Portland Bound
I don't know if anyone cares about my personal life, but I'm moving to Portland, China next month. I finally got a job at an engineering place like I've always wanted. KLA-Tencor is hiring me to fix the machines that inspect silicon wafers at Intel's main fab in Portland, Oregon. It pays almost double what I'm earning now in my crappy actuarial job for the City of New York. So, I'll be earning more money in a cheaper place to live and driving my 8 a whole LOT more.

I'll elaborate some more tomorrow I guess. I just got back from an NSA interview today, so I'm really damn tired.

They said they'd pay to have it ship. Said that it would go in a big truck on top of the rest of my crap.

Danke, danke. There's still quite a bit left to be done here, but I'm looking forward to the change of pace.

Charlie - We'll work it out eventually.

Tony - Believe it or not, my dad and I still haven't cut down the main trunk of the tree. Everything is ready, but my dad is being real lazy. I plan on doing it before I move. So, what size cutting board do you need exactly? (Rough dimensions at least.)

Hell, I had forgotten all about until now. You've got enough to worry about, so if you don't get to it, don't worry about it. If you do, anything thicker than 4 or 5 inches will do just fine.

Thanks, man!

I may be back and forth a lot for the NSA stuff. So, I'll be in Baltimore on occasion and therefore, probably all over the place.

KLA-Tencor said that I probably have to spend about 5 months of the first year travellling between Portland and San Jose for training.
