Looks like I'll put in under 30 hours this week. Oh, well. I wish thing would pick up. At least I have my foot in the door when things do pick up.

These are the times. This my 53rd week (part time). Before that I was on the hunt for eight months. Tough in an area under 70,000 pop.

If it means anything to anyone...Agricultural industry has been very good to my family over the past few generations, and continues to. Will always be around too...

Life is tough. The sooner you realize that, the easier it will be.

Ok, one of you Brit types are going to have to explain this to me. Since I get my news from the BBC, at least five times I've seen articles about the manager of Celtic get threatened (or in the latest incident, hit on the sideline). What's the story behind that? Seems his own club's fans hate him. Cause he's Irish? What? [&:]

its sectarian - celtic are mainly seen as a catholic club, and rangers are mainly understood to be a protestant club, hence i think its now actually illegal for rangers players to pretend to play the pipes of an orange victory march when they score (like gazza did) - a few years back he received death threats for playing for Southern Ireland and i think it ended his international career - now i think he has been seen as being disrespectful to rangers, the scottish game and the fans and he gets a bomb in a box for his trouble - this is of course my understanding of the situation - not necessarily right - i dont actually know if its Protestant rangers fans or disgruntled Celtic fans

I see now hes Northern Irish which would better explain why the Catholic/Southern Irish Celtic fans dont like him much

It seems to be Celtic fans, which is why I'm puzzled.

I guess there are a few Swedes on the Wings, huh? [:D]

Personally, I always root against the Red Wings, just like the Yankees in Baseball. I like the Sharks, but picked and have been rooting for the Canucks since the beginning of the playoffs. I'd like to see a Tampa Bay/Vancouver finals, with Vancouver winning Lord Stanley's Cup. [:)]
