To add to what A Polite Parrot has posted: try this idea, previously posted by the member Darnell: -------------------- CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: Each city has a chamber of commerce. Find it. Once you find it - talk with the secretary - tell her you want a schedule of events and let her know you'd like to attend. Then - go in person to the Chamber of Commerce Office - talk with the President of the Chamber, tell him/her you want to volunteer at several of their events. Attendees at chamber events are business owners and sales geeks, all looking for new business. It usually is an informal-enough gathering where you can approach people and talk with them. Now, the cool thing about being a volunteer there - is that you will be talking to everyone at least once - you might be at the reception table, you might be at the greeters' table, you might help to run the audio/video system - whatever - but - the point is that you can meet everyone there, face to face. Attend 2 or 3 of these, and folk remember you. When folk remember you, they will remember you are seeking employment and will consider you, because you're just not some name on a piece of paper - they met you at a chamber event and know that you were volunteering, helping out the chamber. Go Get Em, and Good Luck! PS - live in a really small town? go to the biggest town that's within 15 miles of your house.

Democrats Explain Trump Was Going To Be Hitler During His First Term, But He Forgot U.S. — Democrats have warned that if elected a second time, Donald Trump will be an evil dictator just like Adolf Hitler. When asked why Trump didn't become Hitler during his first term, Democrats explained that he simply forgot. "Trump meant to be Hitler, but he forgot," explained Vice President Harris in a press conference at the White House. "Being Hitler just totally slipped his mind. Make no mistake, if Trump is elected again, he absolutely plans to turn into Hitler and probably will write himself a reminder this time."

'You're At The Wrong Town Hall,' Snaps Kamala At Citizen Trying To Ask Her A Question [...] According to Maria Shriver, the facilitator at the town hall, Kamala's outburst was provoked by an ordinary, everyday citizen who got up to ask Kamala how she would respond to the problems with the US economy. "I think you're at the wrong town hall," Kamala reportedly fired back at the citizen as several Kamala staffers came to escort the poor woman out of the building. "You really ought to be at the town hall down the street, holistically. That wasn't one of the pre-approved questions you can ask me — try asking Trump instead! HAHAHAHA!"

Wella, WELLA! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BREAKING: Tulsi Gabbard Joins the Republican Party Two years ago, Tulsi Gabbard, the former Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii and one-time Democratic presidential candidate, made waves by announcing her departure from the Democratic Party and became an independent. At the time, I was skeptical that she'd ever join the GOP, but on Tuesday, she finally took the next step and became a Republican. "And it is because of my love for our country, and specifically because of the leadership that President Trump has brought to transform the Republican party and bring it back to the party of the people and the party of peace, that I'm proud to stand here with you today, President Trump, and announce that I'm joining the Republican Party," she said at Trump's rally in North Carolina. "I'm joining the party of the people, the party of equality, the party that was founded to fight against and end slavery in this country. It is the party of commonsense, and the party that is led by a president who has the courage and strength to fight for peace."

It's Wednesday already, and time for our highly effective, upvote-worthy Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== A DAY ON THE FARM A farmer drove to a neighbor's farmhouse and knocked on the door. A boy, age 9, opened the door. "Is your dad or mom home?" asked the farmer. "No; they went to town," said the boy. "How about your brother, Howard? Is he here?" "No; he went with Mom and Dad." The farmer stood there for a few seconds, shifting from one foot to the other, mumbling to himself, when the young boy said, "I know where all the tools are, if you want to borrow one, or I can give Dad a message." "Well," said the farmer uncomfortably, "I really want to talk to your Dad about your brother Howard getting my daughter Suzy pregnant!" The boy thought for a moment, then said, "You’ll have to talk to my Dad about that. I know he charges $50 for the bulls and $15 for the boars, but I have no idea how much he charges for Howard."

This is some description! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Socialism strikes again: Cubans plunged into blackouts As leftists continue to praise communist Cuba, or at least maintain a polite silence, life is getting extraordinarily bad in the Castroite communist socialist island paradise. Since Friday, it's blackouts, on and off, across the island, except for in the wealthy tourist hotels, where Cubans are beaten by government thugs if they dare enter. Oh, and you can bet the party elites, out on their yachts or in wealthy enclaves hidden away from the locals and surrounded by armed guards, have gotten their electricity, too. They get it off the grid, which has collapsed. Yoani Sanchez, the indefatigable dissident observer of Cuba, writing from inside Cuba, put this description out: [...] https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/10/socialism_strikes_again_cubans_plunged_into_blackouts.html

There's a reason Trump is campaigning in NYC: He might win there Yesterday, Donald Trump joined Fox News host Lawrence Jones at a Bronx barbershop. Trump, a Queens native who spent a lot of time on construction sites, was clearly at home among these guys in a way that Kamala and Walz never could be. (JD Vance would be at home there, too.) There was no fakery. Trump may be a billionaire, but these are his people—and because Trump is real, he understood the pain the barber's hyper-inflated energy bills are causing him. That pain and Trump's recognition explains why he's campaigning in New York, a place that ought to be a no-win for a Republican. The last time a Republican won New York state was during the Reagan revolution. Trump, though, may be trying to break that dismal Republican record.
