What the heck .. It's been way too long since I posted here ..
Life's moving fast .. a bunch of things have happened since the last time I posted here (in order of importance, not chronological):
1. got married,
2. got baptized,
3. passed my qual exam (all play and no study makes Jack a happy and not-so-intelligent boy),
4. bought (well, took out a mortgage to buy) a house,
That's all for now. Gotta do some work on my summer paper.
