[Rhodes22-list] Got Gigs?

[Jim White]

Hey Slim:
One door closes, two open....sometimes we gotta just recognize 'em as doors.

It would be GREAT if you got to play down here on the Island....If I can be 
of any assistance in that area (I know just about everybody here), by all 
means let me know, contact me back channel, call or whatever.

I'm in a possible transition too...I've been offered an administrative 
position at double my current salary, so I am standing by for the reality. 
Would be leaving academic life behind, and actually entering the real world 
(gasp!)....
