Briefly Noted:

I've got to make this quick, since I have to be leaving work for the weekly poker game. That means no taking an hour after work to draft up a post. But I am struggling to get back into the game here. So here's a quick update of the things that have happened recently:

1. I went with E Eugene to the Capital Brewery Beer Garden on Friday night. The Westside Andy/Mel Ford Band was playing, the weather was perfect, and the beer was delicious.

2. I went down to Illinois on Saturday (following the move) for my cousin's college graduation party. This also partly doubled as a college graduation party for my sister. Congratulations to both of them.

3. Last Wednesday I drove up to Silver Bay, MN for a site visit. Here's a picture of my car on a hill near the tower site. I wanted to get a shot of my car near the scenic overlook, with Lake Superior in the background, but it was not to be.

For those that don't know, I always take a picture of my car at the various sites that I visit for work. I've got some good ones. One of these days I plan on putting together a PowerPoint, but for now you all will have to stop by the office to see.

That's it. I've got to fly. The next show to be reviewed will be the Silver Jews at the High Noon Saloon.
