Yep, I had an offer to be flown out for an in-person interview for a 
permanent gig there in Hilo early this year, but we (the fambly) talked it 
over seriously, decided we need a little more urban environment - Oahu 
(Honolulu area) would be perfect. So I hadda be honest with the folks and 
not get a free 4-day trip out to visit the telescopes, but I felt a lot 
better about myself not having taken advantage of 'em. Hopefully I laid in 
a little good karma.

Nah, not ready right now (unless the newly laid off status goes too long, 
then we might have to look at more complex options). W/family concerns, 
either next summer of 6 years on would be the times to move. If it were 
possible. If anybody wants to take a look at the resume, though, ping me.

Believe me, brah, I'm workin' that angle! It's tough, though - you can 
imagine. Plus, I have this aversion to working for three-letter-agencies. 
I'd much rather be a private-sector guy.

Now, back to composing my linux-related post.

Andy!
