I'd just love to have a job at a think tank. It seems like every day I'm off across the web and whatever resources I have making connections between subjects and hatching ideas that I never seem to have the time to follow. The way I figure it, why shouldn't I post those paths and ideas that I think might be put to practical use by someone else, an inventor, a researcher, a grant writer, etc.
if you like the idea of patronizing Brit artists and designers and small manufacturers of all kinds of things (jewelry, bags, accessories, clothing, homeware, garden, natural products, baby things, and collector's toys, so far), check out Where Do I (www.wheredoi.co.uk).

I'm one of those people that temp agencies, and ordinary employment interviewers, don't know what the heck to do with. I have a Ph.D. in biochemistry, which is still an interest, but I don't want to do the kind of work I did in that area ever again. Besides, I left it 15 years ago. I then worked in publishing as a production editor, and then freelance copy edited and proofread. But that was by hand, in the US (while I now live in England), and I don't yet know Quark. Then I got a degree in textile design and worked for a fashion company. None of these skills are apparently of any use in finding work in Norwich, UK, at the age of 57, so I'm working a very boring office job three days a week. Have a suggestion? Please speak up.
