When I went to the hospital this morning it was 19F degrees outside. Damn that's cold. My mom said down in TX it's still below freezing there too. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

I am battling strep right now. I guess I should stop jogging when it's cold+damp out. This is the worst case I have ever had. I don't know what is worse... the chills or the feeling like I am in a chockhold and can barely brethe. Went to the hospital at 4 in the morning and got some penecillin tabs.... which should start an improvement in SIX DAYS.... UGH! Six days?!?!? Why didn't they give me a Z-pack or at least some percodan so I wouldn't be in such misery? ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

OMG This is a NAUGHTY thread... worse than full nudity!

It's no big deal. I'm a programmer and I also do I/T architecture. 90% of the offers I get are from headhunters who are trying to put a body with a client and don't really know much about the client, what they do, or what exactly they want, etc. Only because I have skills that match what an employer is looking for doesn't mean I want to work for that employer or their industry. I mean.. I know VB... but does that mean I want to feed and clothe myself on VB code? I'm mostly relegated to healthcare and insurance companies because their business software is extremely complex and I like big projects. I can't pay my $1,085/month rent creating websites. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Get your mind out of the gutter (so mine can roll by!) ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

heh... I was just in the middle of making DDL changes to a 10 terabyte DB/2 database and got a call on my cell phone with no caller ID. I figured it was my boss and we're on favorable terms... so I answer the phone in my standard greeting: "WHATTTT????!?!?!?" Turns out it was a recruiter in New York. Ooops! ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

The one in SAtown is pretty good, but like most San Antonio nightlife... Fri and Sat are the only days to really go out. Everybody down there works like a dog so the nightlife is usually dead except for those two days. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Guz they make you look hot when they're hot and poking your wet tshirt. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

If you know her dimensions VERY well (and only one way to know that ) buy her a glassy black leather jumpsuit. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

This standard seems to work, even though there are some hidden factoids about what people "really" do out there... I saw an expose on Frontline about the porn industry. People in Utah buy a LOT of porn, per capital more than any other state. Now we know what they really do out there! ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

And now that you've done LA, you can hop over here and go clubbing with the East Coast playahs. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

9 or 10 TANDEMS? OMG she's ready for AFF more than she'll ever be! Put her in AFF now! That's so cool your mom is on DZ.com! HI MOM! ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Once I've been there, I can always go back again. Oh, yes I can No matter how long I've been gone, I can always get back in. Oh, yes I can Couse you know I feel, And you know my love is real And if I asked you to give me your lovin' I know you will Cause once I've been there, I can always go back again. Oh, yes I can Once I make sweet love to ya baby I'm gonna always be your man yes I will baby And you'll always be my sweet baby No matter how many times you leave But I'm hooked on your lovin' And you're hooked on me Once I've been there, I can always go back again. Oh, yes I can, yeah...

OK. I fixed the problem. Had to turn off one of my three firewalls. You can download the song now Skip to 1:10 ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Dammit... does someone have a space for a 7MB file? ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Does the download work? I'm not sure if I set my firewall right. If it don't work someone willing to host the file? ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Excuses excuses. Mine is my broken shoulder. Can't even do one jumping jack and it comes out of socket. Oh well I found this song to cheer me up. Skip to 1:10 and listen to the lyrics.

I think the quote I've heard is Uptight Bastard. But I'm more fond of Rat Bastard myself. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Obviously if you're applying for something in Legal, a suit is required on the interview. It's just expected. Since it's healthcare we're talking about, a suit isn't that important; just like you wouldn't expect to be going to a formal cocktail party if you're applying for an IT position. I've screened candidates before when adding people onto my programming teams and I've ALWAYS been suspicious of guys in suits. I don't know why but it just bugs me... like they are hiding something. And in my case, it doesn't matter really what you are wearing. When I was asked to screen candidates for the boss (she would never make time for it) I just kept a legal pad in my desk full of questions and notes I typically ask and I may look up at the individual I'm interviewing a few times because I concentrating on what he/she is saying, not what they look like. Some things I've done when interviewing people (that they don't notice): - Watch how many "pause words" they use in their speech. (Uuuuugh, yeah, ooooohh, okaaaay, etc) - Look to see if they are trying to answer a question the way you want the question to be answered, or if they're being truthful about their knowledge and skills. (I'm sneaky I have several ways of identifying the kiss-up

Ugh it's 45- something and the rain-fog is pretty thick now. I can only see a block away before it turns to grey. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Ordering a drink at a bar and they don't know how to mix it. or they lie when they say they know what "Liquid Cocaine" is and you wind up with caca. I dread getting on the bus and having a "Miss Thing" get on board, yapping on her phone, every other phrase out of her mouth is "GURRL WhZap... OH NO HE DI'IINT" (although sometimes its entertaining) I have a habit of living close to hospitals (I don't know why). But if the street is free and clear of cars... WHY the fuck do you have to run your siren and wake people up? ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

OK. It's pouring rainfog in Center City and I am waiting to 6:00 so I can go out. Here's some pointers to live by: Never take life too seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway. Life is sexually transmitted. Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks. Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing. Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism. Why does a slight tax increase cost you two hundred dollars and a substantial tax cut saves you thirty cents? In the 60's people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.
