Wow, so being in a home, you really get hit up by the door to door folk. The girl scout cookies are good, and I feel like I need to support the boy scouts as well, but I just want to punch all the magazine salesmen.

Magazine salesmen actually exist? What a shit job. I know the $$$ sitch sounds bad Shawn, but you should have subscribed to a magazine to help the sap out. Am I right, Dan?

I'm not sure if they're "salesmen" because they all talk to you about how they are working on their interpersonal skills and this wonderful trip to Jamaca (or other Caribean island) that they can win if they sell the most subscriptions... Personally I think some communications prof. at the local community college has a scam going.

I'm actually not terribly concerened about the monies. Kids just cost a lot and the 401k is alright so no worries.

Anyhoo you under johhnyred or 6gun over on mySpace? I'm under zebano@yahoo.com but I rather despise the site (FUGLY). Perhaps it wouldn't grate so bad if I try and customize it a little..

Johnny6gun and it is a scam. I remember back in the college days I attended a recruitment meeting for a similar program that sold educational materials door-to-door to stupid parents with dumber childrens. I was pissed that it was not a valid internship or job opportunity as I had been informed via phone, so I sat through the whole thing just to bitch at the people and try to figure out how they got my name/number. That and I needed something to do.

I guess I prefer the myspace due to the fact that it seems more like a community than a blogging tool. I still have to find a better profile customizer, but I like what I've got.
