    Job Posting: Somaliland!

    Hey guys, this is a long shot, but on the off-chance that any of you are looking for a... sabbatical of sorts from your current job, I thought I'd give this a try. I'm currently working in Somaliland teaching computer classes to high school students, but our university director is pretty hard up...

    Moving to Somalia!

    Well, Somaliland to be exact. They're doing their damnedest to differentiate themselves from the rest of Somalia, and are hoping to become internationally recognized as an independent state. I've accepted a teaching position on the horn of Africa beginning this summer. It's in a small village...

    Need help identifying mystery animal...

    I have a friend living in Somaliland, and a group of folks there came across this animal the other day. To make a long story short, he ended up with the animal in his custody, and we're trying to figure out what it is... it's like a cross between a meerkat and a mongoose and a raccoon...

    NASA: The Sagan Series

    Wouldn't be surprised if I was late to the game on these, but I searched for NASA and Sagan and came up with nothing. I thought these short videos were great, especially the first one, and it looks like parts three and four are in the works. Some cool space footage, earth footage, all put to...

    ATOT Effect Requested for a Comedian!

    So I've been lurking here for a few years now, but I always try and vote when the ATOT effect is requested, and now I'm finally turning the tables. A former boyfriend of mine from about a decade ago who has remained a good friend has found his calling in life and become a comedian. He's...

    Gaming Headset

    Could anyone possibly recommend me a headset/microphone for gaming? Here are my criteria: - Looking for something roughly under $80 - Must be the earmuff style that goes over your head, not around your neck - Must have an in-line volume controller Other than that, I'm not too picky. I've...

    Another Southwest Airlines Incident.

    More fuel for the fire. Same airline, different chick, and this time no controversy about whether or not her poon was showing.

    Any dentists in the house?

    Okay. I just moved a few months ago to a new city, and I need to get my teeth cleaned. I've been looking for a new dentist, but can't find anyone who knows what the hell I'm talking about. At my old dentist, you used to be able to choose two methods of having your teeth cleaned: the old...

    Monitor Suggestions

    So I'm looking into an early Christmas present for myself. I'd like a new monitor. My Viewsonic CRT has done me good for a number of years, but it's time to make the switch. I think the amount of time I spend gaming on my computer warrants buying one. Problem is, I'm a poor bastard, and my...

    Third Shift

    Just out of curiosity, can anyone give me any ideas of decent third shift jobs? I'm not looking to quit working the daylight hours tomorrow, but I used to help out with a night job a few years ago when I had first started college, and really enjoyed being awake in the early hours when no one was...

    iPod Trouble

    So after many weeks of reading your forums, I've finally joined and am making my first post. I could use some suggestions. I just received the new 60G iPod Photo as a gift, and installed iTunes on a friend's computer while I was fixing mine, so I could begin downloading music. Once my...
