This weather is just too good. I wish I had someone to play with!
Job Hunt
Hooray! I'm employed! Well, sortof... I got the job at Publix, less than mile from my house. It's only part time, but it's getting out and working and earning money and having something to do. Publix also has a promote-from-within policy and pretty fast moving up the ladder, so it's a possibility. Hey, I don't want a dead end job! They'll call me today with all the information and I have to take a drug test.
The real job hunt is Dead In The Water. I keep trying, but I'm not getting anywhere.
Congress, Pages and Scandals
Ho-hum. Same old Same old. I grew up in DC and I remember when I was in High School, there was an article in the Washington Post about what congressmen did with male and female pages. And that was back in the Dark Ages. This is no suprise to me, men who feel they are above the law will use their power to corrupt and control anyone as vulnerable as pages. And women too, they just aren't as likely to use sexual control.
The Dems are taking this issue and running with it, the GOP is trying to sweep it under the carpet. But nothing will get done. Why would these men eliminate such a good source for recreation? Either they're doing it, or they know of other men who are doing it.
I read a really great quote on Sunday 'Whate we don't have to do is allow our friends on the left to lecture us on morality. There's a certain stench of hypocrisy.' This from Mr. Morality himself, Newt Gringrich. How many wives has he had? Anyone who tries to legislate morality will get caught doing something immoral.
I don't care which side of the fence you're on, most of these politicians are morally corrupt. You have to be to lie to your constituants about representing them in government. To smile when you shake their hand and take their money. To spend other people's money on a favorite project that will line your pockets and bankrupt some of your constituants. It's not pretty.
I'll get Off My SoapBox now
I just heard that Jennifer Wilbanks (the Runaway Bride) is suing her ex-fiance for some money (and a quilt and a ladder) that they got for selling their story. Isn't her 15-minutes of fame over yet? Didn't she learn anything? Just shut up and get over it.
This North Korea thing is scary. Kim Jong-il is an uncontrolled crazy man. So I guess the US will now go into North Korea and kick some Korean butt, huh? Pull all the National Guard off the border patrol and go to Korea. But they still won't have the proper equipment, what's needed in Korea isn't what they are using in Iraq. As David Letterman says, 'Kim Jong-il and his brother Menta Lee-il.' Works for me.
More to come...
As things happen, I'll be posting. Thanks for taking the time to read. You're opinions are welcome but if you have to start calling me names, don't bother, I won't read them. As my Dad says 'Opinions are like a**holes, everyone has one.'

Congrats on the new job, just getting out will be such a boost for you.
I took the day off yesterday, federal holiday, so my office was closed. My company doesn't recognize Columbus day, so they set up a bunch of 'classes' for us. They all seemed like pretty much a wasted of time so I took it easy yesterday. It was great. I need to take more time for myself.
I slept late, sat outside to drink my coffee, took the dog for a walk and met a friend for lunch. After a quick trip to Home Depot to order new cabinet doors and pick up a screen door it was home to work in the yard for the rest of the day.
