    Really wish they would move the USS Kidd down from Baton Rouge to New Orleans. The Kidd is the most authentic Fletcher class left.

    I'm not at all an expert in that domain but it strikes me as rather limiting to have all state in a database, and always work with acid transactions. Sure, sometimes it's what you want, but acid transactions don't scale well with concurrency and are generally quite expensive. I want this as an option, but not as the only tool in my toolbox.

Some of the options include: Editorial and Writing Careers: You can work as an editor for a literary magazine, a copywriter, technical writer, proofreader, or content strategist Teaching and Education: A degree in poetry can help you land a job as a high school English teacher, a community college instructor, or a creative writing teacher Librarian and Arts Curation: Opportunities exist in libraries and arts organizations, where you may not only work with poetry books but also organize poetry-related events and programs Other Fields: Some poets also work in unrelated fields such as bartending, medicine, law, or construction Solid.

    Cruz is Canadian in the same way that BoJo is a Yank. Neither country is missing much by their leaving.
