alike but so so different. Seattle: hillier than I remember. Portland streets aren't as complicated, but I don't get that thrill of navigational mastery that I do in Seattle. Portland: more bridges. More laid back. Happier biking. MAX! Seattle, you are nice but my GOD do buses suck.

from:
New York
to:
New York
correspondence:
There are some people who were born in New York City, have stayed in New York City, and spend every minute of their lives away from New York City complaining about how much better everything is in New York. I love the place too, but there are times when New York's size and cultural prominence are used as covers for plain old provincialism.

everett, WA
to:
Seattle
correspondence:
The drive from Vancouver, B.C., to Seattle isn't all that long, but it's long enough. When you get to Everett, though, your spirits pick up, because you know you're getting near home. For Jodi and I, "We're in Everett now" has become code for an arduous undertaking that is almost done.

I went to Cornell. Thomas Pynchon went to Cornell. I moved out to Seattle to work at Microsoft. Pynchon went to Boeing. Quit following me, buddy!
from:
New Orleans
to:
Philadelphia
correspondence:
New Orleans has Mardis Gras and Philadelphia has the Mummers Parade. For me all parades are a kind of nostalgia: you think, boy I bet this was a lot more fun back in the 1800s. But it takes special dedication to drag yourself down to center city hungover on a cold, wet, windy day.
from:
New Orleans

from:
Mobile, Alabama
to:
Muncie, Indiana
correspondence:
The final sequence of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" was filmed in Mobile, Alabama, where I used to live. (I have this vague childhood memory of being at a swimming pool and talking to people who had played aliens.) The film is set part in Muncie, where I also used to live. Why is Steven Spielberg following me!
from:
Abington, Pennsylvania
to:
Cheltemham, Pennsylvania
correspondence:
I lived in Abington while Charl lived just down the road in Cheltenham, so we didn't actually go to the same high school, though I think of her as my high school girlfriend because she's one the person from that time I'm still in touch with.
from:
Kyle, Texas

Austin, Texas
correspondence:
Spent Thanksgiving 2007 with my parents in Kyle, which is farther away from Austin than you'd think. But I guess everything in Texas farther away than you'd think.
from:
Husdon, Ohio
to:
Mayfield, Ohio
correspondence:
The winter after I graduated college and moved back in with my parents I spent a lot of time driving aimlessly around northwestern Ohio. One of my favorite things to do was head up to Mayfield to hang out in the Barnes and Noble.
from:
Chicago

Boston
correspondence:
Both cheesy rock bands. (Though I'll admit that "More Than a Feeling" is a great song.)
from:
Seattle
to:
Saarbrucken
correspondence:
Apparently a lot of research that uses the HPSG syntactic framework gets done in Saarbrücken. Since I've done some work with HPSG, I'm half hoping to land a post-doc there, or somewhere else in Europe.

When the Challenger exploded, my Dad came to my elementary school to tell me in person. I was fascinated with everything about space, and this was a huge tragedy that I remember vividly. I recall everything about the school coatroom where he told me. I realize now why my Dad felt it was important for me to hear it from him.
