Yeah, it figures that now that I am married I'd find out I have family connections (and better still: the non-inbreeding kind) to Miss Hooters International. :(
Why does it always seem to happen like that?

The brothers are right when they say bros before hoes, booty before marriage.

Why do all part-time jobs suck so much? I've worked in a range of places ever since 10th grade; KFC, Blockbuster, a dry cleaners, and Radioshack. They all pay you pebbles and they treat you like crap.

Back in High School, it was 'ok' because all you needed was allowance money basically. To buy things like shoes, clothes, mp3 players, etc. In College though, you have other shit to worry about. Things like cell phones bills, gas, car repairs, books, debts, loans, etc. etc.

With all this crap to pay for, I can never seem to save up any money. I finally got a job that pays really really well and I'm 80% sure I'm going to lose it.

Summers go by and I get to save zilch! Is this curse just on me?

Also, do any of you know of high paying part-time jobs?
I dont know if its " highly paid " but a comfortable job which a friend of mine is doing (and im going to apply for) is the night shift at a youth hostel reception. Its dead in the last few hours, you get to eat food, drink coffe and surf on the internet. and go on this forum. and get paid for it.

Great American writer. Wrote On The Rode, a masterpiece about finding oneself through travel.

On The Road isn't easy to read if English isn't your first language though. Not so much because of what Kerouac writes, but because of the fact he never used paragraphs (I only read the original version). It's always a tad harder to read a book in a foreign language and if writers start pulling stuff like that, it can be quite annoying.

You should stick to the revised editions. You run into issues with Fitzgerald as well.
