See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

It's a man, baby! (I'm totally convinced it is, and as such, rant every time Martin is included in women playwright anthologies.)

What tipped you over? I'm in the vague and fuzzy probably-a-man-but-not-totally-convinced camp, with one foot in possibly-a-collective.

Also, seriously impressed at the ability of the person or persons behind Martin's persona to maintain total blinvisibility for so long.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

What tipped you over?

Wossname from Louisville always directs the world premiere (except for the latest one, which my friend Michael Dixon is directing - I think), and speaks for "her", and.... It smells.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

AARG! I bought a tagless t-shirt only to discover that it has a tag on the side seam at my waist. It's driving me nuts.

(It really is the little things that moves people to killing sprees.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hilary Swank and Husband Chad Lowe Split

And now they can both go be gay?

Seriously, the news makes me oddly sad. They always seemed so sweet.

Gahh! I'm trying to figure out the details of wireless pay-as-you-go plans, and they're stupid. According to Cingular, I have to give them, say, $15 for the base rate. But, if I only use $5 of phone time and don't give them any more money that month, then they can take the other $10 and keep it! Doesn't make any damn sense.

So it's only really pay as you go above $15/month, I guess? Or just prepaid, not pay-as-you-go at all.

I have Virgin, btw, and am happy to answer any questions. I've had it about a year now and I'm pretty satisfied.

Do you have to go to a store to get the Virgin, and will they take a phone from Cingular and just transfer the number over? I'm just looking to stop paying $40 a month for something I'm only using maybe for 10 minutes each month.

Nope, I got mine online.

and will they take a phone from Cingular and just transfer the number over?

Hmmm, doubtful. I know most phone companies don't like to let you use another company's phone. But the number should be no problem.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Typically, on a salary history, how many positions do you list? All that are on your resume?

Brenda, what website did you use? I tried to google it, and only got Amazon and a lot of review pages.

Aimee, last time I did my resume (admittedly, about five years ago), I went back about four jobs. When you fill out the application before the interview, they'll have room on the app for the rest of the jobs that you want to mention.
