You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

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

Where are you? If you're at your hotel, go to Coit Liquor on the other side of the park. They should have it.

We have seltzer! It's called Calistoga! Or Perrier! Or uh the Italian one. Pelligrino!
And it's better than NY seltzer. You know why? It comes out of the ground. Like all the good things: zombies, diamonds, Buffy, artichokes.

Er, where does NY seltzer come from?
And I still haven't written my cover letter.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I don't mind multitasking or self-supervising or handling difficult people or anything; I'm just kinda burned out on doing all that for never quite enough money to get by.
This is me, even down to taking my current job so's I can help people. Well that and being treated like crap by some of our clients or partners.
Memo: Me saying "no" is not being rude.

Note to self: when typing in word, you don't actually have to put the html code to make italics.

That is why Word is so boring.

Hell, I've done that when writing with pen and paper.

This is what results in people saying "LOL" out loud, of course. We must be ever-militant!
Also, I've slid over the line from "Hi, here's my resume, I want a job" into a several-page philosophy of education and why I'm a perfect fit. I really hate finding that line.

You had to code things like bold and italic in WordStar and I think in the first version of Word. When I started learning HTML, I thought, "Wait, I've done this before, back when 256K was thought of as a really big harddrive."
