Update from Santa Monica

It's been a great, interesting, and informative trip to California. Some news from the past few weeks:

Josh had a great fundraising quarter - thanks to all of you who contributed - and has a redesigned website up. He's also gotten some good coverage in various blogs lately.

Looks like the Bush Administration is up to its usual tricks...using seemingly independent "military analysts" to spread propaganda about the war for the past 6 years so. Really, why aren't disgraced or censured or arrested by now?? Maybe next year...

As for what's happening here, it's been glorious to be back in the West, back visiting one of my best past lives. I've seen a bunch of friends, had great food and great coffee, had great moments on the beach or in the hills. I've also met interesting new people and contacts and have had some good meetings & job leads. California is, as always, the land of opportunity. I'm close to taking the next step on a new job/new location; news on that later.

One specific tale from recent days: last Saturday I joined Katie and some friends to compete in the 2008 Grilled Cheese Invitational. Bread. Butter. Cheese. Victory! It was a raucous night of hot cheesy goodness up in Griffith Park. See photos on my Flickr page.

Gotta run now. I'll leave you now with a couple more photos...
