I see there are some for copy writing...at the least you have some writing samples of that advertising, web type, to apply for those kinds of jobs...I have writing samples, they're just not the kind that makes somebody want to hire you to write ad copy, that kind of thing...

thanks for the link though. Job hunting still the pits.

Hear Ye-hear Ye! STOCK MARKET RALLY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH Sep 06, 2012
Obama or the democratic party. This is for those who don't wish to go down to my first posting or wish to ignore it. I just want to make sure everyone is straight on this. OBAMA OR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STOCK MARKET RALLY TODAY. There. Is that clear enough? The stock market closed at 13,292 because the ECG (European Central Bank) is buying up bonds. It has nothing to do with Obama. I can't believe you're trying to give credit to him or the part ...

Did You Hear About The VA Textbook Errors?Jan 05, 2011
(CNN) -- A panel of historians has found an "appalling" number of factual errors in a new fourth-grade history textbook used in many Virginia school districts, one of the experts said. The panelists vetted the book "Our Virginia: Past and Present" at the state's request, after it drew national scrutiny for its controversial assertion that during the Civil War, units of black soldiers fought on the Confederate side. Among the mistakes noted by the three reviewers: • The War of In ...

ATLANTA (AP) -- Police say a man who robbed a Wendy's at gunpoint was so upset with his haul that he twice called the fast food restaurant to complain. A man wearing a ski mask and holding a gun walked up to the drive-through window of an Atlanta Wendy's about 11:15 p.m. Saturday. He told an employee to put the cash drawer on the counter. The robber grabbed the drawer and ran away. Police say he later called the fast food restaurant to complain about the lack of cash. In one call h ...

It was all over the news and all over the 'net. To me he sounded pretty egotistical in the one paragraph, but the comment that shocked me (highlighted in yellow) was later on in this article: CHICAGO - President Obama gave supporters in Chicago a glimpse of insider Washington during a fund-raiser the other day, privately critiquing House Republicans, government workers, even the White House telephones. The words weren't that newsworthy, but their delivery had the White House a little ...

I've been invited to two friends' parties. One is Grace Adele/Scentsy and the other is 31. Has anyone heard of these or gone to one of these parties or own any of these products? I've checked out their websites and think it's pretty pricey for their stuff. Is it worth it? To me if I'm going to spend that kind of money, I'd rather save up and buy Coach. I hate to turn down invites but if I go then I feel obligated to buy and then I either overspend or feel guil ...
