28 juillet 2008Ref: 11521-41
-->CHERCHE PERSONNEL POUR CASTRATION MAIS - âge 16 ans révolu, pas de camping possible, période 20 août et plus, 7km de Pamiers, direction Belpech. Tél. 05.61.67.47.98 le soir


Every town in the States has some sort of weekly advertising newspaper, listing garage sales, selling the same junk week after week, used cars, houses and apartments for rent, and a few odd jobs. In Moab it's called the Ad-Vertiser. In the Ariege, we faithfully read Le 09 to find out where the vide greniers, fetes, and marche nocturnes will be. But I find myself browsing through the other listings just to practice my reading skills. I couldn't pass this one up. (It is called "Le 09" because 09 refers to the Ariege's alphabetical order in the queue of departments of France.)


I'm not exactly certain what the job description reads for a "corn castrator"; Doug thinks they are going to de-tastle corn (the male flower of the corn plant). You must be 16, no camping on site, beginning August 20th.So, any of you farmer-types out there....fill us in. Otherwise, our imaginations are running wild. And if anyone's interested, I can get them an application.
