They also have a period of time to decide if they want to join the Church, up to ten years and during that time they do no have to conform to Amish rules. They have to freely join the Church and until they do they get to party and use any technology they want.
Our Amish dude is around our age, has 9 daughters and 5 sons. The Amish kids around here have been known to pimp out their buggies with sound systems and LED lights. It's kind of funny.

Hey Pleco @Plecasso. I was just thinking of you and plastic food. And it reminded me of when my friend and sister in law (same person, and in that order) had just started working at a bakery and accidentally sold someone a cardboard display cake for some event. They were not happy.
Anyway so I thought I'd share. The story, not the cake. I hope you got some work done and real food, eventually.

I know how they feel, every time I go buy a pizza at Little Caesar's they sell me a cardboard one instead.

Wasn't able to get much work done because I went to get a haircut today.

"Sorry, we do not need your participation at this time...

Too many players are assigned in this game and unfortunately you were not chosen as a result of random selection.

You will receive the basic reward and are eligible to play this game again. Please feel free to work on our other HITs."
This brings me to $6 total in "we don't want you" money from Yale. :bode:

Guess it's quitting time for me. Good night everyone!

Today's Projected Earnings: $46.67 + Bonuses: $0.51 = $47.18
