fought with Marketing. Went to curriculum night--for 3-year olds.

It was our anniversary today. Spent the day at the beach. Stayed in our friends' trailer in Briny Breezes. It was lovely.

Interesting choice, Steve. Dual Sigma22, but just one Beta22?

His mono rig needs a lot of juice.

My shipment of household goods showed up today, so I had fun time arranging everything to fit in my garage nicely.

Interesting note: only with the US Government can you ship a crate by plane two weeks before shipping out the rest of the crates by boat....and have the boat shipment delivered before the crate shipped via air.

Yeah, Judy Garland didn't put out stereo recordings 'til later in her career.
