I've finally figured out a way to resolve my firewall problems at work, that prevent me from conversing with you spags during business hours.
Here is my plan.
You guys buy bus tickets, or plane tickets if it suits you.
You come to Maine.
You all apply to work at my agency (okay, well Ratatosk probably shouldn't apply ;) ).
We become a team of awesome and win and I get to laugh more.
The End.
It's gotta work, right?
Hey, I'll humor anything once. What's the work doing?
I'm down if I can telecommute to Maine?
I've missed ye around here, bud! The decreased volume of lulz is tangible.
If you can convince all these other spags to come to Maine, I will return.
Otherwise, I'll have to find a different rationalization for whoring myself out to someplace I'm totally sick of for nothing more interesting than money.

This agency deals more with overall health prevention, so tobacco, nutrition, physical activity, and my bread and butter, substance abuse prevention. My job is to implement programs and develop systems to reduce the prevalance of substance abuse here. I've got 3 years to do it.
I would do it but I'm allergic to snow.
I would do it but... I'ma scared of new things and places. :sad:
The only medical advice I am qualified to give:
Kids, don't get hit by nuclear missiles.
Well, living in Maine is probably a good step in that direction, well, I suppose Southern Maine would be in for it if a missle hit Boston.
Nuclear missiles - just say no.
Oh man, I just realized using anti-drug slogans to protest nuclear missiles could be hilarious. Given how certain nations are addicted to them, always looking to score more....they'd make great posters, and the incongruity of the message might make people actually take notice.

Fuck Yeah! I'm down with that. WE WILL MARCH ON A ROAD OF CHOLESTEROL!

Is there actually any real evidence that kids will get more access to nuclear missiles if we legalize them, though?

For a given definition of "access" being - going splodey several hundred feet above their heads

Because some people actually cares about the lives of others. Because he sees it as making a positive difference in someones life? Because it beats doing nothing?

Actually, no. I already have produced results in some of my past work. My work has produced measurable results that proves I've prevented kids from using drugs or reduced the use of drugs. My target is to reduce use by 15% and I'm aiming to reach it.

You know, 50-post suggestion and all, but still.... That was a real asshole thing to say.
Unless, of course, you enjoy seeing strung-out tweaker teenagers. Which, come to think of it, makes you
more of an asshole.
Isn't EBS one of those peoples from TCC?
Oh.
Well, that makes complete sense, then.

Pretty cool.
Not sure I'd be a fit, I have no problem with people using substance. I do have a problem with people usuing them to that they cease to behave like a person, and my own personal pitch / reason for avoiding them is "Smoking that crap will fuck you lungs, and you won't be able to run / spar / fence as long or well.

It wasn't my intent to be an asshole, just realistic about most adults. I didn't realize that teens were the target audience. They need all the help they can get.
What's TCC?
The Celtic Connection. I think there is a thread about us in Operation Mindfuck.

Right. Chuck the damn kids off a cliff, they whine less that way, right?
I already mentioned that I didn't realize teens were the target audience so no I wouldn't chunk them off a cliff. Teens can be helped.
This thread made me snicker uncontrollably...up until the last page anyways.
RWHN, if you build a teleporter in your office, and one at my house I'll come visit you every day. :D

Heh, what does your team do RWHN?
We have one person who promotes worksite wellness. So she goes to businesses and does presentations and talks to them about how to promote wellness amongst their employees. We have another person who focuses on tobacco use. There is yet another woman who does social marketing and programming around substance abuse prevention. My particular role is tied to a federal grant the agency wrote and is specific to the twin-cities I live in and specific to the youth of these two cities.
It is a weird set up really. Because 100% of my time is supposed to be devoted to this grant. And the project director of the grant isn't housed here at this agency, she is actually a part of the school district office. So really, she is my boss in the grand scheme of things, yet, I'm housed with these other weirdos. And then, on top of all that, I'm actually employed and paid by the hospital in this city. It's a bunch of weird, twisted layers.
Give hugs! Not Drugs!
See, I'm a natural. :D
We could even put out a commercial where some guys in a car, have a stick of dynamite in the back while ordering fast food. Then the same guys drive up to the same window later with a block of C4 in the back. They almost hit a little girl on a bike as they freak out and drive away. In the final scene the same guys have a nuke in the back of their car. As they peel-out of the drive-thru, they run over the poor little girl on the bike.
This is what happens when you do explosives. Just say no.
Heh, so they ran a press release in the newspaper today announcing my arrival cpmplete with my ugly mug. In the actual newspaper, everything was fine and dandy. But, when you went to the online version, they had inadvertently posted a picture of this old Catholic Priest with the article instead of my picture. So now everyone at the office is calling me Father WHN. (well, they're using my real name of course).
I talked to the newspaper and got them to fix it, and they confided to me that I should count myself lucky. Because not too long ago they had inadvertently printed a picture of Snoop Dogg in some poor old lady's obituary.
:lulz:
I printed a copy out.
What is really funny, is what the url for the page ended up being. The story was in the "noteworthy" section of the Sun Journal, so the end of the url for the article was "notrwhn" (substituting rwhn for my first initial, last name).
