College-ish
Before I went to Salt Lake, I spent a week in a class at the USDA Grad School called "Human Resources for Administrative Professionals." Coupled with "Processing Personnel Actions," my college transcript is lookin' real pretty.

Oh, well. I have been picking up a few bits of pieces of useful knowledge. This a real place:
China Lake is a small town in the southern California desert, fifty miles from the nearest interstate or railroad. The townspeople are a close knit community, most of whom diligently research ways to make the Sidewinder air-to-air missile more deadly.

China Lake is famous among government payroll specialists for being the first government facility to try something called "pay banding" back in 1980. That's more fame than you might think. It's just not the kind that does anything for the tourist trade.
Who says you never learn anything useful working in Human Resources?

A few months ago there was a decently large celebration to celebrate the opening of an Olive Garden.

RIP the great Don Knotts of Steve Allen tonight show fame and of course the classic Barney Fife role (better than Insp. Closeau). By the way, he was a West Virginian. - UT Barney lover

Also available on the web (www.ridgenet.net/clmf/clmf/secret.html): a video about China Lake called "Secret City" which won the first place award at the 1995 International Video Competition from the Society for Technical Communication. - UT "techie"?

Is that a resturant called "The Olive Garden" or an actual olive garden? - UT Olive Lover

you learn that you can accept but don't have to inquire about the validity of a social security number unless someone tells you its fake than you find out that the young latino male is either really a 66 year old white woman living in ohio or he faked his card.
