What should a Aztec, Mayan, Spaniard, Black, Cherokee, Apache, Dutch American pick?

you should send a complaint to the company and demand that you are hired due to them not having a complete application for you to fill out. or you can do the american thing and sue them for the same reasons.

Oh yeah... and a sex tab. (Imagines Bluecross getting excited at the prospect of being able to put sex on a tab)

I am classified as other, though West Indian descent would work just fine for me.


Me and my new found toy...

Greetings from Baghdad.

Did you ever get my post card?

'other'

That's almost insulting.

This whole race issue really bugs because... well... because it shouldn't be an issue. Not ever.

Yes I did! Thank you! =D Our mail's been on hold for 10 days due to us not having a mail key. I just got it today. Thanks! =D
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

It's a tough thing though because if you say you never want it to be an issue then it turns into a rule where it can't be an issue and you end up with that story I posted a couple of weeks ago about the DNA test no one wants to use. It *gasp* sees differences in DNA that show what race the person is. So it *gasp* recognizes that we aren't all 100% the same.

I agree with you that race shouldn't ever be an issue but I'd prefer it be a situation where we just embrace our differences and accept them as God's way of making us unique.

Oh and Carib, if that's the color of the typical building in Iraq then you need to ask for a more beige camo.   ;)

I hate being off work and this time off is starting to bug me.

On the plus side, I've interviewed for a marketing company already. I don't feel that I gave a good interview that day though. I think I had a bit of a fever so I wasn't in top form.

On the plus side, I passed the initial tests at the State office for promotions and I have a interview with Cirque du Soleil for media work.

I'd like to get the Cirque job. =) I mentioned that I saw three of their shows already and tomorrow I'll tell them about my Cirque du Soleil DVD box set that I have.

Like the British like to say.

He'll need special camo when hiding out on couches, though:

All right, I’ve been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

Right about now he's probably needing some camo thermal underwear  8)

I'm going to try and get some pottery pics up later today (Saturday). We had our first class of the quarter Friday night and I got a hand-built plate back. So I have two of those, a small platter, and 3 bowls to show. I've also got a hand-built vase on a hand-built lily pad with two frogs (from a wooden frog mold) in production. I hope I get it far enough along to show it to you. It should be fun if it gets through its initial firing.

I didn't get a lot done last quarter. I was struggling pretty badly with my sleep issues and it caused me to get kind of burned out on anything creative. I just wasn't awake enough to care.  :P  The good news though is that I've been feeling better sleep-wise so hopefully I can crank some stuff out this quarter. I haven't actually thrown anything on the wheel in a couple of months though.  :stunned:

PS - Grats on the job Pip!  8)
