I will be going to Harrah's most likely next week

If Harrah's calls, let me know. I will show you how to ace the pannel interview.

Meanwhile, all my fish in Fishville, Happy Aquarium and Fish World will probably die before i can even get back into Facebook. Facebook doesn't let you sign on with borrowed computers. Although it's a good thing in many respects, right now it sucks. I guess i will sign on in my husbands name and tell them what happened. It's just my family in there and people ive known for 7 years or more. Maybe they can revive some of my poor innocent dead virtual fish for me.
Hopefully i will get my computer back soon, along with all my email piling up as well. And be back in here to bug you all more frequently. I would say to email me, but i can't get in there right now, well, the web based ones i can, but not my main one. But i sense i am going to be kicked off here soon, since the master has to shoot zombies and things like he does every night. He gives me a measly 20 mins out of the entire day. I hope to return the favor to him if his computer dies off. I will give him 10 minutes.

Talk at you all later. Be good.

If not, how about a huge virtual fish fry.

In this day and age with the large amount of unemployed one has to be aggressive in looking for a job. It's just a matter of numbers, the more positions you interview for the more chance you have to find employment. Problem is not everyone has that determined streak that's required to go out there and be aggressive. It's a shame but the nice gentle folk get pushed aside by the A+ personalities. Another thing is if you have been employed in one job for a long time it's hard to start looking again. I hate to say it but I feel that the fighters will survive in this economy.

Have you looked on any of the hospital websites at their job postings? There are many jobs in hospitals that do not require a degree and they tend to be pretty stable, good paying jobs. Food service and environmental service jobs pay more than minimum wage and the full time ones have benefits. There'd be both part time and full time jobs that would allow you to pursue casino jobs if that's your dream. I know that St. Rose Dominican Hospitals have three facilities in LV/Henderson, so that would be a good place to start.

Looks like it was a "hit job"

Another tragedy here: 5 people will be going to prison here, and at a cost of $40-50,000 a year per inmate, this is something this state can ill-afford, more inmates sucking the money out of our wallets.

What a greedy idiot! When a spouse is killed, whatever the case, history proves it, 80% of the time another spouse was involved. The odds of her pulling this off? 20%!

One more tragedy: those 4 kids, now without a mother or father, who may also become dependent on the state.

A very expensive tragedy for a state that can ill-afford this!

I am reminded of Blanche DuBois in A Streetcar Named Desire.
"I've always depended on the kindness of strangers."

Seriously, Aqualung is not here to defend himself and all this talk about him needs to cease. I try to continue to stay away from this forum since all of the members here are the mark of the devil 666, but I have to defend my one true friend here (I hate all of you others). Leave him alone and let him recover, ok? All of you should truly be ashamed of yourselves for putting down Aqualung. I would like to see how you would all do being 45 years old at 350 pounds with no vehicle trying to get a job. Yeah, you all have a special place waiting for you in you know where for your cruel comments to him.

and now for a happy time......i wish this would happen here
