The Latest Frogg Update
Another Monday. Another reason to hit the bottle.
Just kidding. No really, I am.
That reminds me, though, I was just thinking that a cool drinking game during the past eight years would have been to throw one down every time Bush said "on my watch". Oh well.
I didn't get to hear his press conference today, just the highlights on NPR. But they played one clip where he talked about how the media sometimes "misunderestimated" him.
Classic to the end.
On another, completely unrelated note, I read about an exciting new job Down Under. Basically, you get $100,000 for six months of lounging around on an island and having adventures. I think I could handle that. I'm really really good at lounging around. Like, we're talking SUPER good. And I'm not too bad at the adventure thing, either.
The only bummer is you have to apply via video. I am not what you'd call a filmmaker, unless if by "filmmaker" you mean "someone who doesn't have a clue how to make films." Which would be silly. But anyway, in spite of my lack of cinematographic experience, I feel like I want to give this a shot (ha). The only real requirements they have for the position are that you be enthusiastic, a good communicator, attractive and adventurous. Check, check, check and check.
OK, I totally need to find a video camera. And someone who knows how to work it...
Anyway, so I'll keep you posted on that one.
Speaking of adventures, I'll be heading to Thailand next week, working with a group called NightLight. Should be an interesting, educational, and challenging time. I can't wait. I'll be there from January 20-31, and I hope to make at least a couple blog updates while I'm there, so watch this space. I know you probably don't believe that I'll actually do it, since I haven't been what you'd call good at keeping my blog updated, but hey, I might surprise all of us.
Don't misunderestimate the power of the frogg, kids.

I'm super jealous that you're going to Thailand--I went last year and LOVED it--and that you'll be working with women and children caught in the sex industry there--one of my passions is to work with that exact demographic! Wow...please keep us posted to your adventures. I expect that you'll come away changed.

Dude, so I checked out some of the submitted video clips. They SUCK! Wow. Pointless, boring, without direction, poorly made, executed, the whole shebang of FLOP.
I may have to apply myself. :)
