Oh hey, I applied

Oh hey, I applied for a job! Well, it’s not really a job… it’s a job LOBSTER! (dang dang dang dung dung ding dung ding ding).

Whoops, sorry, I just channeled the B-52s. Anyway, I applied for a job at answers.google.com, which is a Google service that is for-pay. People who need answers to really specific questions (like “what percent of the human population has one green eye and one blue eye?”, a $7 question, w00t!) offer anywhere from $4 to $50 for someone who’s Google-approved to answer it, and the researcher gets 75% of the proceeds. First I had to write an essay on why I wanted to become a researcher, and now I have to research and answer 5 test questions to Google’s satisfaction in order to become One with the Search Engine.

Some hard drive in one of my computers is making a nasty clunking noise. This can mean nothing good.
