My phone stayed quiet today

My phone didn’t ring today as I’d hoped it would. Could be just an oversight, but it certainly would’ve been nice to hear something – anything.

My new job: UN swindle victim!

I was all set to work for this local network storage company when I got this in my inbox! I’m moving to Geneva to work for the United Nations!!!11!!1oneone!!!
