Three years ago, I left a powerful position at a large hedge fund in Connecticut, in hopes of finding a more fulfilling job. Over these three years, I’ve consulted to various financial firms, mostly to keep the cash flow as positive as possible. I’ve also worked with several startups and have a few articles published on a wide array of topics from hedge fund technology to psychology of online behavior to looking at politics online. At the same time, I have dabbled in essays and fiction.

Over the past couple of weeks, Zephyr Teachout has been traveling around the country, initially in an http://blog.deanforamerica.com/archives/001961.html >old Airstream bus before it broke down, speaking with grassroots organizers about the campaign and what they are doing in their area. She has been posting back to the blog her experiences. They are calling this Drive for Democracy, but I like to think of this as On the Road with Zephyr Teachout.
Fiona Elaine Hynes
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Tue, 10/09/2001 - 11:47“Yesterday, a child came out to wonder” spins off of the CD playing in the boom box in the maternity ward room. Kim is talking on the phone to a friend or relative; “Fiona Elaine was born yesterday morning at 7:52 in morning”. The TV is tuned to CNN but muted: “America strikes back!” “Fearful as the sky was filled with thunder, and tearful at the falling of a star”, Joni Mitchell sings. Kim and I are both tired. It was not an easy labor and there has been little sleep since.
