also birmingham might be nice, the weather's nice there and its a growing
area, with lots of high tech jobs moving in.  Seattle is best choice,
Birmingham second...

Seattle probably has the highest cost of living of any of those places;
not sure whether that's a factor or it gets included in the pay.  Obviously
I'm partial to it.

 Of the choices I'd probably favor Vermont, Seattle, or Minneapolis, but I
 wish you success in any of them, should you land the internship..

St. Louis!

I am hoping for Seattle, not for the location (though it would rock!) but due
to the chief of the medical records department. I have heard some totally
awesome things about here. I am willing to move anywhere there is a job. In
an ideal world, it would be AA, but there is a very limited number of
hospitals, and the economics at this time are not so good.  Plus I am sure
there would be some dear friends who do stop in the Seattle area if I do go
there.. or MN, or St. Louis.  

I don't know what I would do in Nebraska... is there anything in Nebraska?

Why do you consider 'anything'?

in st. louis you could probably do weekends in A2, I mean what is it from
there, like an eight hour drive or something?

For weekends in A2, I would think Cleveland would be the best bet.

Cool beans Jen!!

IHB- It's almost the weekend, the hubby does NOT have to work a 16 hour
shift today, and we'll be in Ypsi tomorrow for gaming. Also, that the
annual Feb cat show in Lansing will include cat agility! :)

cat agility? That must be something to watch

How do they test cat agility?
mcnally
response 174 of 563: Mark Unseen   Jan 20 20:34 UTC 2006

 Good question..

 Dog agility trials are usually pretty entertaining to watch..
jadecat
response 175 of 563: Mark Unseen   Jan 20 20:43 UTC 2006

Same way as dog agility, except the course is smaller and it takes
longer... They have obstacles, tunnels and so on that the cats maneuver
around, they even have a ring for them to jump through- I've seen
pictures of cats that just stopped part way through the ring, deciding
to just dangle there. I've never seen it in person- so now I must go!

There's a dog show in Novi this weekend- but I haven't had luck finding
anyone who wants to go with me on Sunday and the hubby has to work. :(

re #175 it sounds like Leopolde could do well in a contest of agility...

Umm... yeah. Danger Boy!! Would likely be very good at it- if we could
keep his attention moving in the right direction...

I've never seen feline obstacle courses, but there is a test of cat hunting
capabilities with a long, pheasant tail feather.  Quick, accurate pursuit of
the feather is a necessity for champion cats.

While we think that every cat can do this, I witnessed an absolute failure
at the test.  The subject was too busy rubbing up against the judge to pay
attention to the feather.  Everybody said, "Awwwwwwwwww."  The judge herself
seemed pleased by the instant devotion from the cat, but scored the cat
(deservedly) harshly and explained why to the onlookers.

IHB I received an e-mail from the head of the social sciences department
at Washtenaw Community College asking about my interest in designing and
teaching a Chinese history course.

IHB our new kitten Eliot, installed in the house last Monday, is
adapting beautifully and is a lot of fun to have around.

re #179 hey congrats, that sounds like a really good opportunity.  Do 
you aspire to teaching?  I'm sure Washtenaw would welcome someone who 
has attended Harvard to their faculty.
