Good luck to both of you on this one.

I’ll have to remember that. I really ought to brush up on my Spanish before I make a trip like that.

Thanks for the tip!

Every so often I get an email from some kind of agency that found my resume on Monster and they want to tell me about a job opportunity that they think I should apply for. Usually it’s nothing I’m interested in, but today there was a position that sounded good; so I send in my resume and they got back to me within a few minutes. I get a call from them saying they showed my resume to the ‘hiring mangaer’ and they want to talk to me.

Then I call, and the guy not only sounds like English is not his first language, but he seems to know nothing about my resume. He asks me where I am currently working… um look at the resume you say you showed to the “hiring manager” its on there dude. Where do these companies come from? they are sending me info on jobs in MA and they aren’t even in the same state as I am, and he asks me 3 times if I am in MA. Why would I apply for a job in MA unless I lived there or was willing to travel???

Oh well… another reason to start your own business. Trying to find a job has become some kind of stupid game.

I’m sticking around 415 miles a tank now, not too shabby. I think after I (finally) get an oil change and put in a new air filter I may see an improvement.

I just saw $3.88 a gallon! I hope it keeps going down this is good news. I was afraid I would be paying $4.50 a gallon for heating oil all winter but maybe that will go down too. Although with gas people will drive less when prices are high, demand goes down so the price drops. I doubt anyone will stop heating their house because of high oil prices. :-)

I’ve always wanted to go there for the day of the dead festival. I’ve never been there before though.

Wow, you Super clean your bedroom, huh? Sounds good. I should start doing that!

I saw the preview on some other Disney DVD I have. He’s some kind of robot / trash compactor that finds another calling of some kind.

It looks good to me.
