We're Recording on a Sunday Night!
Dan here:
It's Sunday night, the Celts could clinch, and we're recording a show about wrapping up the school year and setting yourself up for awesomeocity in the fall. It's all about having an exit strategy.
Jeff will talk about timelines in the tech talk and I'll yammer a bit about "Action Philosophers" and "Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope."
All that and a bag of chips.
