Ellie as a Little Puppy
Ellie in Maine
Ellie My Siberian Husky
The name of this blog comes directly from my attempts at learning Hebrew. Nearly the first thing I learned to say was “The dog jumps.” It became a running joke amongst friends. But as you can see, I have a dog, who can jump, so it is kind of even sorta more funny…ANYWAY…here are some facts about me:
- Grew up in Maine
- Moved to NYC to go to Columbia Grad School – which I hated – you can read about what the lab does.
- Left school and started working for internet companies – some small startups, Toys R Us.com before they “merged” to Amazon.com, then for the airlines, Chuck Schwab, and now I work for a big publisher in “The City”.
- I have a lot of experience with computers, but please do not ask me to help you with Windows because my answer will be “Buy a Mac.”
- Into my saltwater tank, riding my Ducati, playing with Ellie & Blue (my sister’s smelly black lab)
- Enjoy traveling
- I have lots of random thoughts, like people should walk on their own side of the side walk, current fashion trends are abysmal, Louis Vuitton used to be classy now it is trashy, people who stand on the bus should be let off first because they have been standing the whole time, revolving doors are irritating, RFID is not the end of the all security forever, credit card companies are seriously predatory and the government should do something about it, Bush is an idiot, Gore has emerged as an elder statesman, marriage is questionable, post-feminism may just have it right, being Jewish is a wonder not a chore, and so many many many more.
- Family: Pretty much, Mom, Katie, Adam and my Father, Kent along with my Aunt’s and their families. I have a few other relatives that I am not in touch with, mostly due to internecine battles on both sides. Who knows why my Mother’s brother and sister have not been heard from in 25 years? It all gets so boring after a while.
