Current highlights (most recently updated stuff)- Photo Albums, Year Late - Week 2
2008/7/3-My hospital orientation was all day Tuesday. It mostly boiled down to the following-
(My apologies to Scrubs.)
2008/6/20-The first day of summer seems like a fine day to get caught up on what I've been doing. The biggest thing has just been waiting for residency to start. I have some orientation things, and then real shifts start on July 1st. Surabhi has had a more robust orientation, and her first shift was today. We took a trip to Boston for Shan's graduation from Harvard and had a great time staying with long-time friend of flipse.com Pat Lally. We met up with Philadelphia's Sons of Ben for an extremely raucous trip to Giants stadium for the Argentina - USA international friendly on a very hot, then very wet day. We've also been tremendously entertained by the Euro 2008 soccer tournament. It's pretty much the next biggest thing to the World Cup, the level of play is probably higher, and games are still going on every day on some TV station that you probably get at home. I took a quick detour from Philadelphia down to Manchester, TN for my second trip to Bonnaroo. Eric Dougherty and I made the trip, and in the process saw all or part of sets by Vampire Weekend, Dark Star Orchestra, Jose Gonzalez, Umphrey's McGee, The Swell Season, The Raconteurs, !!!, Rilo Kiley, M.I.A, Chris Rock, The Wood Brothers feat. John Medeski and Kenny Wollenson, Donavan Frankenreiter, Ben Folds, Jack Johnson, Pearl Jam, Lupe Fiasco, Talib Kweli, Sigur Ros, and Kanye West. On the trip back, I did all the driving while Eric ran the co-pilot gig, while my nifty new GPS told us that we spent 12+ hours with the car moving, and a bit under 17 minutes with the car stopped. Finally, Surabhi and I grabbed the trains to New York, met up again with Shan, and helped him enjoy the box seats to the Padres-Yankees game on Thursday afternoon. Long work weeks for the recent med school graduates are already here or about to arrive, but we're determined to have a good time.
2008/6/1-Surabhi guest hosts today's update - "The newly minted Flipse wife invites you all to peruse our honeymoon pictures. As Dylan wrote before, we went to Paris, Santorini & Prague. Only a portion of our photos were assigned captions; hopefully these are enough to give you an idea of the sights & the story of our travels." Those links take you to the pictures with captions, we also have a larger set available as a photo album, though nothing close to to nearly 1200 pictures we took for the whole trip. We also had a second wedding reception this weekend, hosted by my mom in Williamsport. We saw (and Surabhi met) many friends of the family, and generally had a good time. Aunt Barb also made the trip, specifically requested these honeymoon pictures, and brought us a beautifully printed and framed print of this picture from Mitkof Island, Alaska by my uncle Doug.
I don't know how you could get here without knowing who I am, but...I'm Dylan Flipse. I'm a recent graduate of the Temple University School of Medicine. This site is entirely of my creation. I began it on January 1, 1999. The Pic Page and a few other things were brought over from my old Geocities site (link long-since dead). I'm currently 26 years of age, recently graduated from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH. I live in Philadelphia, PA. More about me can and should be gleaned from the various pages of this site. Enjoy.

And thanks to you for visiting.
The counter says people have visited. Needless to say, it counts too fast.
