Hi, My Name is Craigslist Jesse → themonthlychallenge.com

I just got back from my craigslist date, and it was a pretty decent time. We met up at Gin Sushi in Pasadena after work (which by the way, I wouldn’t really recommend.) Even though I got lost on the…

T Minus…Five!?! → themonthlychallenge.com

There are only five days left in January and I still have a lot to do. In the past week, I did manage to sell a wireless keyboard - 2 items down, 2 to go! But nobody really cares about the shit I’m…

Dear person bagging my groceries,

When you ask “paper or plastic?” and I reply that I’d like paper, do not treat me as if I’ve suddenly caused you a huge inconvenience. You don’t know - maybe I have lots of text books that need to be covered.

Recruiters Ruin Social Networking

Since I joined linkedin a while ago, it has done nothing but inundate me with spam from technology recruiters, despite the fact that I have not marked myself as “interested in career opportunities.” They just don’t listen. If I’m looking for a job, I’ll be looking for a job.

Today, one of those recruiters found me on Facebook. Considering I’ve already responded to this same exact person a few months ago over linkedin, I really wanted to send back a snooty message detailing how I’m not about to go to some no-name company anytime soon. However, the following was displayed below her message to me:

If you send Amy Moody Knapp a message, you will give her permission to view your list of friends, as well as your Basic, Work and Education info for one month.

So now, instead of replying directly to Amy Moody Knapp (because I don’t want her to infiltrate my personal life), I have to bitch about her in my tumblog…damn you facebook.

A Hit With the Ladies → themonthlychallenge.com

I’m becoming a bit more aware that this blog gets syndicated out to my facebook profile where my friends and my “friends” can read it. I’m not sure if they do, but just in case you were wondering…

This is an important message for the Indie 103.1 Radio Audience -

Indie 103.1 will cease broadcasting over this frequency effective immediately. Because of changes in the radio industry and the way radio audiences are measured, stations in this market are being forced to play too much Britney, Puffy and alternative music that is neither new nor cutting edge. Due to these challenges, Indie 103.1 was recently faced with only one option —- to play the corporate radio game.

We have decided not to play that game any longer. Rather than changing the sound, spirit, and soul of what has made Indie 103.1 great Indie 103.1 will bid farewell to the terrestrial airwaves and take an alternative course.

This could only be done on the Internet, a place where rules do not apply and where new music thrives; be it grunge, punk, or alternative - simply put, only the best music.

For those of you with a computer at home or at work, log on to www.indie1031.com and listen to the new Indie 103.1 - which is really the old Indie 103.1, not the version of Indie 103.1 we are removing from the broadcast airwaves.

We thank our listeners and advertisers for their support of the greatest radio station ever conceived, and look forward to continuing to deliver the famed Indie 103.1 music and spirit over the Internet to passionate music listeners around the world.
