May. 29th, 2002 09:09 amHuh. Well, it looks like we're looking for a tech writer. Huh. I'm not qualified, but I know some of you are. You know where to go. It's under software development, in case you're interested.
Yesterday they were asking around for people who knew French and I said, "Hey, I know some French." A lady called me up and asked me some questions and then said something to me in rapid fire French and I was like, "Ummmmmmm. Where did I what? I caught that much." They gave me things to translate. I read French really well. I don't speak it or write it very well at all. I think that's because that how I learned French. We read tons of things. We wrote a little bit and we spoke very little. Or maybe that's just how my brain works with languages. I don't know.
Anyway... I need to translate things now.
Poor Aquaman. No one likes him.

Date: 2002-05-29 09:25 am (UTC)"Hello, Fish."
"Hello, Aquaman!"
"Have you seen any crimes today, fish?"
"Hello, Aquaman!"
(Fish have a memory of 3 seconds.)

Date: 2002-05-29 10:09 am (UTC)My brother once wrote a lovely little short story about a superhero department store... Lex Luthor working behind the counter as part of a work-release program (and he gets an employee discount on these lovely green jewelry); Silver Surfer was there getting a new pair of jams (and he'd taken one too many hits off the cosmic bong); the Punisher was working security....
Poor Aquaman was trying to buy a pair of green speedos, and all his credit cards had been declined. It was perfect.
