Yeah, I've noticed that. I won't be posting on either of the PP boards anymore unless I find it again... and that will be FUN. BBMTN won't be getting his "answers" from me, and I just had lunch with Rob on Tuesday and it doesn't sound like he'll be getting his "answers" from Rob as well.

and since its unlikely that he'll get his answers from ma press, well, he can just sit and steam.

I'm curious. Who is BBMTN? I mean I don't want his name. But, is he a young kid? Delusional? Old man? Why is he disgruntled? Does he really feel like Jake is in cahoots with the PP? Is he going to bring an automatic weapon to the pre-dig? (I say that jokingly).

We know little about him, except for the fact that he is gay, in his late 20's, loves American Idol, and lives in Eagan. I've got a good, reliable source that I'm saving for any potential rainstorm that might occur in the future.

I think she is just really hurt. Somehow she didn't feel included in our bundle of fun and is resentful. I've met people who really want to feel accepted into the CC and have their voices heard. When they aren't, for whatever reason (maybe they are stupid, maybe they are annoying, maybe we're all just too preoccupied to chat), they grow to hate us.

Had a 1911 45 but I sold that to my Brother so i could get the AK 47

Damn, I would love an old 45, an AK is a little outside my needs.

A proper 1911 is a joy to shoot. Twas a shame our NATO allies convinced us to go to 9mm for interchangability of ammo. The only branch of service that currently uses the 1911 is the Marine Corps. That's because they're the people who need small arms to go bang every time. And they are first there anyway--no one to switch ammo with at that point.

Mind you, white box Winchester 9mm is a heck of a lot cheaper to spend the day punching holes in paper.

I am supposed to start my contract job Monday, but have hit what may be an impasse in the contract.

While the hiring manager never mentioned start-up costs I would be expected to bear (and we did discuss costs and reimbursements in our verbal agreement - this is as much a surprise to her as to me), they now want me to agree to fund things that could significantly diminish my compensation. Unfortunately, a hard-ass HR person got Legal involved and they are taking a hard line on all the contract language. I am usually a good negotiator, but feel like I am coming up against a hard, cold wall of steel here.

I should know more today about whether this job is going to fly, but meanwhile, if anyone is hiring technical writers, or clinical research people, please let me know! Thanks!

Sucks that I moved here to take this job. But I do want to be here, so I guess I just have to accept that I may be pounding the pavement starting next week.

I don't mind being called MD - seriously!

My extent of participation in the PP boards is creating a 'Clues and nothing but the Clues' thread which I proceed to lock out instantly after every clue typed in to prevent riff-raff from side input. I think the thread I did last year was #3 or #4 overall for most times viewed.

I have decided to not post on the crazy board anymore as it will be a never ending battle trying to defend myself and Jake about how we supposedly cheated.

Saying that, I really hope a CC member finds it this year again. That would be rocket fuel to the fire over there.

The only way Neck will find it is if the Chimpanzee tells him where it is again.

OK, game on again. Before I had a chance to e-mail my new boss, she went to bat for me and got the objectionable stuff knocked out of the contract. Now she will get it signed by their VP, and once that is done we will know my start date - should be next week sometime, but won't be Monday.
