Thin women are "rare and unique"? Since when? They use thin women because they are pretentious, self-serving, and only care about presenting a false-image of what a "real" woman should look like/be like. How exactly is it inspirational? I gotta know.
Paul, have you thought about reaching out to the folks on Yelp.com? Seems to be a really active site for foodies.

Does it make you feel better about yourself to take cheap shots at people whom you don't even know? If I had moderator powers, you would be gone. Finito. Banned IP address, or whatever I had to do. Your negativity is nauseating.
I started my undergrad in earnest about eight years after HS. I had a family, worked full-time (plus overtime) and was full of doubt. I wanted an education more than anything, but had no idea if I could do the work, was smart enough, or could cope...
Thank you for this, Steve. I will definitely look into it. I've already checked out the website some; seems feasible at the least.
Tom, I've read many of your posts on SI and you are undoubtedly on-the-ball, well-rounded, and highly intelligent (feel free to gloat a bit). Am I really gonna have to take ENG/MATH/HIST - 101??? Can't I bribe someone so that I don't have to take ...
Yeah, my best friend has a 4-year degree in Gen-ed from I.U. He is now in the entertainment business in L.A. making really good money. I'm being a bit sarcastic of course. I don't know if taking a bunch of different courses in different areas is s...
Again, I'm not gonna lie, I am not looking forward to possibly having to take refresher math, english, and whatever other "general education" classes. Having to pay for them will make it ultra-excruciating, too. I just want to take the classes tha...
Yes, I am very much questioning whether or not I can do the work; not gonna lie about that. You're absolutely right, choosing an attitude is very important. I definitely have to make some 'internal' changes to make this happen. Thanks for the enco...
Laura, I will look more into 'The Center on Philanthropy'. Thanks for providing that link. And, the AM radio DJ is somewhat of a pipe dream I suppose. I'd like to do it out of my own house; kinda like how Art Bell did 'Coast 2 Coast' for so many y...
Thanks for the sage advice, Erik. I admit, though, I am a bit leary on whether or not classes from Ivy Tech will carry over. I only say that because I've known a few folks over the years who have taken courses @ Ivy Tech and those credits did not ...
Yeah, Indy is full of ghettos. The idea that you think 38th & Illinois is a bad area of town is laughable to say the least.
My god are you obnoxious.
Seeing Bellichick lose gives me great pleasure. I have never seen a more miserable looking person on camera...and he looks that way when they win.
Annie comes up with the BEST discussions: Boobies in the workplace, "hot" yoga, whew, I need a cold shower.
On a serious tip, I used to be a hardcore gym rat: weights, plyometrics, boxing, etc., but, have become sedentary in recent years. I would...
I disagree. Case in point:

It's not exactly about the Colts, but, I think you get the idea. Having the SB in Indy is a HUGE deal. HUGE! But, very few on SI seemed interest...

- How did you hear about Smaller Indiana?
- Search engine
- What is your greatest strength?
- Hardworking, perseverant, problem-solver, good at brainstorming ideas.
- What are you working on?
- Currently, I'm working for the Indiana Department of Revenue but it is only a seasonal position (ends around June of '09, but could possibly be extended longer is what I'm told.) so that is part of the reason I am here--i.e. to network with the great minds of Indiana in the hopes that it will lead to a full-time employment opportunity in the near future.
- How big is your business?
- small company
- What is your Job Title
- Staffer
- What is your alma mater?
- no college
- Why join Smaller Indiana? What are you hoping to experience here ?
- I'm still trying to figure out how I had not come across this site sooner considering how much time I spend online. Anyways, I've been out of the networking loop for too long so I joined this site to make up for lost time. So far, I think it's great and it looks to be a very valuable tool to all those involved.
I'm hoping to experience the synergistic effect of all the great minds on this site, basically. I help you, you help me. You need another volunteer for a particular upcoming event or for something job-related? Drop me a line and let's talk business.
I'm ready, willing, and able to help you (yes, YOU!) in any way I can with your business, charity, etc. in exchange for any information you can provide to me with the following: career information (careers that are in demand--particularly in Indiana); networking suggestions/job leads/college preparation(student loans,financial aid,etc.)
In closing, thank you for taking the time to read my mini-bio of sorts; I really appreciate it. I look forward to conversing with any/all of you and hope that I can be of some value to your upcoming business ventures, charities, local events, and the like.
Sincerely, Michael Rousseau

Jen Cavalcanti said… - Originally from Indiana, but my husband and I moved back up here for family, cost of living, and a better place to raise our 18 month old daughter. :) The "mediocre" weather is pretty nice when you haven't been in it for a long time. Seasons are something that we both wanted again. In South Florida it is hot, hotter, hot again, then hotter again, with a cool night a couple times a year.
