Help!' a blog dedicated to your bad habits, lousy situations, and general self-moping. Why should you quit your day job and pursue your 17-year-old dream job of teaching kayaking in Hawaii? Answer: you won't. It's an economic crisis, people! You can't just 'bring the kids with you' anymore. You're getting those kids to college or they'll never survive.<br /><br />So, you're stuck, but you're not alone. We offer you the gift of voyeurism, brief peeks into other people's doldrums. After all, journalists shouldn't rule the information highway. They're probably not stuck.
