I'm doing an internship in a different department at the moment. The one person who currently does the job has found another job within the company. Being the only intern, when the position became available to apply for, I applied.

Okay, it's official now. I'm not sure if anybody noticed it, but we're here now at the new domain of LongboredSurfer.com. If you typed in the old address, you'll have been forwarded here automatically. No longer am I limited to being a sub-domain… I'm my own whole domain. Hopefully with this place being here, I'll really take advantage of it all. Glad to have you here. Welcome… again… to The Longbored Surfer. Yippie!

Sounds like a great idea….. not.

I recently attended a basketball game with my favorite sports team, the San Antonio Spurs. My favorite player is Manu Ginobili. We went to the game early so that we could get some autographs. Of all the players that signed autographs, Manu was clearly the most sought-after, as well as the most accomodating.
