Mike Fitzgerald) have accepted offers at full-time employers so we've had three Klingers-filled going away parties. Thanks to Carol for arriving at Klingers very early in the morning to get sugar cookies, pies, and cakes to send our workers out in style. :) See some of those great Klingers desserts "after the jump".

Harjit took this photo of us. It was taking so long that I was giving him the "take the (darn) picture al(darn)ready!" look, and of course that's when he took it. ;) I fixed Matt's red eye, but left my own for effect. Matt's leaning over because we were joking about how much taller he is. I'm 5'4", he's 6'2" (he told us on the first day of class).

The kiwi and blueberries are supposed to be butterflies, but Bess points out they look a bit more like angels. :)

Best of luck to you, Henrie. We definitely miss you!!!

She's awesome. Unfortunately, I did not get a photo of the entire cake since I was two full minutes late for the event and seven people were already munching on cake when I arrived, but here are photos of what was left, and Mike enjoying a nibble.

Roger Bombardier will be returning home from Iraq in March, at which time he will go through proceedings to be discharged from the Army National Guard and become 100% civilian.

You can visit the alerts at www.uvm.edu/cit/antivirus/?Page=alerts.html. Not all alerts are posted to IT-Announce, the CIT news page, or the UVM broadcast listserv, since not all maladies are created equally, but alerts considered critical which I become aware of will go on the alert page. I'd appreciate feedback and design change ideas. (Harjit? :)
