			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know I&#8217;ve been slow with updates recently, but I&#8217;ve been swamped with work during the weekdays, and weekends; well weekends are weekends and I don&#8217;t want to be in front of a computer on a weekend. Anyway, work has been going well, finished up a fairly interesting project, and got a couple of things in the pipeline. With my company, I&#8217;m setting up the bank account for it; so the next set is going to be trying to get a trade line/credit card without a pull on my personal credit. I think that should be possible if I get a Staples Credit Card.</p>
<p>I feel like I need to devote a seperate post to the past weekend. Hopefully should get time today to type that up as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>And another reason why I want to move off Long Island and to New Jersey: the LIRR only has one tunnel going east and one tunnel going west out of Penn Station. So if a train breaks down in the tunnel, everything behind it gets messed up. </p>
<p>Apparently there was a broken train earlier this evening and as a result every train was delayed for 30 minyuea as they tried to fix the problem. At least I knew about the issuse through Clever Commute and was able to enter the station from the back and not get stuck waiting. But that is beside the point. </p>
<p>How would I fix this problem?  Simple, dig more tunnels. I know they are building a tunnel for the west side access but that won&#8217;t be done for 5 years. Till then build another tunnel. What&#8217;s more, the economy is crappy, use this as a massive public relief project; anyone that wants a good paying job can come and help dig this tunnel. I&#8217;m sure we can get it done. </p>
<p>Either hopefully I&#8217;ll be moved out to Hoboken early next year and won&#8217;t have to deal with these problems.</p>
