Found this gem today on a publisher's website:
------------
Proofreaders are responsible for correcting grammatical and typographical errors in our books prior to publication. The ideal candidate will have the following skills and experience:
* Prior experience proofreading copy
* Excellent attention to detail
* Ability to meet tight deadlines
* Total commitment to quality
* Exceptional knowledge of grammar
Proofreaders are paid in complimentary copies of the books they proofread. For consideration, please send your resume. . . .

Guess what? They're looking for proofreaders. Now, why would you think that is?

We may doze, but we never close.
And no more comments because Blogger seems no longer to offer the option to block spammers.
If you're a spammer, I'll be at your door shortly with your check from Publishers' Clearing House. Just give me your address, so that I can make sure you're home.
