Help a Starving Italian Child!
Would you like to help a starving Italian-American child? A child starving for culture? Starving to escape the buckle of the bible belt?

I'm John. I live in Georgia. That's reason enough to want to move, but I also want to attend Naropa in Boulder, and at this point am seriously considering a move in the near future. What's the employment scene look like in the Boulder area? How outrageous are housing prices? Are there many law offices that'd like to employ little political science turning religious studies major office monkeys who want to go to law school? Will I get funny looks every time someone figures out that I'm a Democrat?

:::Makes that pouty "feed the children" face:::

Here's to there, and thanks!

John

1. Maybe it's just my overall bad mood because of the stolen election
but this:

:::Makes that pouty "feed the children" face:::

is incredibly poor taste. Those kids aren't making faces, they're actually starving. Making light of them is just sick.

2. no topic
:::makes the pouty "I'm making fun of commercials designed to elicit an emotional reaction from me using children" face:::

In making my pouty feed the children face, I wasn't making light of the children, I was more making light of the commercials trying to extort money from me, the commercials that so effectively smear on the pouty face. Either that or I'm an incredibly callous asshole who would eat a turkey leg in front of a homeless shelter while dancing the jig in front of someones wheelchair. Or, it's just the overall bad mood because of the stolen election. I'm leaning towards the latter.

5. Hey paisan,
Boulder can be very affordable. I think you can rent a 60 square foot closet for under $500/month. At least it's liberal friendly. I can't say much about the job market there. Try looking at the online classifieds..
