Let me tell you, I think the whole Tom Cruise thing is SO MUCH MORE INTERESTING than the whole Jonbenet Ramsey thing. Dave the Trainer even had a rumor that they found Tom in NYC spanking some guys and feathers all over the room. I think he got suckered by some fake rumor in the local “alternative” newspaper, but who knows? Weirder things have happened.

Everyone at Megacorp is still worried about getting laid off. The ones who got it early are the best off, since they can look for jobs before the number of unemployed people in Oregon skyrockets because of the layoffs. The best bet, according to the guys I have coffee with, is to get hired by Union Pacific driving railroad trains. For some reason, there’s a shortage of applicants. It sounds like a pretty nice job, really. Honestly, I think I might actually go for degree #5. Masters in Public Health? Bioinformatics? Masters of Nursing? A law degree? I’m not sure. Maybe I’ll just try to keep my job. Change is scary.
