    Nothing ventured...nothing gained. Continue in your application process and see what happens.
    This career is not a sprint, it is a marathon.

    You're going to learn a lot more from the agency you apply for than a bunch of anonymous people on the Internet. The worst that can happen is they say no.
    Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

    Of course they do. They just lost a vote and a census number (or maybe 2 or 3. Hundred). Ever watch Discovery channel when the lion goes after the water buffalo and they all form up a circle to protect one of their own? It's sort of like that only the buffalo are smarter.

    You haven't seen a liberal community until you've seen Portland. It gives San Francisco a run for its money now. And as I said earlier, downtown is full of mentally ill, homeless thugs, etc. The panhandlers are getting so aggressive that they threaten people, but judges continually throw out any ordinance that even the socialist city council passes.....

    I subscribe to the paper only for the comics, the crossword puzzle and to remind me how glad I am I don't work there anymore.......
