It's nice to see the bully pulpit of being a "taxpayer" applied to something I believe in, Open Access. Of course my (silent) responce to the jerks mentioned above has always been, no *my* taxes pay my salary.rosenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2759846.post-1149006023583061952006-05-30T09:19:00.000-07:002006-05-30T09:20:23.593-07:00quickie postabout medical librariansrosenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2759846.post-1148443490930076682006-05-23T21:03:00.000-07:002006-05-23T21:04:50.940-07:00VArelated articlerosenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2759846.post-1143146741687323142006-03-23T12:45:00.000-08:002006-03-23T12:45:41.686-08:00Testtestrosenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2759846.post-1074643456725676532004-01-20T16:04:00.000-08:002004-01-20T16:06:15.450-08:00While I'm telling you what to do with your leisure time, might I recommend that you NOT see Big Fish.

The transition from working full time to going to school full time challenged my time management skills. Now I'm in my second semester here at OHSU, and think I've got a better handle on things.

I will be making my way there via Amtrack's Empire Builder. And then settling down in the Sabin neighborhood of NE Portland. I don't start school until the end of September.
