Sometimes you just have to call it quits, pull up stakes, and head home to greener pastures. A number of people are doing just that this weekend, and Bwoglines brings you their stories.
You know you must not be wanted when even Gov. David Paterson is worried you’ll make him unpopular. (Gothamist)
Speaking of the governor, Paterson just got an “It’s not me, it’s you” letter from Obama. Guess our favorite be-bearded, Senate-stymied, cocaine-use-admitting gubernatorial alumnus won’t be sticking around Albany much longer. Class Day speaker, anyone? (NY Times)
Among other politicans you won’t be seeing again for a long, long time: John Edwards. (Daily Intelligencer)
The one guy not leaving the scene any time soon? NYU President John Sexton—at least, not until 2016, by which point PrezBo will have already retired to a 10 p.m. primetime talkshow slot. (NYULocal)
But, for everyone else who managed to survive this week in New York: stay safe, work hard, and keep plucking that chicken. (City Room)

@jimmy dean This was their second away victory in 5 years.
Against a future NFL quarterback.
Nothing to yawn about.
@sausages Isn’t it par for the course?
From the CU presser, pre-game:
“Columbia and Fordham are meeting for the 18th time with the Lions holding a 11-6 series advantage. Columbia is now 23-9-1 all-time vs. New York City institutions of higher learning.”
@jimmy dean How about some coverage of OUR football teams big victory over city rival Fordham last night?
While they have struggled in the past, the new coaching staff is finally paying off, and we can expect to see some big things this year.
@sausages Yawn. Wake me up when they start playing the Ivies.
@how does the Edwards thing relate to CU?
