Cheri703what type of work are you looking for skellat?21:39

Cheri703ah, ok21:39
skellatCurrently I'm waiting to hear back results on an interview I did with Voice of Russia's Washington DC bureau for a beat reporter job in DC21:39
Cheri703very cool!21:40
skellatYeah, wander around to press conferences to ask questions in English for English-speaking audiences21:40
paultagat least it's not RT ;)21:40
skellatpaultag: I believe it is the same company though this is radio-side only http://voicerussia.com21:41
paultagAhha21:41
paultagRT is actually not bad news, because they always report on stuff that makes the USA look bad21:42
skellatYeah.  Voice of Russia has no DC correspondent so it would be a new role.  It would be nice to put a USian in the slot.21:43
skellatBeyond that bit with Voice of Russia...I got nuthin'...21:44
skellatSo, what is paultag doing for the holidays?21:45
paultagnot much, coding stuff21:45
paultagyou?21:45
skellatAgain, not much21:47
paultag← currently multitasking, can't keep all the threads together right now21:47
skellatSo, do either of you have ideas for the topical IRC meetings in January?  I really don't want to lead off with The Joy of BeagleBoard-xM but we could.21:47
paultagcould talk about upcoming events, get an Ubuntu hour together or something21:48
skellatWe could21:49
skellatThe big request during the last business meeting was for something topical akin to sessions seen in ubuntu-classroom but tailored to our Ohio audience21:50
skellatCrap22:00
