Five Simple Rules

If you're thinking of changing jobs or looking for work just remember these 5 simple rules:

1. If you have to pay money for it, it's not a job, it's a scam.

2. If it requires that one person tells their friends, who tell their friends, etc. It's not a job, it's a pyramid scheme (also a scam).

3. If someone wants to sell you "an opportunity" or a copy of their "money making system", it's a scam.

4. If you get a lengthy email that reads like a unibomber manifesto filled with testimonies from everyone under the sun at how much money they made just by "following these simple steps to wealth", it's a scam.

5. Real job opportunities don't come by way of spam. If it's spam, it's a scam.

Churchill Must Go

"Where do you get the gall to call the people who died in 9/11 technocrats when you sit around and get a $90,000 paycheck from the government you purport to hate?" College Republican student at CU Boulder, challenging hate-mongering Professor Ward Churchill at a campus forum.

This reminds me of some of the professors I had at George Mason University. One prof in particular spent most of class time telling us how great Marxism was and compared Marx to Jesus saying, “nobody really understood him.” Give me a break. If that idiot prof had ever read the Bible he would have never made those remarks. Jesus never worried about people understanding him. Either you got it because you listened and cared, or you didn’t get it because you were too wrapped up in the world and yourself.

Ward Churchill is also a good example of why our colleges need a good cleansing. Maybe start with a short rope and a tall tree. How long do you think it would take if we started in New England and worked our way to the west coast leaving these scum bags swinging twisting in the wind. Literally.
