Come on...who else are they going to go with (at least for distro)?

Big congrats, Dri.... You hadn't mentioned coming to LA proper as of yet. Which part o'town will you be moving to?

i heard a rumor that they were going to warner. but i don't think that's official because my best friend works there and she said that there wasn't an announcement about it.

anyway kyle, i'm looking at the silverlake/echo park area. i hate miracle mile, even though that's where i'll be working... hollywood is too much, and you know how i feel about the west side. ;) i've been wanting to move for awhile, but it was my current job holding me back... so around feb/march i'll be moving up there.

it's a lateral move... assisting the VP of strategic marketing & research blah blah blah. i'm miserable at my current job, and this opportunity came up and everything fell into place.

and sure, i'm down to swap. i start on the 16th. :D
