I'd do it. Makes perfect sense.
The only thing you have to worry about is people stealing your head and using it in inappropriate ways. Though that may not be bad, just think about it, you'd be famous on the internet. You could rule the interweb from the inside!
Congrats Distruktor, just remember marriage is what you make of it. Just get nice and loaded tonight.
See, Suri's poop was supposed to star in Mission Impossible 4 followed by one of her farts in a cameo in next summer's box office smash First Daughter 2 ... but Tom and Katie are very competitive and hey man, you gotta do what you gotta do in hollywood people.
It's partly the scientology thing I think. The other part, I think he's just naturally a huge DORK that was born in a really hot bod.
I wouldn't read too much into this......
....maybe he just really, really likes poo......
EC was on a roll this week.
you know you would like it if I did some voodoo on ann coulter, come on now. can't you just see her on hannity and colmes? hahaha I can picture it in my head, her arms flailing around and her face twitching and maybe I'd make her do an irish jig or something.
I really like bonsais. I bought a bonsai just before last Christmas. It went brown almost straight away but I kept watering it hoping it would go green again. Since I was living in an apartment, I really didn't have any outside space for it, so I kept in under good light by a window.
I emailed a bonsai expert a few months ago about the leaves being brown and they said that if the leaves were brown then it was dead...I'd been watering a dead bonsai for the last 10 months!
Maybe you are better off with a plastic bonsai??
But...
Wouldn't being killed in a motorcycle accident mess you up pretty badly? Not that having sex with a non-mangled corpse would be any less sick, but...
Ick. Just ick.
Ick.

I'd surely rather get drive-by pissed than shot. Shooting trauma is no fun. While a proper golden shower administered by chiquita-gangstas driving a low-rider Chevy can be an important part of a lovely afternoon around the pool...
Personally I think it's more the Salmons attitude then his mood. He's like, if I am a premium salmon, how come they are feeding me to fricking dogs? I'm worthy of being fed to Newfies or West Coast folk! No offense to anyone on the west or east coast, its just as far as I know people out here in Alberta don't eat fish. Specially with all of these extra cows roaming around these days.
Thanks for being picky guys, if it weren't for you guys pointing these things out I'd be lost. Originally I was planning on just scanning one of those goldfish crackers and using that for my fish but the damn things kept getting crunched on the scanner bed.
What if a dog was holding that fish in his mouth? That way he'd have a reason to be sad. Other than the whole being ground up into dog food bit.
Just a thought.

In house or prepress? I wish.
It's a print shop, but I'm going to be doing sales. I might get to do some basic design or back up prepress with overflow work, at least for now.
The shop is an hour away, but I may be able to work my own area a few days a week, so that will help save on gas.
Like I said, it's not my "dream job", but they seem like good people, and at least it's still in the field of printing.
The boss is a great guy, he said that I can offer my graphic design services to customers who need them and handle that all on my own... he encourages his employees to have their own businesses, so at least it should be a good opportunity for networking.

Maybe if you put it under a black light. ;)
But congrats to you. I always find the best sales people actually care about their product, and just want you to like it as much as they do, they're boarder line product geek. Those are the people I love to talk to. The sale is just like a bonus for them working. On the otherhand is the schmoozeballs. Slick hair, pressed shirt, too much cologne, all image, can't get them back into thier Miatas fast enough.
Oh, so what I was saying is being genuine works.
The thermography really helps out, it give the ink a little bit of a shine ... in low light conditions you can always run your fingers over the card and try to read the letters like braille.

I'm tired of these people promising customers all kinds of ridiculous crap.You don't need to know anything to be in sales. Just say "Yeah, we can do that! Sure, no problem!" Then, get on the phone real quick, and tell the people back at the office, "I told them we can do that. Can we do that? Well, we have to do that, or we'll all lose our jobs when we lose the sale, because I told them we can do that!" Then, everyone else can work horrible hours trying to meet the impossible deadline you've set, while you're out at a nice restaurant or on the golf course telling the next bunch of people, "Yeah, we can do that!"
That seems to be what every sales person has done at any company I've ever worked for, anyway. Not that I'm bitter, or anything.

Thanks Kittie. Nothing like enjoying cultural events especially of the performing art. At first I didnt want to go, I thought "aw man, a chick thing, bleah" but I thought.. well my wife wanted to when they first advertised it. I knew if I said no, there would be a life long mental scar, not only for her but for me, because she probably would have reminded me lol. So I just said what the hell, I havent been to a theater play in 15 years. This show turned out really good. (sold out of course, had to reserve the tickets 3 weeks in advance)
The performers just really got you into the show. The stage was a center stage play, not like a normal auditorium. They had split scenes all around you, not only in the center, but above the cast curtain areas. The special effects for the play where outstanding. the scenes had good continuation to it.
My wife loved it. My opinion? It was above way above what I was expecting. Would I go again? Yes, because it was that good. We want to see a show during christmas "The Christmas Carol" BUT you have to reserve tickets almost 3 years in advanced (I HATE reservations). They only show a certain show for like a month, then change, if the show did good the theater will reshow it in 3-4 years. If not, it will reshow in 7.
