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!

Just busy with life and stuff. I finished my MCSA training and I'm now trying to find a job in networking. I'm tired of being unemployed. The big plan, if nothing goes wrong is find a job, get some work experience, then apply for a visa to Canada and move in with my girlfriend there. Got a job interview today, so wish me luck. :)

So, you've decided to settle in up here?

Best of luck with the interview and job search.

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!

When it comes to cheesy 80s videos, Danish Ned Flanders lookalike Tommy Seebach is my goto guy.

This is VERY bad.

Superhero Violin Rap?

You have what looks like Joey Buttafuco in a superhero costume rapping with a Lamar lookalike from Revenge of the Nerds then it turns into something strange..

Righteous, I just told my bosses exactly where they can get off, by expediently reading my letter of resignation to the entire office at max volume.  We had another near miss at the lab while running testing in the chemistry loop and I'm pissed about it. Not exactly a career winning move there, but it needed to be said.  I may be joining you in the job hunt thing on Monday.

I tried "Find Solwyn" and felt lucky enough to go to ...

My name isn't "from" anything I made it up back when I played EQ1 in junior high, and I see it more and more often. Wonder if it was cryptomnesia or if a lot of people just stumbled upon the same random letters.

Uhhh..."Find Hoopy Frood" leads to a spammed thread on the College Dating Guide Forum. I'm not going to link it here, since the first page of the thread (the search actually pops you to the second page which just has spam posts) has links of questionable contact.

If you really want to see it, the exercise is left up to the reader.

Hmm. I was browsing around youtube for old Not the nine o' clock news clips, and after seeing this one immediately thought about this thread.
