some nice soul towards the base of the totem pole emailed me after seeing my links to links.net removed from my articles at zdtv.com because of a single letter from the bible belt? they recanted their links to me - a 'puter freak pornographer.
removing content is not an option.so you won't be paying me?
should i look for another job then?
"it's not just a question of links justin,i put my own rep on the line by siding with ZDTV
"it's a question of affiliation.
too bad they con't do the same.

"that might be a good idea."enough $ for a few weeksmaybe i'll try c|net.
"hold off on c|net."
one upcoming gig maybe
do i want a desk somewhere? some freelance?
it's a good thing your gravy train has endedi couldn't help myself, i had to tell the safeway woman who askd, "how are you?" i lost my job today.
you'll have to learn to fend for yourself.
if you have to be shitcanned it's best to be shitcanned by assholes.but hey buddy let's see how things shape up - maybe in a few months when we're more secure with our cable operatores, we can work something out.
i felt like someone had left me, dimly, from a distance. i felt like i had been misjudged. Why had they hired me in the first place?she spoke at length about carl and beautiful too. after i tonfessed my position, rebecca responded with a little testimony to the benefits of compromise. but they asked me to remove my content! she hadn't slept in days - she looked good for it.
What if what i am and what i have been and did before will hold me back from what i should become?

Should i take down my content to provide more flexibility of profession? or perhaps it's too late. perhaps i've ensured i have nothing but a hard and fun path before me - professional and personal blurred.

Anyways i believe in what i've done and the flexbile evolving whole of Justin's Links. to remove things would cause a whithering of some links since nothing is printed and so only alive as electricity courses through them, and those pages would in all important ways dissapear."so we'll schedule something for next weekcan i imagine removing the "mature content" from this site? i would be left with only immature content! i guess that's most of what's here as it is.
i have to believe in myself - would i want to work for someone who wouldn't want the whole package? who could possibly want the whole packeage?
but what inspires any doubt in my project here is wanting to experiment - to try TV professionalism, to not have shut that door. I would like to have my own talk show. I'm sure that if I am intended to I will. right - that convenient religio-faith hands off.
it's unfortunate that no one told me, no one took responsibility. It was up to this peon, this footsoldier, not anyone who had any power - they didn't make any attempt to communicate. and they work for a communications company! maybe even have some sort of communications degree too.
i have so much faith in myself, my surroundings. something appropriate will emerge from this
