I live in central NJ. I just got an e-mail asking whether I want to umpire an October college tournament in Lowell, Massachusetts.

Before I decide, I'm checking to see whether they will reimburse first-class air travel, although with the airport situation today, I'm sure I'd end up in handcuffs for something in my equipment bag.

For college games, I routinely travel all over the enormous Garden State. Next year, however, I'm going to take back roads and avoid the turnpike and the parkway. Rumor has it that a certain former governor is trolling the rest stops again.
