I'm determined to get to 400 tonight -- ask me anything
Optional: How rare is it for GD: "Crunchy" to be less "well done" than GD: "Smooth"?

4. Finding out just how bad the job market is
I'm a college student taking a leave of absence (thank you, Bush education plan...), and I'm trying like hell to find a job that's not in a watermelon field somewhere.

5. What brought you to DU?
I don't know why I showed up, or how.... it's been lost to the mists of time.

8. Um... I believe it was WilliamPitt's book
"The Greatest Sedition is Silence"

I bought the book after reading some of his work on truthout.org, and he left an acknowledgement to DU on the last page of his book.

11. Don't major in Sociology
It's a useless major. Enlightening, but useless.

19. Language, mostly
I love picking apart rhetoric -- the literature aspect of the major doesn't appeal to me much. It's the main reason I'm thinking about making a switch.

16. That's just too easy
The stance, the goofy smile, the Hitleresque hand positioning... wow. Way too easy.

18. You're asking the wrong person :)
I've been around since about October of last year, and I'm just now inching towards 400.

Welcome to DU, by the way. :)

24. In most parts
Things get a bit messy in Israel/Palestine, and sometimes there's some blood spilled in the GD forums (today, for instance :shudder:), but other than that, we're a peaceful lot.

21. I'm not as up on "Family Guy" as I should be...
but Homer is pretty bad. I'll have to go with Peter Griffin, unless you can convince me otherwise :).
