Salary/Benefits - Yes

Hey Guys,

Well, there hasn't really been too much activity on the Blog lately, so hopefully my good news will jump start things.

Well, I found out yesterday that someone thinks I'm worth hiring. Starting November 26, I'll be the new Program Associate for Transportation at the Northwest Municipal Conference (bam). Their offices are located in Des Plaines (which is a Northwest suburb of Chicago - not far from O'Hare). Essentially, they are a council of local governments that utilize economies of scale and collective strength for a number of services. I'll be working on transportation planning for a group of suburbs on the North Shore (big money places). I'll help them spend federal money for regional projects. I'll also coordinate with other agencies and groups, and help address transportation issues for the NWMC's region.

I have to say that I'm pretty relieved and excited. So, for sure next year, when you guys come for football games, you'll be able to stay at "my place." It probably will be small, and won't fit you nearly as comfortably as my parent's house, but oh well.

Anyways, Notre Dame might be the worst football team in College Football this season. I heard Navy was upset that they let Notre Dame take them to overtime.

Peace Out,
Chris

Congrats, brother! Finally, you've become part of the system -- i.e. THE MAN. Have fun keeping handsome black men like myself down. Can't wait to see the place next season, man. Hopefully the football team will win a game.

This is great news, congrats Chris they are lucky to have you!

Regarding the football team. Having called our loss to Navy, im realizing that at this point there is a part of me that wants to see us lose out. Am I alone here?

So glad its basketball season. Go (Lute-less) Cats.
