Got a new job working at an engineering firm in the town next to mine. Pay is decent (14 an hour, full time w/overtime pay) and should give me the experience needed to get better jobs in the future.
Opinions are my own.

Kind of. The wedding was the last day of a week's vacation together. So it was sort of a pre-honeymoon. ;) We're planning a trip to possibly Alaska for sometime in a few months, though.

The new Gnarls Barkley album got leaked recently. :) Granted, for them it isn't good news at all, but I can't wait to hear it. (Y) (Y)

I doubt that it can get any less as it has been pretty minimal for a little while now....with wedding out of way, should actually be a little more free time than before....might finally be able to get into a college hoops legacy & an nba franchise....

World cities with the best talent in my experiences:
1.) Barcelona, Spain
Amazing. I've been there three times and by the time I leave my neck is in so much pain from all the "daamn, look at that".
2.) Buenos Aires, Argentina
Speaks for itself
3.) Rio De Janeiro, Brazil
See above
4.) Chicago, Illinois
I may be biased since I live here, and I've certainly seen more talent here then anywhere else, but it is very high quality. Percentages are in favor of the good looking ones here.
5.) New York City
Speaks for itself

Cities with the worst from worst to not quite as bad:
1.) Cincinatti, Ohio
Horrible. That was really a depressing 2 days.
2.) Frankfurt, Germany
Yuck.
3.) Portland, Oregon
Worse then I could have ever expected

Sorry man, I had a small sample size and I might have just been seeing a bunch of uggos from across the river in Kentucky. I'd be willing to give it a second chance.

I haven't been to many places outside of Southern California, but Vegas anyone?

So Cal ain't bad for "talent" either. Note to self: do not go to Cincinnati.
