You get emails about scams and stuff all the time. Snopes.com is your friend in these cases, of course, filtering the fact from the fiction. In this case, though, why not go straight to the carrier?

Alright, don't think I've posted any of these links before... Chris Wiesinger, as I'm sure most of you know, is a very good friend of mine. After high school and some local junior college at BC, he moved to Texas to finish up at A&M, and ended up staying there (the punk). Anyway, there's a pretty good overview when you follow the link. This is at least the second such review I've seen of Chris' work in a publication, but I know there have been others as well.

Buy it for me here! heh...

Aright! I imagine you've noticed that the site design has changed. If you had an account on the old site, it will still work here (that's not your forum account). If not, feel free to register, then just let me know that you registered so I can approve you.

Differences in the new site

Well, they were right... I didn't know! You may put in crazy hours, but boy are you compensated. Still, can't see it being a good job for someone with a family.
