One of my friends is texting me from DES (aka welfare office) ashamed that he has been out of work and needs food stamps to feed his son.

If I were a better JavaScripter I'd whip up an interactive Molly. You click on different body parts for dollars. Some cost more. #justSayin

@yomartin That's hilarious. Maybe an HTML5 game where people can brand different parts of me. ROFL.
@zachmau That's a wonderful idea. Certain professional memberships in orgs offer that. Pre-existing conditions always get me sliced out.
My friends advocate selling off body parts, provide me immoral support and tease me silly. Life would be so boring without you all truly xo

@jcmeloni How about some immoral support ;) Hang in there, things are tough all over. We're gonna be fine. Squeaky wheels and all that.

I don't need work, I have work. I need money and healthcare. I don't have money or healthcare. This is called being independent in the USA.

@captbrogers Thanks for the tip! I have work - that is not the problem. I've hit the gap between employee have and freelance waiting for.

@PaulAdamDavis Very cool Paul. Make sure you have plenty o' money - double the amount of time you'll think it's gonna take to settle in.

@johnoxton It is true. I think it happens more often than we account for in this industry - worthy of deeper examination.
@andypemberton - which part of the body thing? LOL? BTW, where's that geolocation presentation link you once sent me. Do want.
I'm not looking for work - I have a book deal and plenty of things to keep me busy. I'm in a dangerous gap that I didn't cover my ass for.

@Friarbubba I share your optimism! It's not lacking options. It's not having my ass covered well enough for the dry spell. @shelleypowers

There are situations where I've let my integrity slip @cwilso , but a full-on pact with the devil, no, I stayed a contractor, remember? Ha!

That's part of the problem. I'm stuck in that was-employed-now-freelance during the worst of a global economy suckage. @shelleypowers

I just love the way my friends are so willing to tell me sell body, or parts of it. Nice friends! FYI, I can't give blood much less sell it.

Huge personal question of the day: What can I sell that'll get me money fast, other than my integrity to a company or soul to a devil?
