Meh. I moved to Indy in 1988 and it most certainly lacked a lot of cultural diversity back then. In 1988, I believe the Black population was around 10% and now it's over 25% I think. Plus, you have a very strong Latin influence here, among others....

Nah, this ain't where the problem lies. And, if anyone is being put down, it is the average, American woman.

I would venture to guess that every single runway model has a fast metabolism and is a natural ectomorph or they wouldn't be up there.

I guess we differ on our definitions on what is 'rare'. It's like, some people think diamonds are rare because that was/is the status quo thing to say; but we know that they are not. But, people still have the belief that diamonds are "precious" t...

Not the women, the industry itself. Although, I suspect most of these models are pretentious themselves so I guess what I said applies.

I wonder if I could pay Eunice to promote me since I'm too lazy to self-promote?

Thin women are "rare and unique"? Since when? They use thin women because they are pretentious, self-serving, and only care about presenting a false-image of what a "real" woman should look like/be like. How exactly is it inspirational? I gotta know.

Paul, have you thought about reaching out to the folks on Yelp.com? Seems to be a really active site for foodies. http://www.yelp.com/indianapolis-in

Does it make you feel better about yourself to take cheap shots at people whom you don't even know? If I had moderator powers, you would be gone. Finito. Banned IP address, or whatever I had to do. Your negativity is nauseating.

I started my undergrad in earnest about eight years after HS. I had a family, worked full-time (plus overtime) and was full of doubt. I wanted an education more than anything, but had no idea if I could do the work, was smart enough, or could cope...

Thank you for this, Steve. I will definitely look into it. I've already checked out the website some; seems feasible at the least.

Tom, I've read many of your posts on SI and you are undoubtedly on-the-ball, well-rounded, and highly intelligent (feel free to gloat a bit). Am I really gonna have to take ENG/MATH/HIST - 101??? Can't I bribe someone so that I don't have to take ...

Yeah, my best friend has a 4-year degree in Gen-ed from I.U. He is now in the entertainment business in L.A. making really good money. I'm being a bit sarcastic of course. I don't know if taking a bunch of different courses in different areas is s...

Again, I'm not gonna lie, I am not looking forward to possibly having to take refresher math, english, and whatever other "general education" classes. Having to pay for them will make it ultra-excruciating, too. I just want to take the classes tha...

What is your greatest strength?
Hardworking, perseverant, problem-solver, good at brainstorming ideas.
What are you working on?
Currently, I'm working for the Indiana Department of Revenue but it is only a seasonal position (ends around June of '09, but could possibly be extended longer is what I'm told.) so that is part of the reason I am here--i.e. to network with the great minds of Indiana in the hopes that it will lead to a full-time employment opportunity in the near future.

small company
What is your Job Title
Staffer
What is your alma mater?
no college
Why join Smaller Indiana? What are you hoping to experience here ?
I'm still trying to figure out how I had not come across this site sooner considering how much time I spend online. Anyways, I've been out of the networking loop for too long so I joined this site to make up for lost time. So far, I think it's great and it looks to be a very valuable tool to all those involved.

I'm hoping to experience the synergistic effect of all the great minds on this site, basically. I help you, you help me. You need another volunteer for a particular upcoming event or for something job-related? Drop me a line and let's talk business.

I'm ready, willing, and able to help you (yes, YOU!) in any way I can with your business, charity, etc. in exchange for any information you can provide to me with the following: career information (careers that are in demand--particularly in Indiana); networking suggestions/job leads/college preparation(student loans,financial aid,etc.)

In closing, thank you for taking the time to read my mini-bio of sorts; I really appreciate it. I look forward to conversing with any/all of you and hope that I can be of some value to your upcoming business ventures, charities, local events, and the like.

Sincerely, Michael Rousseau

Feel free to contact via this site or on my personal e-mail address below. Thanks.

Originally from Indiana, but my husband and I moved back up here for family, cost of living, and a better place to raise our 18 month old daughter. :) The "mediocre" weather is pretty nice when you haven't been in it for a long time. Seasons are something that we both wanted again. In South Florida it is hot, hotter, hot again, then hotter again, with a cool night a couple times a year.

Do you need my help as an agent?

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.
