If you call that a joke I call you the laziest joke writer on the internet. Carlos Mencia would be proud.

I left my last job after 14 years and am trying my hand at starting my own. Very excited about it, but i need guinea pigs for my first marketing mailer. If you have a knack for sales and love criticizing others (constructively of course) please pm me and i will email you my current draft.
I appreciate in advance anyone who might be willing to give it a look.

I'd help if I felt like I have a knack for sales, but I don't. Good luck with it though.

When you are taking the picture, remember, this is more a "Hustler-style pose" than a "Playboy-style pose" crowd.

So start there with your photography. And like op said, we are waiting....

And for 2 years now, in addition to my Full Time job as a Gov't contractor, I am working a Part Time job in Assisted Sales of EPSON products.

While I seem to be good at selling stuff to John Q Public, there are days where I don't feel like talking to John Q Public, but I have no choice.

Was talking to my Sister who works at a school in NJ and she told me about this and I think it's great! It should be mandatory in every school in the Nation!

Acting Gov. Sheila Oliver signed a law last Thursday that mandates the state Board of Education include financial literacy instruction in the curriculum for sixth- through eighth-grade students in public schools across New Jersey.

There are WAY too many young people that have no idea how to manage their finances!

Even my wife and I had a lot to learn about home [emoji537] buying this past spring, and we are both in our 40s.

Any financial education that can be offered to young people is a good idea [emoji362]

Re: The Good News Thread
 

Common sense life education is just as important to me as the math, sciences, etc. Those are obviously important too but most students won't become accountants or doctors. I'd offer that learning how to be responsible with money is the most important life skill there is for most folks, myself included.

Let's put this to the test: Chico, would you agree with me that both policians and the media do their fair part in creating a divisive environment? Or are politicians the good guys and the media solely to blame?

I agree and I’ve always said similar things of this nature. For some reason there is this thing suddenly where disagreeing is mistaken for offending...it’s wierd.



Of course I’ve always said this: New research suggests that people are much more united in their beliefs and values than [I][B]media[/B][/I] reporting would suggest.

No surprise there..they make money trying to divide. People are realizing this, opinions are changing.

Plenty of blame to go around and sometimes you just have to ignore it . "Sometimes".;)

You know...this might be great for the understanding...because you're gonna be blown away by how many moving parts story wise in the first 3 three seasons. Usually takes me an episode to completely remember where we left off and what everyone was doing...

The number of families and groups is staggering.

Also, my biggest advice is don't get attached to characters. its a bloodbath

I just bought an original picasso sketch. He did a bazillion sketches a day and some of his original quick sketches you can get for as low as $500. It came with a COA and bought from a reputable dealer but unless it is certified by Picasso's daughter, Ill never truly know if it is in fact real.

[IMG]https://uniquesandantiques.com/wp-content/uploads/auctions/200204/406_3.jpg[/IMG]

He would do hundreds of the same sketches. Mine is almost like this (^^ this is a print not original), he kinda smugged the lips a bit and the horns are sloppier and mine he put a border type thing on it.

Sotheby's is currently doing an auction.

WOW, awesome!!! When it comes to art my taste is simple , the very traditional Americans in Norman Rockwell (an Illustrator he called himself) and Grandma Moses. Yeah it's not the level of Picasso but it's what I like. Good for you !

Re: The Good News Thread
 

My grandpa was a painter. Not as a full time job, but he was really good. Which is weird, because no one else on either side of my family, including myself, has 1 ounce of artistic ability in our bodies.
