Summer Job


I told you Mario, the only thing I know about pizza besides how to eat it is how to deliver it to your door. So that is exactly what I am going to do for my summer job; deliver pizza's for Papa John's pizza! Good thing I've got this nice little Ford Festiva that gets 40 miles per gallon, what with gas hovering around $3.00 a gallon. I applied at Papa John's just yesterday and was hired immediately. They must be desperate, to hire a guy like me(just kidding)! Tips will keep my gas tank full. Now if I can earn enough to get the head gasket fixed so the damn thing will stop leaking oil it will be a good car for going to college. So with this job I will get to zip around in the nice cool evening weather and have all day to play in the summer sun. When school starts in the Fall I will be working in the student copy center as work study for part of my financial aid. But after that I will NEVER work in printing again! Enjoy your summer everyone.

C Dnem Razhdeneya!

That's my Russian language study phrase for today. It means: Happy Birthday! Today is my birthday, July 12, 1962. I am posting this at night because today we had a fierce windstorm and I was without power most of the day. It makes me realize how dependent we are on electricity and modern technology. Maybe only the Amish have got the right idea with their avoiding technology. But I am going back to school to study Electrical Engineering and finish this degree that I started 20 years ago when I was in the Air Force anyway. I am sooooo tired of printing that I no longer consider it a worthwhile career and I don't even want a summer job doing it. I would rather work in a restaurant this summer, washing dishes if I have to, rather then go back to print and photocopy! Anyway, now that the power is back on it's time to PARTY!!!
