Any Job, Any Major

I am going to get some payroll training today from an account admin from Orlando. I already know how to use the PTE system, but it'd be nice to know some of the actual rules behind it, and I am also going to get some payroll website training. Which honestly this system has been a mystery to me. So I gotta get some notepaper and a fresh pencil.

My other website is here by the way. Its now devoted to pictures and writings. This is the place thats gonna a be a whats hip, whats up and whats goin on kind thing.

The first person I ever knew that blogged. I didn't know her actually, but she always had a llot of cool links.

Another day

Another day at the factory. Miles is asleep on the couch. I need to shower and find some food to eat. I just thought I'd breath new life into this blog. Blog this blog that. I think Xanga will be my story and pictue blog, while this will remain a living diary and relevant news forum. We'll see how it goes. UPS just called and they need me to come in early.. .. shower ... called em back, and they don't need me afterall. At least I am showered and ready to go now.

Xanga is broken

yo yo yo! Xanga was up for a while, but it fell down again I guess. ... since I was a kid whenever I get money it burns a hole in my pocket and I just gotta spend it! I think I have too much free time. maybe if I worked more I'd have less time to think of shit to buy. So I should look for another job? maybe.. but where? I was thinking some awesome book store that served me free coffee. That'd be payment almost by itself. Jesus I love coffee. Who knew Gina Gershon could sing? This is a free for all, no paragraph breaks, or anything like that okay? I have been wanting a smaller digital camera, something I could take to work and basically everywhere, I also want way to access the internet from anywhere with my laptop. .. there is a new LG phone with these capabilities.. $200... I gotta get a new job or some shit. There is a "The Job" DVD? wholly shite! gotta get me some a dat. I was wondering what happened to Scott. Seems he's in Orlando now with some business of his own. Have to see what the dilly is. I miss Xanga, but it gets this site updated doesn't it?

so very very long

It's been so long since I posted anything on this website. I mostly use my Xanga site now. I am posting here because I feel the need to post, and Xanga is down , has been for the last 2 days. I miss that little community.

Well I see since last time I've found a job. In fact it's been over a year, almost 2! Jobs are all pretty much the same for me. I work and work and work, and everything always ends the same with me working and being bored. I'd like to have 5 jobs and work one day a week at each. Why can't my dream come true?

Nothing new to really report. I need to find a job .. quick like.. Going out tomorrow to look. ... Later this week I am going to try and conquer the public bus system. I think it will be a good thing to have a little knowledge about. Incase someday I ever have to use it. I always see cool people riding on the bus. I see em .. yeah.. I wanna be one of them okay? I think its cool to use the public transportation system! I think its cool to save money and save gas and save the planet! I think all that stuff is cool. And lets face it.. its the punk thing to do. Not that I am a punk mind you. just sayin..

I found a old photo album a minute or so ago. It has old pictures of me and friends and old childhood photos. I sure have changed over the years. Its funny sometimes to look back at those old pictures and see all the people that aren't in my life anymore, all the ones that have dissappeared. Its odd how people come in and out of my life, where did all my best friends go? Where have all those people even the ones I didn't like all that well... where have they gone too? Its not funny, its sad really... oh well.. I guess for ever person I loose, I get a couple new ones... or at least thats how its supposed to go. I don't even remember alot of the time that I spent with them until I pull out those pictures and take a peek.

Things like this only go to reenforce my general ideals about certain things..

The American Red Cross collected hundreds of thousands of blood donations after Sept. 11 knowing that the blood could not be used for victims of the terrorist attacks.
After selling some of the surplus blood to hospitals, the Red Cross has begun to destroy thousands of pints that have outlasted their shelf life. Directors of several Red Cross blood centers said their sites may discard as many as 1 of every 5 donations and the national total could easily reach tens of thousands.
The charitable outpouring offered an opportunity for the $2.5 billion-a-year organization to restock its depleted blood inventory. Although the Red Cross told the public that surplus blood would be frozen, it did not have the resources to freeze large amounts of excess blood, according to documents and interviews.
The Red Cross, which is the nation's largest blood supplier, declined to answer questions about how much extra blood was collected. Spokesmen said the Red Cross kept collecting blood because it did not want to turn away donors and hoped to create a reserve in case of more terrorist attacks. They noted that every blood donation yields some lifesaving byproduct, such as plasma.
The nonprofit Red Cross collects more than 6 million pints of blood annually and earns about $1.5 billion, or 60 percent of its revenue, by selling donated red cells, platelets and plasma to hospitals for more than $225 a unit.
The Red Cross estimated that less than 10 percent of the donations will be discarded, but some of its blood-bank directors disputed that. They said the Red Cross collected at least 250,000 and perhaps as much as 400,000 extra pints in the month after the attack.

I like the last part... "He was terrified, just terrified."


Would you tell someone that their fly is open? Michael Gelman had to do just that during "Live with Regis and Kelly" on Wednesday's show. Gelman told Regis after an interview with Tony Bennett. Then on Thursday's show, Kelly took several jabs at Regis when they discussed the incident. "In all honesty, I never looked down there, but now I will," Kelly asked how she should let him know, adding that she thought they should have a code. "The chicken is out of the pot!" she said she would say or "The Fighting Irish is out of the Field." Kelly told her co-host that the fly being down made her day because he's always so well groomed. Although it was all in fun, Regis said that he didn't want to talk about it anymore, but he said that he will never forget the look on Gelman's face. "He was terrified, just terrified."

'Gifted' children often become troubled adults


Intelligent children who are told they are gifted are more likely to have emotional problems than bright ones told nothing.

A survey has revealed that 40% of them had difficulty forming relationships in later life and normally ended up in mundane jobs.

The findings were made after both types of children and a randomly selected group were compared between the ages of 14 and 27.

None of those in the other groups had any such problems.

It was found many parents who encourage their children to believe they are gifted discourage them from having relationships with youngsters they believe are not good enough.

This leads to boredom at school and an attitude which persists through life,

Drugs aren't so bad. It's the addiction that is bad. So shouldn't it be "The war on Addiction". I am addicted to lots of things. Like coffee, tea, music, money, driving fast, being bad, not cleaning up my room, internet, work, sleep, air, information, knowledge, and the ladies. So shouldn't there be a war on this stuff as well?
