| With my first xanga entry in three months, I just wanted to remind all
of you that the season premiere of 24 (continues) tonight. If you
missed last night's episodes, here is a quick recap of what you need to
know:
1) Kal Penn (Kumar) makes an appearance. As a terrorist. No, seriously.
2) Jack Bauer shows some emotion. This is even more shocking than fact number 1.
And what to expect tonight:
1) More of Kal Penn being a terrorist. Unfortunately, the hilarity
wears off around the hundredth time you see him (okay, not really...
who made this casting decision??).
2) Jack Bauer... cries. DEAR MOTHER OF GOD, THE WORLD MUST BE ENDING

| Searching for jobs on nytimes.com comes up with some interesting results. For example, check out this entry right here: http://jobs.nytimes.com/texis/jobsearch/details.html?id=44beb4da6d630&q=Engineer&pp=25&view=1&page=2 Scroll down to the "Important Notice."
Here it is in its entirety:
Important Notice: You are interested in a position as an overt employee---which means you can acknowledge your affiliation with the Central Intelligence Agency. But should you? There may be friends, family, individuals or organizations who would be very interested to learn that you are an applicant for or an employee of the CIA. Their interest, however, may not be benign or in your best interest. You cannot control who they would tell. We therefore ask you to exercise discretion and good judgment in disclosing your interest in a position with the Agency.
I have to apply to this job, if only for the opportunity to say the line, "I COULD TELL YOU WHAT I DO, BUT I'D HAVE TO KILL YOU" and actually mean it. |
