Starting to consider taking some sort of travelling job immediately after graduation a la George Clooney in "Up in the Air". I know it's definitely possible for a Computer Science major with IT qualifications. Anyone have an advice/insight into how I should pursue this?
Stop concerning yourself with what job you're going to get until you're much closer to graduation, and don't do a major because it will get you a job, pick a major because you enjoy it.

That's my advice.
I graduate in 3 months.
Up until now, the question has been stay at my corporate internship where everyone has been awesome to me and I'm nigh guaranteed employment come May, or swallow the start-up kool-aid and pursue that. However, I've just made a startling revelation about a major drawback of both of these choices - I'm getting a little sick of New York City (I attend NYU). I know for a fact that it's the city I'll stay near for the rest of my life - my family is near by, I have made some incredible friends here, and I love the city itself - but I feel like I need to go explore (but not settle) in some other places first.
Not to mention I can still spend all that transit time coding games and the things that I'm interested in.
My present post-graduate plans: Pack up my car and set my sights on California. Put the hammer down for a high-speed burn straight to LA. Outrun my doubts at 100MPH.
Or as I like to say (overly simplified, but it makes the point), "Patriotism is rooting for your country in the Olympics. Nationalism is bombing the country that beat yours in the Olympics."

Ok this one is a serious random question. Just received work that I may be able to go and potentially work in Ann Arbor, MI. The Salary goes from shit to decent living. However I know next to nothing about the Ann Arbor area. So in case anyone in this forum is more familiar with the area any suggestions about the area that I would need to consider if I were to get this job?

In Ann Arbor, pedestrians rule the roads, and it's Michigan, so be prepared for snow. My sister lives in AA, and I'm not too far, so I can probably answer any specific questions you have.
You'd think that, but this winter was baby-mode. Hopefully next winter, everything will be covered in the stuff to compensate.
How much snow are we talking about?
The snow probably only stuck like 5 times this winter. And of those 5-or-so times, it only lasted about 7 hours before melting. Nothing more than a couple inches.

That's as far as I've gotten, really.
Actually, that's the shittiest pseudonym ever, and I don't particularly like it. It'll do until I think of something better, though.
My answers were Fabio for the sad single ladies, and Bruce Willis for the cool people.
I'm putting in a new power supply to my family's old pc.
