> The job search continues, but today I got a phone call that left me speechless. The guy from that ringing-me-back-after-six-months company called this morning and asked if I had a current passport. I said I did. He then told me that, whether or not I decide to accept the job with them, he needs somebody to go to Japan for a week or two at the end of March to write a story about some guy who's invented something, and he asked if I would mind doing it. So, uh. Wow. Yeah!

Sounds like fun. Let me be the first to wish you a great trip that's free of nasty airline food and baggage crammed under the seat in front of you, giving you next to no leg room.

M"well it happens to *me* everytime I fly"el

P.S. You'll post pictures when you get back, won't you?
