May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Even if I cut off a couple of K for lack of specific experience, that's nearly double what I'm making now. Excuse me while I hyperventilate. I wish I knew why success terrified me so.

Connie, some of the surveys I saw had entry level tech writers in Utah closer to $36K. Still a big bump for you, and you could probably move up the ladder quickly.

Loki just tried to bite Mister Kitty's butt (balls, actually.) MK ignored it totally. It was kinda hilarious. Loki reacted as if he was expecting retaliation and was puzzled it didn't come.

connie, I hope you get the job.

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.

For those looking for a "lighter side", McSweenys offers Facebook Hamlet

Hamlet wonders if he should continue to exist. Or not.

Hamlet thinks Ophelia might be happier in a convent.

Ophelia removed "moody princes" from her interests.

PETA wants Ben & Jerry's to replace Cows' milk in their ice cream. I never produced enough milk to try to make ice cream out of it.

“Not dead yet!”

PETA wants Ben & Jerry's to replace Cows' milk in their ice cream. I never produced enough milk to try to make ice cream out of it.

I'm trying to think of what the cow milk equivalent of this would be.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

PETA is just irritating. (A few people on a vegan board I'm on have idly considered starting Vegans Against PETA. Seriously, they're the most public face of the animal rights movement, and a good deal of the time they just look ridiculous.)

The thing is, even the radical groups have their place. They make the moderates look reasonable and it does allow them to get issues raised and injustices fixed.

Still, wish they could back off with the batshit crazy sometimes.
