I've kinda been earning the bucks repairing and making adjustments on various musical instruments as of late, as my actual profession (special effects dude for the motion picture/TV industry) has been rather quiet as of late.

There have been so many lay-offs around here it's not funny. It took me 4 months to find a part-time job, last year, and another 2 for a full-time. I am going to be working at H&R Block as well, but it's still very hard around here.

Well sir that sounds terrible, the man who owns the company I work for is Mr. Warren Buffet. I am a door to door salesman for a fortune 500 company that has survived every recession and depression and if your interested I'll mail you the name of this company so that you can look it up in your home town and see about getting on your feet.
