>a Ph.D and four years of experience for 45K. WTFF?
That seems normal (and even just a little high) for a position in the arts or humanities at my university. You also often have to have a masters to be an administrative assistant making 30K
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
oh why didn't I realize grape leaves would stain? Now my favorite white plastic bowl is lined with green. On the bright side I have feta-stuffed grape leaves in the fridge waiting to go with me to game night and get broiled. It was so easy and I only used half a jar. I'ma bring home some ground lamb in the near future and do the rest of them up right.

Laga - can you run some warm water and bleach in the bowl? let it sit and it should remove the stains.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, damn, Nora, Tom, that sucks. Man, this loathsome and godforsaken economy!
I'd join Hec in urging you to move, except that I've hung out at your current house and it's just so pretty and charming that I can't in good conscience urge you to abandon it for the crack-addledness of the California housing market.
Also re the economy, Matilda and Dylan will do us all a favor if, when the day comes, they elope, unless her dream wedding involves invitations by Post-It and a buffet of Trader Joe's snack foods on one of the picnic tables in Golden Gate Park.
Urgh. Work is kicking my ass and I'll have to go blinvisible after I hit "post." I miss everyone something dreadful.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Attended local wedding in Olympia Washington Sunday. The couple rented a lightly used portion of a large park for a low sum. For the reception, a friend lent them the use of a large in a rural area that included a gravel parking lot able to hold several hundred cars. The reception was potluck, with cake a gift from a baker friend. (The invitations specified no gift, so the potluck part was no imposition, and provided better food than most local caterers would have .) My contribution was silk road cous-cous - curried cous-cous with sweet peppers and onions, garbanzo beans, peas, cashews, almonds. Was one of the first dishes to disappear. The curry sauce used to flavor everything was a simple lightly sweet one - curry powder, cardoman, garlic, honey in veggie broth.
And yeah economy sucks. Sorry about everyone who is hit by it.

Man, I've never seen anything like the disability press for expecting everyone to agree on everything. I'm having to defend my views on assisted-suicide again. Personally, I think there are cases where it could be appropriate. I don't think that point of view is terribly extreme, but I catch a lot of hell for it. Apparently, even a chink in my armor is enough to let Dr. Mengele and his experiments slip in and have a real good day. Sigh. sometimes I hate crip culture. War in Iraq? Too controversial. The economy: they were supposed to let us play. This America. What really gets "us" to take to the streets?: Mom, Ben Stiller's making fun of us! (Olbermann) Idiots!(/Olbermann)
