19. Here's a congratulatory prayer my mother taught me....
Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing.

He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

But I'm in a good mood, I'll let that Rumsfeld contamination in my job thread slide.

84. Indeed it has!
I thought, naahh, there's no way the lounge can help me get a job. Shit, I've been without a decent job for what seems like for-fooking-ever. I used to make an obscene amount of money, but was too young and dumb to know what to do with it. Then the dot.com implosion happened, and suddenly we WERE ALL out on our luck. That was in 2001. Early 2001, 9/11 had nothing to do with it.

But, I had a GI BILL system that owed me money for college, and I took it, because, dammit, I earned it. And I put myself through school, and did the menial jobs on the side to pay for it all. And here I am.

107. truthfully that's what I wanted to say --
but this medium is so scary, the way you can't get looks, voice inflections, body language across. I wasn't sure you'd know it was meant in a spirit of friendship. Dick.

104. Dayum! That was FAST!
Just saw you say on another thread that you are a grouchy old ass for hire....

Whoever hired you (and your grouchy old ass, of course) made a very wise choice, if you ask me!

:woohoo:

I'm happy now. Hell, for the first time ever, I think DU is going to see what kind of a person I am when I'm happy with my job.

Wow.
