No college paper. Don't worry Dodge, I'm going to be a sports journalist seen as I can't articulate well enough to be a social commentator.

You missed the joke too.

I was going to be a sports journalist until I realised I might have to miss the odd Pats game. Seriously

Ahhhh, good old america, land of the dreams, if it wasnt that I was going to guess Insurance, "well, what do you do Sir?!" "Me, I sell Insurance"
You must be affected by the lack of funds from the Fund Banks, the whole sub-prime thing I heard was drying up a lot of brokers business due to lack of money coming through to the lending organisations?! Its funny I was out at a ( Irish )wedding in Italy a couple of months ago, and a lad who lives in san diego ( was on a scholarship to the states for soccer many years ago ) has his own business in the same area, but he said business was so dry that he and his missus decided pack up for a month and to come over to "Europe" as nothing at all was happening.....


That would have been funny, you are not allowed to read my articles cos you are only an armchair supporter. I am more EL than you \_/

Oh indeed, but, we're not as bad as California, yet. Luckily, sub-prime was/is only a small part of of my business. The problem is that the sub-prime fallout is rolling over and is having a serious impact on all types of lending.

Oddly enough sports journalist was my dream job for a while too. Until I realised I'd most likely end up covering schoolboy football for the Wexford People for about 20 years.

Obvious dream like most young lads was professional sport star, wasn't fussed whether it was football, darts or even GAA.
Other one was to take over the world, and I'm now on the first step of that ladder having ensconced myself in the civil service. (Insert evil laugh here).

Ya I know, reigns being tigthened all over the shop, to ensure it doesnt happen again and in any other sector. It always happens in america and then they bring in new directives/regulations to make it more rigid and difficult, hence why london is becoming a hub.

You're actually on level 4. Its in the handbook you were given on the first day. Towards the back, just after "how to use the internet fully" and just before "how to answer claims that all civil servants are lazy good for nothing waste of tax payers money"
