okay, i still have a shred of dignity, and refuse to teach an online course on a site that features the following:
1. A $97 course on Blogging Basics. Learns about blogs!
2. A $55 course that promises you’ll be able to speak to God by the end.
3. An "add to shopping cart" option when choosing your classes.
4. The option to be awarded certificates for outstanding achievements and other crap, at the cost of $15 per certificate. Buy your gold stars here! Get yer gold stars!
5. A sample syllabus that includes the caveat, "Course lectures may have spelling errors and typos."
If I don’t have a job in six months, this will be my new place of business, but only until I have enough money to buy a shotgun and some ammo.

Apparently, I’m allowed to just independently teach writing online without anyone hiring me. Now, to figure out the odds of someone paying me to teach them how to write….
any takers?

if i don’t apply for these last 3 fellowships, is it because i’m lazy, or because i’m actually convinced that that’s now what I want to do for the next 2 years?

kevin’s away message was a lot better than anything i could come up with, so i’m stealing it, even though it doesn’t relate to me at all:
"hopefully my aunt’s gay brother doesn’t dress up like santa again this year. that was weird.
"
