Now, If You Don't Mind My Doing So, I Will Give You the Finger
Man: I noticed you're reading The Kite Runner. How is it, if you don't mind my asking?
Woman: Why would I mind if you ask me how the book is? You're just trying to sound extra polite, and it's annoying. Are you from the Midwest?
Man: Actually, I'm from Pennsylvania.
Woman: Even worse.

needles to say, i turned them down
i met with a headhunting agency about two weeks ago. at the meeting, they tried to convince me that the whole bear stearns thing wasn't a big deal and finance is a very healthy industry right now.
today, they called and offered a "great compliance representative position at a GREAT company. starting at $40K!"
i have a MASTERS DEGREE. in PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION. and you want me to start at $40K in a struggling industry. thanks for the help! ass.

hey portishead, i love you and your new album
my love affair with portishead started in high school when i bought dummy. i think stuart can attest to how much i listened to portishead back then. (all the time?) so, to say that i've been waiting a while for their third album is a bit of an understatement.
but it is AMAZING and well worth the wait. i was nervous that it would be lame and tame like the beth gibbons solo album. but it's really edgy and beautiful.
my experience with portishead is that it's not the first listen, but the second and third and fourth where i really start loving the tracks. i've entered the love stage. "the rip" is really standing out for me. it may be my favorite. "machine gun" is very terminator to me, but a good pick for their single. ahhhhhhhh xoxoxox portishead
