Good choice on staying and going to the interview.
Hopefully you will make another good choice based on this:

If this job interview is truly that important to you, do yourself a huge favor. Go over to Barnes and Noble or Borders and get this book:
No-Nonsense Job Interviews by Arnold G. Boldt. Costs $14.86, that is including the MAss sales tax. It will be the best $14 you will ever spend in your life. Think of it as buying a nice plug that you are going to use over and over again to catch that supa cow job. It is a quick and easy read, and it WILL make the difference. It will help you and prepare you for job interviews for everything from shovelin horse shat to runnin a fortune 500 company. I first bought a copy when I got out of college and then went and got it again a few months ago during the job hunting process. It will open your eyes not only just to job interviews, but in dealing with people you meet in general.
Read it a couple of times over the weekend and be prepared to wow the shat out of the interviewers.
Good luck. We need another tax paying worker in the US.

That's the other voice in my head talking ... the one that made me sleep on the idea for a day. The same voice that tells me to have one more beer ...

Better yet, let's shoot a vid: "Any Luck? on Block!" Starring Any Luck? himself.

Videos of heinous skunkings aren't that marketable, but what the heck, we could try.

Yes indeedy, it was the longest interview ever. 5.5 hours.

I should be finding out sometime during the last week of the month. Between now and then, I'm dying!

If I get hired, I'm moving to the Ocean State! If not, I'm moving to the Ocean State ... eventually ... even though there are no fish in RI.

I'll keep you all posted.
