    No, no, no. It's not as high as minimum wageium. It's lower, almost as low as Mr. Jordan's IQ.

    I'm scared. I got an e-mail from Mr. Jordan. The subject was "Bootstrapper wanted" There was nothing in the body just an attachment with the above ad. Odd...

    I think I posted my resume on journalismjobs.com and this guy will not stop calling me ... he sounds drunk every time.

    I haven't talked to him, but he probably found my info from jjobs, or some other place i had my resume posted. It'd be nice if he said where he got it, though. Everyone else who has contacted me from those jjobs or other sites at least says "Dear Jeremy, I saw your resume on ______. We have an opening and am interested in you."

    This SOB emails me three times a week -- hey George, I'm 1500 miles away and have no desire to bootstrap for you...

    I haven't checked my email in nearly a month. Guess what? I received 8 messages from this nut. He could be a robot.

    Got another call from him ...

    "Don't know what kind of job you're looking for, but I got jobs -- sign up, sign up!"

    Well, at least selling ads will be easier by saying, "I'll write an article about you if you buy a 2 x 4."
