I have contacted Stern's network about employment. No response. I am searching every single day. Time is short now though. Currently I have forwarded all of my mail to my mom's place and I will soon be moving everything into storage.

I take it you've written to every broadcaster in the land?
Hell, Howard stern might take you on board?
There's a huge industry for digital radio etc.. can one of them get you on board on a discussion prog?
Even if you promise to stay away from politics and religion.. (though we all know that'd be a loss)
But my personal advise..
NEVER give up...
You can couchsurf (www.couchsurfing.com) for many months, there are dozens, if not 100's of willing folk here happy to put you up, store stuff etc, while you get back on your feet..
Hell, even start a kitty to buy a caravan if you must, but you're not alone, you're not at bottom, far from it, you don't live in a war torn country, you're not sick.. and god loves you.. (apparently ;-p ) more importantly, your kids do...
Big hugs man... you've helped us all...
worst case, move to London and crash at mine..
Keep us posted!!!

Reggie, do consider my option. I renew my lease in a few weeks.

Yep.. I am very well aware.. and I have applied to many of them. No responses.
I'd say I know how that feels, considering it's all that ever happens to me whenever I've applied for a job, but that'd be stretching things a bit, as I'm not in your situation and couldn't possibly imagine what it would be like. I'm just a student, it's not urgent that I have a job right now, and I have no children to look after. So I won't say I understand, because I don't.
I just wish there was more that I could do for you right now than subscribe. I have tried to spread the word about this site and your show amongst some of the more philosophically inclined at my university, but whether or not they follow up my advice I can't say.
I do think there's a lot in what you suspect about your activism keeping businesses from wanting to employ you (since they do tend to google prospective employees nowadays). Unfortunately, that's not going to change, particularly in Georgia, but I doubt you can afford to move somewhere more liberal right now.
Personally, I think you should consider that alias change that was recommended on the previous page. I can understand why you'd object, but surely it's better than going back into the military and being sent to Iraq or Afghanistan?

After years of absense, I've restarted my monthly payments (the upgrade years ago caused my old account to frizz).
I'm paying the $4.50/month.
Hope this helps.

Eh, I know I ain't been around for a while. But your site was invaluable to me once and I'm sure it's just as important to others now. I'll go gold for ya.
