Bill Clinton visits Fort Wayne. His Pinocchio nose was on time, but he was 15 minutes late! I, state your lie, do solemnly swear to lie about the truth, conjure up a whole new truth, so help me fraud. Wow, and to think that many of his supporters will be aching with a St. Patrick's Day hangover, surprisingly ironic since Clinton likes green (as money is green).
I am looking forward to your dedicated and blind voting this election for my wife and all my fellow asses, er, I mean democrats so that we can win big this Fall. I'm keen on getting to the White House again, without all the stuff like 'work' to be done. I can more fully dedicate my time to helping young intern minds and bodies grow to their natural potential.
Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

be still, my wallet

crazy aside
I did get fired from my job. The exit interview, a bad idea in my opinion, went like. You are [gruff] when approached. That was correct, as my team leader made every day like a Rob Zombie roller coaster without the pleasant end of the ride. Instead, I'm sure there was either a perpetual loop or simple a section of incomplete track leading to "my" end. Anyway, I could have told the third person in charge who conducted the interview this, but ...
my team leader was in the room with me. So, I can't berate that person in front of her, making any headway. Even though I will not use this short-lived job as a reference, I don't want to burn any bridges. Making enemies is a bad policy. So, I have been submitting electronic resume's again.
I'm not sore about it. The days were long and unpleasant, I didn't get fired unreasonably, and so there is no bad blood. They didn't think I would pan out, making that decision before the 90 day period. Technically, I was hoping to be transfered to another team to do a better job -- not having the stress of the team leader there.

I hate to pick on the poor place, but ...
Creation Museum? OK, that's an odd idea. When you get through looking at the YouTube videos on the place, then examine the prices, I think the place will admission fee itself out of existence. If you didn't know about this Flunktucky place, then goto YouTube and watch. Most interesting is the haphazard inclusion of dinosaurs in the garden of Eden with Adam and Eve, also using a Earth's life of ~6,000 years old. That's a really tough sell. It was a bad investment for those people who made the investment.
Please compare prices:
Creation Museum:
- Adult (13-59 yrs): $19.95
- Senior (60 yrs & up): $14.95
- Children (5-12 yrs): $9.95
- Children (under 5 yrs): Free
- Planetarium with admission: $7
Youth (ages 2-17) | $8.50 | ||
Adult (ages 18-59) | $13.50 | ||
Senior (60+) | $12.50 |
Children's Museum of Chicago:
Children | $9.00 |
Adults | $9.00 |
Seniors | $8.00 |
CCM Members | Free |
Children under one | Free |
--------
If I were planning a trip to see a museum, I know Chicago is really neat, however a hassle to navigate, Indy is easier. Both are cheaper.

So, at work ...
They brought me into an office at 4:30 ...
I played the part of Mr. Kenny.
I didn't have a good attitude about work. That, actually wasn't accurate, I didn't mind my job, but rather my team leader. Since I "didn't like my job", they felt it was best if they let me go within the 90 period. So ... here I am. Yes, I'm disappointed with the change, but I am now stressed in a different manner, not the stress I had at work.
