Why is account necessary to read this content?

The distinction is that we were both recruited at the same time, as opposed to one of us recruited, and then the other is the "trailing" spouse. We're unique but there are a few other couples like us in b-schools.

It’s down in Encinitas. Looks like the cox website is hosed - outage maps won’t load, can’t log in, 504 errors. Downdetector suggests it’s down.

There's a meltdown happening in the produce aisle at Whole Foods - they ran out of fresh cranberries. And over in Deli, there's a couple calling the rest of the family on speaker about what now because they ran out of cherry pies.
