I am Jack's impish desire to flirt with temptation
But I’m not going to do it. That would be foolish.

"Master of CSS who can build cross platform/bro"
It’s true. There’s a real dearth of cross-bro consideration in today’s web design. I can’t tell you how many wireframes I’ve seen that obviously gonna fall apart when you try to move them from one frat house to another.
If you put as much energy into the projects as you do being a dickhead you would be a lot more successful
Story of my life.
On a serious note, craigslist is chock full of job proposals like this. Sometimes I want to flame them and make a blog of my correspondances. After I win the lottery, of course.

The cost-benefit battle between work and training is tilting from “seek glory” back toward “seek profit”. This is the result of reduced daylight—and the fact that my car keeps effing breaking.
Anyway, I’ve been perusing Craigslist for extra writing work. 90% of it is sifting through posts from people who should know better coming up with reasons not to pay you. Turns out that skinflint fraternity has a new member: John A. Keith!
John was a big commenter back in my real estate days, and was one of the few hip enough to sound out my actual feelings on the real estate business. He’s also known to comment on Universal Hub, so I can’t imagine what niche he believes this new project will fill.
I wish him luck in with the new website, though he could stand to spend a little more on a copy editor—at least that’s my perspective.
I need a date for Labor Day party to make my ex jealous.
Winner. Method of payment seems a bit unusual.

"Craigslist known as aid and enabler"
Yeah, an aid and enabler in me getting every full-time job I’ve ever had, gobs of freelance work, a new LCD monitor, plus income from the sale of several computers and a bike.
Seriously, print an article like this and you might as well change your name from the “Boston Globe” to the “Boston Embittered Anachronistic Waste of Ink and Tree Pulp”.

I voted for this as “Best of” the day it came out, and forwardedit to my friends. I’d like to think that I played a small role in creating some Internet history.
