As someone who has googled my name and others (is that something one admits in public?), I found this article from the NYTimes interesting. I was always happy that I am the only one with my name, but I can kinda see the appeal in having a Googlegängers...
In other news, the Fellows took a trip to Albany this week to talk to NYC lawmakers and lobbyists. Unfortunately, most of our trip was thwarted by the fact that everyone was is still in the process of finalizing the state budget, which was 9 days overdue. Most of our speakers canceled. We did get to see the capitol building (well, it's more of a complex), and I've never been to Albany before so I was happy to be somewhere new.
The Fellows in front of some very picturesque government building... (Note the winter jackets despite the fact that we're almost midway through April. When is it going to be spring, again?)
Only five more weeks of the fellowship left! I can't believe it. For those who were wondering, I am going to be attending The New School next year to get a masters in urban policy. I also will be retiring this blog. Yes, it's sad but true. Next year I will take up the unassuming role of the starving grad student just like a million other residents of this great city. Where's the public interest in that? Just wanted to put out a warning for my loyal readers. Enjoy 'em while they last...

The blog can't end just because you're going back to school, can it??
Hey Hooly!
Crazy to believe you only have 5 more weeks left. When does The New School start?
I saw your parents' home on the market :( So sad. I guess it's official now, huh?
Email me if you have a chance.
Have a good day,
Ash
