<\/a><\/p>\nHere’s a bunch of pictures from my reunion. When I was training for the marathon, I remember there were three goals to have. A realistic goal, a stretch goal, and one that you’re sure to meet so you aren’t disappointed. I remember those were beat Oprah (4:30), 3:30, and have a good time. For my reunion, I only had a couple of goals of having fun and eating a lobster roll. I hit both those within my first 24 hours. My first night, I had dinner with guys I hadn’t seen for twenty-five years. I figured they still wouldn’t be talking to me, but the stress of senior year at MIT was far in the past and we all got along as well as we did in earlier years.<\/p>\n
From the left, that’s Ron Duncan, Dr. Mike Malaska, me, and Dr. Juan Alvarez. Ron works at Synopsys, and Mike and Juan are pharmaceutical researchers. Mike was the guy who I was afraid wouldn’t talk to me but, like I said, we’re not in our senior year at MIT any more.<\/p>\n My other goal was easily met because Legal Seafood is next to the Marriott where I was staying.<\/p>\n Reunion weekend is the same as graduation, and I stopped to watch the parade of graduates come from Kresge Oval on the way to Killian Court.<\/p>\n Kresge Oval was also where we had a barbecue on Friday night, which reminded us all about MIT food. It was expensive ($38?) and awful. But it did give a chance to hang out with even more friends.<\/p>\n There’s Mike, me, Banleng James Toh, Ron, and Henry Woo. Henry’s the only one from the MIT Class of 1986 I’ve seen in the intervening 25 years.<\/p>\n Saturday night was our class banquet which coincided with MIT’s 150th. I didn’t take all that many pictures, but I do have prof that I saw Bobby Satcher, who is now Dr. Robert Satcher, M.D., Ph.D., Astronaut. You can see the MIT 150 on the Hancock Building, or whatever it’s called now.<\/p>\n That’s Mike, Henry Dr. Satcher, me, Randall Nelson, and Ron.<\/p>\n Sunday I left pretty early to make it to Apple’s WWDC in San Francisco. I did have a chance to meet the guys at a caf\u00e9, including Dr. Paul Dimilla before I got in a taxi for the airport.<\/p>\n That’s Henry, James, Paul, and Mike.<\/p>\n That’s all the MIT pictures I have so far, and I think 25 years was too long to wait to see those guys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" My computer is still being difficult and it is my own fault, but it’s working fairly well.
