That is a whole different problem, Vortex. Poor bride.

On the news. Grr. Some muckety-muck in the government is saying that cities and states need to pay more of the security costs for public transportaion, that the federal government is already spending a fortune on airplanes. As he put it..."An airplane can kill 3,000 people. A bomb on a subway might kill thirty."

and the continued silence on a projected upcoming flu pandemic is deafening.

Aaah. Too. Much. Posting.

OK- I've had an ex and 2 friends who kept snakes. They all got live feed. (Except for the one time there was a mouse who was too small, and the snake wouldn't have eaten it, just played with it. They let me hold it, their mistake, so it became Ralph.) None of them seemed especially cruel, and I think the ex's snakes were mostly his girlfriend's. Though there was one time we went into a pet store to get mice and there was a baby in a playpen by the register. He goes up to the counter, asks for however many feeder mice and then says, "and how much for that." pointing at the baby. It was pretty funny in a very sick way.

I have not seen last nights TDS because I went to bed very early for my interview today.

That interview, BTW went pretty well. If it works out, they'll want me to start tomorrow. While I was there, filling out an application, a call came in for another open position (one that doesn't really sound interesting). Do I call them back to schedule an interview or not?

Thanks, Nora. Emily or vw, would either of you be interested? He's a German guy in his late 20s. Nice guy, funny, prone to philosophical musings on art theory. He's a heavy smoker; I don't know how big a problem that would be for you. You can ping me at my profile address if you're interested.

Congrats on the interview, Heather. Calling back the open position depends on how not interesting it sounds, I think. I'd schedule an interview, on the theory that even if you end up not being interested in the position, it's ghood practice. You can always cancel if you end up starting today's job tomorrow.

That's my instinct, -t. If nothing else, I should call back and thank them.
