hedgehog locale update

quiz:
what do jessie jackson and john ashcroft have in common?
...thomas sowell and paul wolfowitz?
...milton friedman and kurt vonnegut, jr.?

answer:
they all went to the university of chicago.

and soon i will, too. in chicago's masters program i will study lots of fun and exciting stuff, like brains (yes, brains are fun! and exciting!). i'm taking the summer "off" so officially no longer staff here (although i'd like to think of myself as director emeritus), and will instead be here for the next few months.

now that i'm finished freaking out about those decisions, i'll probably do some more blogging...

Congratulations. I am certainly hoping that you turn out most like Jessie Jackson. A penchant for rhyming prose might improve the digestability of neuroeconomic reseach.

An academic voice.

but to succeed i "must know it is not my aptitude but my attitude that will determine my altitude."
