Hi Folks,

I'd like to thank everyone who emailed me with congrats about my PhD defense 
last week.  It was really nice to get so many good wishes from so many 
people 
in so many places.  The LUG comes through again!  :)

My PAW this week is from the Durham Chili Challenge, which was held on 
Saturday.  It was advertised (apparently without irony) as being the "only 
chili cookoff in the Triangle sanctioned by the Chili Appreciation Society 
International."  (The Triangle is the area between and including Raleigh, 
Durham, and Chapel Hill, North Carolina, with a population of around 1.2 
million, so the claim to fame may not be quite as impressive as it might 
sound.)  It was a nice, small-city kind of event, even if the 95 degree 
weather 
might not strike everyone as being perfect for eating hot, spicy food.

A main and an alternate:

Thanks for looking,
Aaron (who is a little freaked out to think he'll be a father sometime in 
the 
next few weeks)
