(NOTE:  I am posting this to a diverse set of newsgroups to
try to catch someone going on sabbatical, extended vacation,
or suchlike in the next few months).

     A friend of mine would like to relocate to New England after
having spent the last 8 years in San Francisco (besides being
interested in a change of scenery, she's also looking for some
straight guys to date!).  She has some money saved up, but not
a lot.  She needs an inexpensive place to live and/or a job to
tide her through 'til she finds something more permanent.

     Does anyone out there in netland taking a sabbatical or long
vacation (a couple months to a year) need a housesitter?

     She is very capable and versatile (i.e. is very intelligent
and meticulous in her work and has acquired a large repertoire of
of diverse skills in 8 years of selective "temping" with Kelly
services).  She would be a good research assistant or executive
secretary, but would be interested in almost any kind of job.

     She is not on the net, so send e-mail to me.  In fact, send
Snail mail to me, too, and I will forward it to her.  Thanks
in advance.

That was very funny, although a bit long.

This was the first joke on this group that I had not seen before.

The depths to which people will sink to get a laugh.  Personally, I didn't
find it very funny at all.
