P.S. watch your butt or pay your mortgage, Jason Metzger is now working for the First Merit Mortgage Division.
i've landed a job straight out of college and this job puts me between Akron and Mansfield so i think that's great.
Jan. 12th I start work at First Merit in Lodi, Ohio.
upside: dilbert comics and maybe a cubicle and hopefully Hawaiian Shirt Day every friday.
downside: wearing a "monkey suit"/ looking like a penguin (meaning, i'll have to wear a suit and tie to the office)
is it a little suspect that i was hired without having an interview?

has the Internet become so passè or have i just lost total interest/control?
Christmas in OHIO was superb and i really don't believe that Christmas can exist without snow. Keith's idea of an armordillo for X-Mas (II) was ingenious. i'd put cowboy boots on mine if i had one.
evil scotty wasnt that evil this X-Mas but it's probably due to the fact he had to dump his evil gear in the St. Clair river on the way to AMERICA.

Welcome to Blogger Off Season!!!
I've been consumed by the holiday traffic and the holiday madness. A slave to retail, i cannot even find refuge at home due to the influenza outbreak of 2003. Playing nursemaind and whipping boy to a 50-yr old man isn't my idea of a quiet evening at home.*
Sources have Keith's "Operation: Bat out of Hell" somewhere in Illinois right this moment.
* - i am referring to my Dad although he's pretty much slept 20 hours today and has not asked for anything. I'm just looking to pass some blame for my inability to put together a successful day-off.

Congratulations, Scotty.
You've surrendered "Uncle" Saddam Hussein, what's next? Are you fleeing? Did Saddam slow you down? The press has repeatedly referred to Hussein's hideout as a "spider hole." Is it then coincidence that you are called TARAN-TULA? You live and operate underground, Saddam was found underground, we've got you on the run. What/where is your next move? You are a slippery eel but your buddy icon blew your cover. We know you are moving. Is it because the fire is getting too close for comfort? You say you are innocent of all allegations, I say surrender your passport.
Happy Holidays Scotty!,
Jason A. Metzger

I tried to watch "Bend It Like Beckham" this afternoon but all that held my attention were taut, bare, female midriffs. hey, at least i'm not into Maxim or Stuff.
eldest dog, ABBAgale got a dinosaur haircut last night b/c of refusing to get out of the woods and out of the burrs. poor girl, school pictures are next monday.

I really wonder if i'm dead and walking through school today as a spectre. why?
It seems as if people don't see me or recognize the fact that i'm holding a door open for them. hence no "thanks" or "excuse me". for their sake, let's hope i am just going through my "sixth sense" time of the month.
DEATH TO FINALS!
UP TO PIZZA!

that's my oldest sister's IM name and it's funny that i've never mentioned it before but she's blocked her own brother from IM'ing her. believe you me, that really hurts more than i show it.*
We got dismantled tonight in soccer. who would imagine a team like OSU-M could blow a 3-0 lead at halftime, only to lose 6-3?
Group paper work is killing me at the moment/weekend. I was fairly stressed out until i saw a car hit hit from behind by a pick-up. i had to smile at that...happy holidays, pal.
* - ok, i don't care if i'm blocked. it only means i can't read her lame-ass "away messages" which at one time gave keith and I something to snicker about.

Tons of the white stuff (oreos) have fallen upon Palomar since last night. I should probably call Mr. Plow.
though i never thought it could happen, network television has drawn me back in. yes it used to be Seinfeld on NBC, now it's become Law & Order plus West Wing. have i become a high brow?
i never imagined working for Dick could be so boring yet so enjoyable at the same time.
i never guess or imagine things that actually do happen in my life.

Guilty!
The family and i watched "The Simple Life" tonight (that's the one with Paris Hilton and Lionel Ritchie's daughter living on the farm). Paris Hilton could party here on Palomar Drive.
"Trista and Ryan's Wedding" is on now. this show is horrible. Ryan is crying because of the bachelor party strippers. lame.
i better just stop right here.

yes, i missed my dental appointment but preventive maintainence keeps me from having 1800's-British-Sailor-Teeth.
President Truman, who's currently at my feet, is going on an exectutive tear, just like that of the Clinton staff when they were moving out of the Whitehouse*.
I'm starting to remember what exactly happened last week in Arizona. Phoenix was all brown, brown everywhere, a real Turd City, USA. it's urban sprawl as seen from the mountain top, is ugly. note, to make a city look appealing, why not build up rather than out? it's sprawl gives the effect of a giant strip mall and if i were President (not Truman though) i'd issue the order to burn the city, keeping only the IHOP and the McDonald's with the "Jurassic Jungle" playland.
the abundant jock-rock stations didnt win any points with me either. Phoenix, are you really two years behind Ohio?
* - The Clinton staff's antics involved more urine i think.

i'm breathing easier now (literally) that i am home from the Red Planet, or as some people refer to it, ARIZONA.
it was nice having a week of vacation with sunshine and NO school, NO work. due to lack of anything witty to say, i'm ending my vacation wrap-up.
with only one week left of school, how stressful can it get? i'm saying VERY although i am not sure what that all entails.
