The problem is, it's just not as good as the skadden email. It's just a poor hate letter, that happened to go to a co-worker, so: busted. It doesn't contain all the wonderful digs on Skadden and its summer program that made the email so wonderful to read.

And he doesn't even accuse her of being bad in bed, or something juicy.

Property taxes are paid for such services, but one could argue that once you're outside the office, store, etc., that you are directly benefitting from the -availability- of city services. You don't have to tangibly use them to enjoy the benefit of them. Or so they say.

FUck this thread is boring. Can we go back to the scinitillating convo about how the metro planners fucked up? Jesus. I would rather bill.

And not even a very good one at that. For such an elitist, you'd think he'd proof it once...

Is Falun Gong-fest this week? Everywhere I try to go, I have to cut through a mass of people wearing bright yellow shirts. Sometimes carrying signs. It's not quite as bad as umbrellas, but is this a week-long call for attention to the dictatorial ways of the Chinese government?

Do their signs say "Vive Lance"?

They were handing out flyers all over the place yesterday. I tried to avoid them as much as possible. In fact, I'd rather deal with the Hare Krishna who have also been roaming around recently.

I'm trying to figure out their deal. They make it sound like basically a type of yoga/tai chi, but that the chinese gov't is prosecuting them like the Germans the Jews. Not that I trust the commies in China, but surely something more is going on there. The pamphlets, which were thrust at me by at least 4 people at lunch, did not educate me beyond the five poses of Falun (or something)

I've heard similar things but get the feeling that they're a bit more cultish than the yoga/tai chi exercises that they seem to act out en masse.

I want to venture and say that they're the Far East version of the Scientologists, but then I might get a death threat from their lawyers from from L. Ron's ghost.

As expected, the suit has been filed.

Are you sure you're not a man? This was very fast and wholly unsatisfying:

Given the dearth of any other comments and/or commentary, is there anyone that can provide information in response to my request for information on Telecom jobs? Also, can anyone provide a reference to a good headhunter? I know Susan Belardi is gone, so is there anyone else that is good???

Someone has gotta know something.
