If for every one of her television appearances, she’ll vow very clearly to shut down the Dept. of Education and relegate all teachers to private sector employment, I’ll consider supporting her.

Yes, she is so beautiful... and in every way. THAT is one of my favorite pic’s of her, but any pic of her makes me take an extra breath.
Thanks. :)
I haven’t as yet read the conversation/debate, but I just had to comment on your instant post.
I love your ‘dress down’. I am glad we are on the same side. ;>)
I can be quite nasty, but your words flow so darn well.
“MAN UP”~~ common, but nice start.
“Hand me the info, please?” ass, “~~ I like that one and it adds to the start.
“you sniveling quint.” ~~ my personal favorite.
“navel-gazing hole” ~~my second favorite.
“you putrid squid.”~~my other personal favorite.
“Grow a pair, or ask Mommy to buy you a pair for Christmas.” ~~outstanding close. LMAO
I just couldn’t let this post go, it really was that good. IMHO
There's our problem.
I heard on the radio the other day (there was no attribution) that some 23 percent of Americans could not identify what country the USA attained its independence from. That is just downright disturbing.
Merry Christmas, Gator.

Gee, I’m glad I didn’t give you a snarky reply.
I was actually going to call you a nOOb, as a joke and I would have included the requisite “/s”.
For some reason I thought better of it and you wouldn’t find it funny anyway.
I feel for you brother. There are a lot of Freepers who have taken jobs that are not their ideal, not even close, just to get by.
You hang in there and thank God for whatever you are grateful for.
I really appreciate your post and sorry you felt compelled to share it.
Can’t believe you typed all that on a cell phone.
What type of work did you do before?
Oh, PM me if you like.
Merry Christmas to you too. ;>)
Thanks for your kind reply. :)
I have over 20 years in information systems as a technical and business writer/analyst. So many IS/IT jobs have been shipped overseas, that work is extremely hard to find in my field.
That is a very tough job to get these days.
What about learning a new trade, that pays more?
I know you have probably thought about it.
Oh, I have an idea. Why not become an Amway distributor? One thing about the soap is good times or bad people are going to wash stuff.
Then their is another company ACN. The cool thing about ACN is it is residual based income and you could eventually get to the point where you make enough money $100, $200 thousand and up per year.
Cool thing about ACN is it is similar to my business. I have a telephony company and an ISP. My customers are commited to using services, I happen to provide, that help their company become more productive and even do it a lower cost.
The best part is I don’t sell them again and again and I don’t have to go out every month to sell something or starve.
The compensation is annuity based residual. For instance, I have customers that spend anywhere between $1,000 and $20,000 per month. I take 10-18% of that number as my commission.
If I don’t work for 6 months my income stays the same as the day I stopped working and it actually goes up because my customers are growing and they order new services all the time.
In fact, I have customers I helped more than 8 years ago and I am still getting paid.
I don’t directly work for any of the telecoms so I don’t have push their meme or put with any of their crap as an employee. Even better, is that when I did work for them I was paid one time on a sale and that was it. Every month I had to go out and make another sale if I wanted to pay my bills or spend my weekends in Tahoe.
Now a customer who spends $10,000 per month nets me more than $1,000 a month whether I turn on the light switch at my office or not. I have several of those types of customers. But on average my customers spend about $3,000 per month and I have a lot of them.
You can do the same thing with ACN and it’s easier for you to learn how to do that rather than what I do and the way I do it.
I am not selling you ACN but offering it as an idea you might consider. Same thing with Amway I don’t sell it but I do buy the products.
So think about those types of opportunities. They fit your schedule so you can do them at 7 or whenever and still make it to work.
You don’t really have anything to lose by trying and who knows, in a year or two you could replace your income with something that is more permanent and stable.
The you get to choose what your weekend is and what days your weekends are.
Oh, and you don’t have to answer an alarm clock every morning unless you need to be up early so you can catch a flight to place interesting.
Keep up a good spirit and if it’s tough pretend everything is great.
Two last things:
It’s a great life if you don’t weaken
Don’t take life so seriously, it’s not you’re going to make it alive anyway.
In the end, the Soviet Empire turned out to be 91 percent Potemkin Village and 9 percent real. But it took real character and courage to blow that house down. Reagan, Thatcher, and John Paul saw some very bad times, but they didn't give up.Thanks neverdem.
Wow... what a great article. Thanks for posting it!
Timewave Zero novelty is pegging the meter.
It IS a great article. Let’s keep it bumped.
Onyx, do you have a big ping list for this? It’s a sleeper knock-it-out-of-the-park article.
