Employment Chatter

and i’m like, no, see, it is true, but i am self-depreciating as a reflex action
Midgar310: of course, i’ve been told that my tone of commiserative empathy sounds like i am making everything about me
Rawles: And another problem that arises, which I only realized a few years ago, is when you refuse to believe that you’re gifted, you take it for granted in a way that comes off as arrogant. Because when the professor infamous for being so tough assigns an essay test and gives the class a buck up speech before handing it back because everyone did so bad and you’re sitting there thinking, “But that was so easy,” and people ask what you got as they commisserate about their C- and you have a perfect score…it’s just awkward.

And there’s not really a graceful way out of it because the fact of the matter is no matter what you do, whether you’re quiet or matter of fact or whatever, they’re going to read it as smug and arrogant because well, you just proved that you’re a lot smarter than everyone else present.
Midgar310: i hope that you understand this is not the case
Rawles: i think that i do
Safety concerns and fresh trial data have persuaded Swiss biotech Serono to suspend two Phase III trials. One late-stage study of the tumor necrosis factor binding protein Onercept for moderate to severe psoriasis was halted after two patients in the trial were diagnosed with a blood infection. One of those patients died. Another study of Canvaxin for Stage IV melanoma was suspended after researchers determined it was unlikely to demonstrate a statistically significant improvement for patients. A separate trial of Canvaxin for Stage III melanoma will proceed.

Rawles: and i hope you understand that these two long TALES OF RAWLES’S LIFE that i’ve just typed to you are me trying to explicate on how i pretty much understand exactly what you’re saying.
Midgar310: my reputation for extreme laziness has saved me on occasions like that, and yes, i do get you exactly, i also reflexively check to make sure we are on the same page so that i do not start anything unintentionally

I have had a throbbing headache since about 5 o’clock..I have drank water today, probably not enough, I am going to grab a bottle as soon as finiahs typing. From what I gather on this diet, if you get dehydrated you can mess up your kidneys. I need that lilke a hole in my head.
Midgar310: that’s when i pass off my intellectual-ness by saying something casual like, “you just have to tell him exactly what he wants to hear” and not, “i have a 98% average in this class and none of his papers has taken me more than five hours at the library, usually while i was on shift, and then i went home and played videogames and wrote porn until i was unconcious.”

So, you know, 2008 has not been ruled out, some kind of effort. Certainly now it is questionable as to whether that effort would come under the banner of the Democratic Party. There’s no way that with the current crop of candidates who are all supporting a military action against Iran and who none of them support impeachment. They can not speak for me any longer.
An innocent man’s romanticidn’t It Hurt When You Fell From Heaven?

Is there a woman alive who would fall from these suggestions from a collection of pick-up lines?

If their top-rated suggestion does not have the desired effect, then try in one of six languages to say: “Didn’t it hurt when you fell from heaven?”
The Russians have never understood us. I have come to believe they genuinely FEAR Americans. They cannot understand our lust for freedom of thought, and action, and our willingness to take risks in order to better the generation following ours. The Russians shrink from the whole concept of opening up to the remainder of the world and becoming a part of it. Given a chance, as they had in the early 1990’s, they will always choose to shrink back into the shadows and throw up a wall, or fortress, to keep the rest of us out. And, in the case of the commies, to keep those who are “mentally imbalanced” and “tend toward western thought”, in!

So, it came as no surprised to learn this week that the Russkies have a new intercontinental ballistic missile which will, at least they say it will, penetrate our missile shield. Surprised? No! Expecting it? Yes! Event when our government offered the shield to Russia they turned it down so they could continue their lives in fear of freedom and fear that somebody, anybody, will attack and take their beloved Russia.

I have news for them. The US doesn’t want Russia. Oh, sure, we’d like to have the oil fields, but we’re not about to fight them for it. We’d rather buy it from them.

So, the “mean ole Russia” is back. In a way it is comforting. When a man reaches my age, it is somehow exhilarating to observe nations acting as we have been used to them acting. No surprises. Now, maybe, we can get back to the 2-polar world again. You know, East versus West as God intended! I mean, I became used to it. And frankly, I sorta miss it. We knew WHO our enemy was, we knew WHERE he was, and we knew how to kill him in great numbers. Beats the hell outta fighting these Islamofacists! The Russians may be paranoid, but they are NOT crazy!
Or maybe: “You must be tired because you’ve been running through my mind all day.”

Scraping in at Number 10 in the romance parade comes “The only things your email was forwarded to others for a laugh, eventually making its way into the newspapers.

All of which poses the question of how to flirt, score, start a loving relationship in an email without scaring the recipient or, alternatively, coming across as so cold as to be almost pathologically uninterested in other human beings. I frequently find new and exciting ways to make a fool of myself, especially concerning boys, and preserving such moments in written form is one of my favourite ways to do so. This flirtatious email etiquette guide is based on my own sorry experiences, with help from some equally inept friends.
Heck, from the way her platform would sound, I think she’d garner tons of support with the Democratic base and as a result, she might get as much attention as Cindy Sheehan did, except over a longer period of time, and the entire country could really get an up close and personal look at how far the left has fallen over the cliff. She’s also got friends in low places with a few credibility issues, like noted Socialism-lover

Politics is changing in Europe and none more so than in Spain. With European nationals able to vote in a country in which they are legally registered, Spanish parties are having to amend their campaign tactics. Now they must seek votes from non Spaniards who in many cases have a totally different outlook on politics in general and on how their town should be run. The wind of change is blowing in the Spanish political arena.
