In case LJ implodes...

There have been various rumors about a LJ imminently imploding due to massive layoffs. If that happens, I'm "zandperl" just about everywhere that I'm not on with my real name - the ones I use most often are as follows: Twitter is zandperl; Facebook is real name; Flickr I have two accounts first is zandperl and second is first initial and last name (no punctuation); Gmail dittos Flickr.

If you want me to be able to find you elsewhere, feel free to drop a note here w/ which service and username, or any other contact info you want. All comments screened unless you specify otherwise.

Nerd school

As if nerdcamp kids weren't strange enough, here's a whole NY Times article about people cramming for the entrance exam for the high school I went to. I can't recall being that insane about it myself.

Edit: The punchline at the end, what if they don't get in? "I’ll be sad, ... but there’s still Stuyvesant." LOL!
