What do you do for a living?
September 24, 2011 at 12:25 pm
I'd like to know what you all do.

I am a student, again. I used to be an electrician.

And you?

I guess I'm mostly a volunteer. Trying to help small local farms compete with the big boys. Change the way we grow food and all of that. Every now and again I turn a little coin with related projects.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I am a student, and I'm currently in between jobs. I used to work for my old college's theatre department, now I've transferred and I'm currently helping around the house.

Breathe ^_^

The Doctor: Yes, gifts. Um - I give you in return... air from my lungs.
[softly blows air towards her face]
Jabe: [breathing in] How... intimate.
The Doctor: There's more where that came from.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

I'm a student pilot, just about to start a new job that involves carrying goods on and off vans and the construction of sheds and fences. Was a lumberjack but moved on to other work with greater potential.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
