By the way, your picture is waaaay too big for your blog post width. It overlaps your columns. You should resize it down to about 450-500px width. Just a thought.

Great picture of you, btw. Chatin’ it up, bunker style.

In the end, though, the joke’s on them because people who live in fear never really live. Actually, Bdog2g2 submitted a really good article about that this week–it’s in psych majors.

One quick word about

“this is the Net, where 75% of the females online think that if you want contact with them, you MUST desire to have sex with them”

That’s because it their daily lives 90% of their male friends want to sleep with them, and they transfer that protective nature over to the internet. I’ve experienced that A LOT in my own life, and it’s very frustrating (if you want to hear the long version of that story you’ll have to mixx-mail me.)

I don’t have any twitter advice for you because I’m a twitter n00b. However, I can say one thing about the volunteering. The best thing to do is what you’ve already done, outline your strengths and give yourself reassurance that you are a valued member of their team even if those with less self-efficacy doubt it. You are awesome: you’re doing a great job for them and anyone who doesn’t appreciate it is too wrapped up in her own petty problems.

He says in one of the videos that he “would not hesitate to strike those tha would do us harm” Hmm, what’s he referring to there? Hopefully not Iran.

Thanks a ton for sharing– I felt like I was there ^_^

Second of all: Good post. I think it’s complete dog-shit what the RIAA claims. Think about it this way – I might like a song by Artist A, but not the other songs I’ve heard by them. In a CD world, I’d pass on buying it at all. Now, I can buy the single I like, giving the artist and label some money, rather than the no money they would get otherwise. Also, I might hear a song and download it. Then really like it. Then I’m likely to download the entire album. I got an emusic gift sub for a year, and I get 30 downloads a month. I find myself downloading a song or two, then getting the rest of the album for the tracks I like. The RIAA is wrong about everything. Everything. Their rant about making tracks available for free ruining the industry turned into so much hot air as soon as Trent Reznor did so and made over a million dollars in less than a week. Of course the RIAA hated that. Because it proved them wrong and because the money went to the artist and not the labels.
