met up with my friend Steve for dinner and drinks tonight. had not seen him in may years. it was great catching up, he now lives in dallas, tx, and happens to be in nj doing some consulting work for his company.

we stopped by home, then headed out and ended up at the smith. super packed and loud as usual, but awesome food. he had to go take a train back to his hotel, so just dropped him off at penn station a few min ago. fun.

Pretty good day, got to meet Mr Barry Sternlicht, quite a sharp and interesting guy, very impressive. Watching CSI Miami now, having dinner. Finally a new episode. Not going to stay up very late, need to catch up a bit on sleep.

Heard from my ex-colleague and friend Steve today, he is doing some consulting work in NJ, so sounds like we should be able to meet up one of these evenings, cool.

pretty long day, just getting home now. gotta eat something, read the papers.

bill sent this interesting math article on the NYTimes:

Super nice and sunny out. Getting ready to head to NJ. Yesterday Super Saturday went well. After we went done we headed to the back room of Vic 27 for a bit, where everybody gathered up, and then to The Griffin in the Meatpacking, which was ultra-packed.
