the old curricula vitai
not even sure I spelled that right, why can't they call it something like "expanded pain in the rear resume that I doubt anyone reads!" maybe too long....
any way I am currently writing my CV, to start applying for jobs. I will do a blanket approach and apply any where I have an address for! so if you get one in the mail and you don't have a job opening, pass it on.
still trying to finish by May, not sure though. Some things have to happen and I have to figure out a model for my project.
Glad to be an american
A guy I know from college wrote this on my facebook wall in response to my saying that I was grateful that I got to vote, I thought it was really good perspective.

And without any riots, coups, and insurrections. It always amazes me how we take the transition of power for granted here when you look at the difficulties other countries have in doing so peacefully.
Sure you'll have loons that claim BUSHITLER is going to suspend the Constitution with the Patriot Act and become dictator for life, but they are an insignificant minority. Almost the entirety of the populace just takes for granted the fact that a transition from one leader to another will be peaceful and that the newly elected President, whether from our party or not, is _our_ President.
As I thought last night while watching the Obama speech... I'm awfully proud that once again America puts paid to the lie that we are a racist country, but d*** I wish we would've elected someone that agrees with me. ;)
Really true, my guy lost but I am grateful for the chance to vote and disagree. I voted now for the next four years I will disagree. :) but that is different than complaining. I have a right to complain and disagree, but complaining won't help this country.
One commentator posed an interesting question, if they would have tied then the congress would have voted with Cheney giving the last vote, and he thought it would be Obama with Palin as VP. That would be an interesting team, the fights they would have. She would have to get out her gun.
Wee America
for my democratic family members you may not want to read this since it will probably make you mad at me and cause me to lose out on christmas presents.
Well the guy I voted against won, I am really afraid for our country but more than that I am proud of it. Angie has a friend from China that Angie was able to share with about voting and electing our leaders, made us proud that we get to vote and be a part of what direction our nation takes. I really do wish Obama the best because now he is the leader of my nation.
Matt and I were discussing that we will probably have to go back to school again since there will be no jobs out there and welfare will pay well!
Here are some predictions that I really hope that I am wrong about:
If we show a weak hand in world affairs North Korea will attack South Korea, China will finally take over Taiwan that they have been eyeing for the last 50 years. Israel will be attacked by Iran and Russia (but they will hold their own).
If the tax rates go into effect we will see double digit unemployment and inflation.
Plans are underway for the government to take over our 401k's at a pre August level with a proposed 3% return and replace it with social security.
The deficit will continue to rise (this would have happened under McCain as well)
Again I hope I am wrong. We shall see, good news is that the campaign is over and people can take down all their signs. I would be happy to say I was wrong about all this if Obama turns out to be a good leader, I don't envy him right now I think anyone who wants to be president is nuts.
If the next 4 years are bad... well then Hello Madam President Palin!
