Okay, so I had to bring this to you all. As I'm continuing my daily grind of turning over every rock and looking in every nook and cranny for a job, I came across this ad at Craigslist that I couldn't pass up:
"Seeking highly trained NINJA (indianapolis eastside)"
No, I'm not making this up. I thought this was only in the movies. But apparently, there is someone here in Indianapolis who seeks "the assistance and expertise of one highly trained Ninja, or group of Ninjas, for a covert art project/political activism task. Some repelling may be required from a height of 100 feet."
A few questions come to mind: 1. Is there such thing as a Ninja who is not highly trained?, 2. Can I place my bet right now for just how long it takes to actually find someone in Indianapolis who meets the requirements?, and 3. Where do I sign up? :)
Can you hear it faintly in the background? "Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting..."
And the job search goes on...
i don't know about you, but Jean is definitely ready for the job. i don't know how she does it.

I bet YouTube is full of clips of poorly trained ninjas.
Yep. Here's one:

Mandy, I actually did check into that "greatest job in the world", but couldn't get onto the website. I found out this morning that their site crashed after over 200,000 people rushed it in 24 hours. Almost the shot of a lifetime. :)

I can't say that chillin on a beach for 6 months AND 100 grand sound too bad. We might be able to handle that.
