I was employed by the Federal Highway Administration from the mid 70s to 2008. I did work in many subject areas over this time but am probably known most for managing one of the big discretionary programs, for creating Interstate designation content and for research and management in the area of highway economic development.
I did other things over the years: e.g., taught people in the FHWA how to play the card game called "schafskoft", raised a family, served in the US Navy reserves, served on the board of various civic and religious organizations.
My daughter lives in Israel and the rest of the family have visited there many times.
Tonight was the Syfy movie Dinocroc vs Supergator.
This was the PREMIERE of this made of TV movie.
Dinocroc was a 2004 movie.
In Dinocroc vs Supergator, one of the actors is David Carradine (of Kung Fu TV and other fame). In the movie Dinocroc frequently walks on two legs, supergator on 4 but both run about as fast as a speeding car. At the end, the two fight and it seems as if Dinocroc wins (Gate didn't like this).
Supergator was a 2007 movie.

Graduation Bear, Commencement Speaker
Graduation Bear put on some extra clothes and went to Brandeis to give a special Commencement Address to the graduates getting their degree in Communications.
He mentioned that they should enjoy the post graduation parties and mentioned that he has his own consulting practice now. However, he was a bit sketchy on how this came about.
It was something like, "... and then after graduation, I got a job with a prestigious financial firm and, yadda, yadda, I now get fees for consulting."
