Forget about your computer and
come to Brooklyn on Friday. I have to keep insisting because there´s so much
at stake. Life is at stake and the way we choose to lead it. You don´t
strike me as the type that leads a boring life so that´s why I think we´ll
meet soon and connect on a deep, healthy level.

As ever,
José

Not to me, since I think Bush humor is stupid in general, but I do think someone into Bush Humor might find it hilarious one time. I don't get those wierdos... and I'm not pro-Bush, at least not when it comes to politics, outside of politics, I say the more Bush the better...

So I was in a three year relationship with a guy, Indian (dot not feather), and then one night when we were getting all hot and heavy (which was also my nickname in high school) he asked me to PEE ON HIM. Where did that come from? Three years and all of a sudden... and things were going through my mind, like 'who's gonna clean it up?', 'have I had enough water?'... And it occured to me maybe he wants me to pee on him because he's Indian - turns out I was right - it's the only way to get that curry smell out!

This story is interesting from an academic standpoint, not only for the topic in question, but also because it seems to be the basis (or at least a heavy contributor) to the legend of a knight riding up on a white horse and saving the fair maiden from the evil dragon (or, as dragons became less scientifically viable, some sort of monster or evil human being). It also might be important to note that in many of the stories about serpents, a highly stressed point is the virginity of the woman or women involved. The dragon of Dilena consumes only virginal women.

Seven Signs It's Time to Toss Your Résumé

By Kate Lorenz, CareerBuilder Editor

They've reviewed millions of résumés and seen it all. From the candidate whose stated objective was to "seek a high-paying, relaxing job" to the software developer who included a photo of himself bare-chested, cavorting in the surf.

Corporate recruiters say you'd be surprised at how many candidates leave out important facts, such as the names and locations of companies where they've worked, or include too much information, like the candidate who asterisked her dates of employment with the caveat: "Please do not misconstrue the fact that I have had 12 jobs in six years as job-hopping...I have never quit a job!"

Is your résumé working for you or against you? Here are seven signs it may be time to tweak (or toss) your résumé:

1. No Career Summary/Introductory Statement
Most hiring companies don't have time to match unspecified résumés to open positions, so lead off with a career summary or introductory statement that makes it clear what type of position you are seeking and why you are qualified for the job.

2. Lack of Keywords and Phrases
To pass through a company's applicant tracking software, your résumé must contain the keywords and phrases it is screening for. These words are not the verbs stressed in paper résumés, but nouns such as job titles and technical skills.

To find out what keywords you should be using, read the job posting or obtain the actual job description. You also may want to check out the book 2,500 Keywords to Get You Hired by Jay Block and Michael Betrus, which lists critical keywords for each career and shows examples of how to use them in your résumé.

3. No Evidence of Your Experience
Your résumé should not merely list the jobs you've held; it should provide specific examples of how you achieved success. Résumé-writing professionals recommend using the PARS formula: Describe a Problem, the Action you took, the Results you achieved and Skills you applied.

4. Use of Personal Pronouns and Articles
With just two pages to sell yourself, make each word count. Write in a telegraphic style, eliminating all personal pronouns and articles like "the," "a" and "an." Removing the "I," "me" and "my" from your résumé not only frees up space, but creates a subliminal perception of objectivity.

5. Irrelevant Information
Irrelevant information keeps the reader from seeing your selling points. Weigh each portion of your experience from the hiring company's perspective to decide what to include and what to emphasize. If you're applying for an engineering position, for example, don't devote a whole paragraph to your job as a camp counselor unless the position has elements that are transferable to the engineering job. And never include information about your marital status, personal situation, hobbies or interests unless they are relevant to the job for which you're applying.

6. Poor Formatting
Unless you have no work experience or have held a number of different jobs in a short amount of time, a chronological résumé is the most effective. That means using the following order:

Header (your name, address, e-mail address and phone number)

Career summary, profiling the scope of your experience and skills

Reverse chronological employment history emphasizing achievements

Education

Since poor alignment, spacing and use of bolding and caps make a résumé hard to read, you may want to use a résumé template.

7. Typos and Misspelled Words
From the would-be administrative assistant who claimed to be a "rabid typist" to the executive who boasted that he was "instrumental in ruining the entire operation," misspellings communicate that you have poor writing skills or a lackadaisical attitude. Proofread your résumé carefully and have several friends and family members read it as well.

Last, remember that the purpose of your résumé is to communicate your experiences and accomplishments as they relate to an open position and to obtain a job interview. Because each situation is different, you should tailor your résumé to each opportunity.

He stood in front of them, breathing in deeply, so that his nostrils flared. When he exhaled he made a groaning noise at the back of his throat. All the while he maintained a wet-lipped smile and gazed at the girls.

“...There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one's head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people's pain. You ought to have some apprehension that the man you see before you was once even younger than you are now and arrived at his present wretchedness by imperceptible degrees.”

Parexel

(This is the name of the drug company that ran those tests a few months ago, the ones that ended up causing total organ failure in all the people who took them. I wanted to find out how the people were doing now so I cut and pasted the world from an article about them and put it into wikipedia. Turns out that most of them are doing fine, all but the worst one have gone home and even he is conscious and able to talk.

EDIT: Ooops, I forgot to close the brackets, here we go.)
