I am on Linkedin....BAZINGA!

A rat race...damn I crack me up.

Yes, against my better judgement but with pressure from the Powers That Be, I am now able to troll the working world for suitable links. It all smacks of Facebook stalkery to me, but veiled in a veneer of professionalism.

Obviously, the first thing I did was search for anyone I know from school or university to see how badly off they are. Wow, was that a big mistake. Here I am, within spitting distance of my college, and most of my chums (or mortal enemies) are hither and yon around the globe doing all sorts of exciting things.

Oddly, I am not consumed with jealousy; instead I am quietly pleased that I have successfully avoided the rat race and can scuttle off home and be there in less than 10 minutes. Hooray!
