Granted it was written at least 14 years ago (that's when I first encountered it), I always felt Doug Yeo's resume advice was great and is still applicable today.

Okay, Karl... I've been waiting to see if you were going to spill the beans, are you the one retiring?

Yep, I'm the old guy retiring. Sorry to have not posted in a while, but all these one-nighters are taking a toll (that's my story and I'm sticking to it for the next 5 days).
Looking forward to an excellent player replacing me. I'm behind on PM's also, so I'll try and get back to everyone soon...

All I know is 9 in semis, James Land, Kyle Huron, and Dan Castillo were among the group.
Kyle and Dan made finals. 2 very fine candidates to pick from.

According to Dan, Kyle is being interviewed for the position. I guess we'll see what comes out of it.
Congrats again to both finalists and semi-ers!

Congratulations to my section mate, Kyke Huron! He's an incredible musician, workout buddy, and friend! He has been working his butt off! Well done!
