Acquired Expertise…

Sorry for the delay, you hardy few who read this space on a regular basis – I’ve been busy doing not nearly enough down in Florida, where lots of sun and swimming pool time has been on the agenda. Tomorrow, we’re heading down to Miami for a few fun events, including an evening of Jai Alai (a staple of my trips down here). Plus, at some point I’ll get some good pictures of my trip this far up here, but in the meantime just imagine sun, family, and lots of me writing fellowship and job applications.

In the meantime, here’s a fun excerpt from an e-mail I recieved over the break:

Dear Josh,

We closed our video store 2 years ago. We still have left all of our adult vhs stock, about 2500 titles. We also have thousands of empty vhs display boxes to sell. Do you know anyone to contact for these items?

While my suggestions were pretty much limited to trying to unload the tapes on eBay or through the VSDA‘s classifieds, I figure I’ll lend a hand. So, if anybody out there wants to pick up 2500 adult videotapes, let me know and I’ll try to broker a sale.

When I started grad school almost six years ago, who knew the heights to which I would soar?

    And to think: people have the gall to wonder whether a Ph.D. in STS is good for anything!
