Ever since Kerry at Clue Wagon stopped doing Tales of the Clue Free, I’ve been sad and looking for a replacement. I mean, I want to hear about Clue Free candidates without having to, you know, start recruiting again.

In Sand Land, this signifies to the an employer that you are a veritable expert in MS Word – sticking to one font is the hallmark of the novice who is ignorant of the fact that multiple fonts exist. Discerning use of the Comic Sans font is a sure fire way to get yourself noticed.

I will dutifully warn that there are some words which I would squidlip-ify. But, I doubt that warning will deter anyone other than my mother.
