hey, it's all good but I'm just disturbed that folks just don't get it about this.  It is NOT funny to some people who find this too personal and offensive.  

So to turn the tables, is it that the children can't distinquish what is and isn't offensive?  Or am I too grown up to find this funny...

I thought kopilot was a cool shop in Louisville that's all. I know it's been mentioned in the "other thread" but don't understand all of that. It would be funny if Katkillad ended up working for Danny. No disrespect meant to anybody, named or unnamed.

Okay,

Finally I got the picture.  Now that I know what Kopilot is ...(guess I'm not such a die hard like you are john)

If you now that, then I can imagine that some people feel offended by that one sentence.

Big Bird is definitely asexual.  It is like that on purpose, but Burt and Ernie are definitely gay.  The Cookie Monster seems like a drug fiend, Oscar has prostate trouble and permanent constipation, and the Count is definitely dealing.

WORD!  UP!

1)  You need to make that into a song.  You simply must.  (Not Word Up, that is already a song.  A song that you can dance to on a special rug that lights up where you're supposed to step.)
2)  You are wrong about Big Bird.  I cannot understand why anyone thinks that he is asexual...
3)  Hm.  I was trying to think of the girl puppets, and I was going to call one of them the Neighbourhood Block Whore, but I can't think of any girl puppets...  Maybe it'll have to be Maria?

(ooooooh, that felt wrong.)

Quoteyo, Louisville is the hot spot for jobs, don't know much bout Lexington and jobs but there's a plethora of stuff going on here...what's your interests?  what kind of businesses are you interested in?  do you have a particular attachment to lexington (vicinity of I-75?  :))


Hah, so i checked this thread after I got back from Florida and found no responses...decided to check back and saw tons.  Sorry I wasn't around to participate.  

I would be interested in Louisville as well.  I'm not 100% sure what i'm looking for at the moment.  I had an internship for a huge insurance firm ( Cincinnati Financial ) that I liked, but was boring at the end of ever month because there was nothing to do.  So that made me switch from an accounting degree to General Business.

I think I just got an internship at TQL, which is a logistics business in cincinnati.  There is also a branch in West Virginia i may look into once I am finished.

So, i'm not really picky.  Something that is business related and pays reasonable.  Maybe something in a corporate office.  I haven't done any real research just yet, figured i would ask and see if anyone had any names to throw out.

just a smattering of company names here:

-Humana:  healthcare, health insurance
-UPS:  Big Brown
-Anthem:  same as Humana
-Ford
-massive nonprofit arts organizations, like a dozen
-huge industrial park, 33,000 employees
-National City Bank's headquarters

don't know what your primary interest is, but these are just the big ones that I know about.  check em out.

louisville is cool for other reasons, namely mild climate (with the notable exception of that storm at xmas), low taxes, and its totally laid back vibe.

QuoteHumana:  healthcare, health insurance

THAT'S what the new play festival is named after?  A healthcare company?  

Huh.

John, what's the weather like in Louisville today?  And what's it like in February?  

For example, in Toronto, it's dark and snowy and probably about -5 degrees.

strangely, it's 64 F today and cloudy.  unusually warm day for winter here, but it's not like northern states at all here in the winter.  no 4 months of frozen ground and snow everywhere...

and yes, the Humana festival is named for the Humana group of companies, or rather their charitable arm for arts support.  the arts are just huge here, lots of galleries, lots of performing arts centers...

Okay (roughly doing conversion in my head) 64 is about, ah, 12 degrees, I think.  Wow!  Nice!


peanut butter puddin surprise

yup, that sounds about right...every day I spent in Montreal it was a struggle to express how cold it was to everyone else back home.

damn I miss it there.  two weeks there, and I got hooked!

so I got lost here somewhere:  what is so offensive about the name of Danny's toy store?
Sittin' here with me and mine.  All wrapped up in a bottle of wine.

Thanks for the info, maybe just for fun i'll keep the thread updated at places I apply to.  My gf is coming in this weekend and we might go to Hebron to check out some schools she may apply to.    

It's really warm here today as well.  Crazy weather.  I'm wearing sandals in winter.  

EC

It's warmish in Toronto as well...  Everybody's recyling, right?
