Well, it wasn't all bad. I found what I think may be my calling in life (God help me), and I'm not dead yet so I'd say things are looking up.

You could make that into a funny film, you should do and see what happens.

I used to work for the railroad. Moving to Walmart after the furlough was a major pay cut but it should cover my bills until I find something better. The nice thing is that I can go back to my old job wiithout reapplying whenever they call me back, and my seniority and benefits remain intact, plus I get 130 days of furlough compensation each year and I don't have to pay social security.

However, I'm afraid that I don't have the talent or the will to even attempt a screenplay. If anyone here wants to try it, be my guest. I hereby waive all intellectual property and associatiative rights.

Glad you're okay for the time being, and glad to hear the roommate situation has calmed down somewhat.

Thanks, Steve. It's good to be back with you and the rest of the crew on subsim(Jason, Chad, John, Marc, Jim, Grant, everyone.......thanks for stopping in)
