After a 2.5 week trip to the Midwest to do the family thing, I'm back in Storrs. Nothing like a 15.5 hour drive the day before to focus the mind.
I want to thank David for his posts. For those not familiar with sociology publications (and, very, very few people in society are... a comment on sociology), several of David's posts are not far from publishable quality as research notes. In fact, maybe I'll just print them out and send them in to a journal :-)
We had originally intended to spend longer on the trip, but I realized that if I let David blog much more, the readers of this blog would get too used to the quality of his work...

A funny story from the trip: When looking at the South Bend paper, I read an article about how summer county fair goers were choosing healthier food... deep-fried vegetables.
Karibu!
ReplyDeleteWelcome home to blog! *smile*
ReplyDeleteYou were missed.
I also think David should start a blog of his own. If time is a factor he could make it clear right from the beginning that he'll only post once a week.(that should be manageable).
Other option: occasional contributor on your blog..David? Hope you're reading this ;)
Brad just dropped by my office, and he was also encouraging me to start one. I don't know if I will, but I've been persuaded to try worse ideas (e. g., "let's make money by betting on college football").
ReplyDeleteI vote for David to start a blog as well!
ReplyDeleteDavid,
ReplyDeleteIf you start a blog, I bet that it will be more successful that our college football efforts!
Oh, I remember the college football thing.
ReplyDeleteSociology goes where the mob has been for decades....
Except the mob makes money at it...
ReplyDeleteDavid,
ReplyDeleteIf you blog I'll comment regularly even if I don't know what you're talking about ;)
