Weel, Pepsico turned me down. I interviewed at Caremark since, and am waiting on word from them. Pepsico was in downtown Chicago, so it woulda been a hell of a haul, Caremark is 1/2 by car, and would be perfect. So keep your fingers crossed.
Thank you for your concern Bill. I've been lurking, and even placing some new articles online, take a look see:

I've actually even been ice fishing. Had a good time, but caught nothing. I think since it was a derby and there were tons of people on the ice that day, they were spooked. I saw tons of fish under the ice, but no biters. They seemed dormant.
