Downplaying your qualifications is a slippery slope. What employers want in a soft job market is to save money...you may or may not be overqualified; they just want to pay you less than you are worth. You get hired, then you find yourself doing a higher level job than what you are getting paid for. That has long term consequences; years later you are a manger being paid less than you should be. Voice of experience here. Be careful. Do what it takes to get the job, but be ready to jump when economic conditions improve. You are young enough to pull it off. Good luck!

Hey now! I detect a little cynicism. Tennessee is a great place; don't lump us in with North Korea. All tourists are welcome here. You should keep your clothes on in public, but otherwise...a big howdy y'all.

Bravo! Everyone is happy.

Great chapter, Nick. I think Gerald's reluctance to share his past with Dennis will always put a strain on their relationship. He needs to trust his mate.

How true.

E-mail and IM are the new pen and paper. I doubt many new penpal relationships depend on the postal services.

I know a Montreal family that went to Myrtle Beach every winter.

I suspect gay tourists are actually welcome in South Carolina by businesses that cater to tourists.

I agree. Take a break. Just don't pull a Dom Luka on us.

Yosemite, definitely...I love it. New York or Newark?

Australia. Italy or Albania?

I pulled a chair out to seat a lady at lunch the other day. The hostess was impressed and commented on my courtesy. I felt good. Please give the $5 to someone else so he can afford to take a lady to lunch.

Congratulations, Bob. We need some experienced folks here. Keep on posting!

Demons are a bit more routine for him now.

The person below me is quite uncomfortable.

Well, Worthington is now a full-fledged Now, he can get to the important stuff. Great chapter, Dan...a lot of plot development. Thanks.

dkstories has released Chapter 27 of Rich Boy:Growing Pains. Is it still Friday?

Hooray! Gay guys can be heroes, too. Great Story, CJ. In honor of your accomplishment, our dinner tonight included a salad with goat cheese. Looking forward to Changing Lanes.

It's amazing that we got 70 posts on the topic of "?" while waiting for the epilogue which is finally here.

C James has released the Epilogue to Let the Music Play. It appears CJ has had enough of the "?" business.

Today is Friday in some parts of the world. What a choice! We can blame Shadowgod and get the epilogue sooner or we can maintain our integrity and wait.

Duncan, I have read the first three chapters of How the Light Gets In and appreciate your continuing the earlier story of all these wounded characters. I assume we will see in Chapter 4 Luc's reaction to Scott's news that Scott will not be Luc's roommate. I hope that Luc will get over any initial disappointment and be agreeable to Matt's presence. It may seem to some readers that Luc and Matt are too wounded by past experiences to be of any help to one another, but their experiences are significantly different. A close friendship between them could result in each one helping the other. And we need to remember that Scott's experiences haven't all been good. His past experience with Luc would likely hinder their ability to objectively seek healing for Luc. I'm looking forward to chapter 4. Thanks for a great story.

I never liked Microsoft.

True.
