1. Ted—“Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” and “Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey: Sweetness and a little goofiness are not a bad thing, dude.
2. Harker—“Bram Stoker’s Dracula”: Good guy, Victorian, romantic hero gentleman decency, personal integrity, high heroics, and respect for her counts, even against “The” Count.
3. Neo—“The Matrix”: Let her in your space, truly listen to her and heed her wise advise, and be there when she needs you to hold her up, or scoop a software virus bullet out of her heart. I don’t know about you, but I know a guy who does that everyday.
4. Jack—“Speed”: Resetting the contemporary standard of the hero, he shares her burdens, his with her and hers by him. And absolutely does not...[more at http://article.projectkeanu.com/ten.shtml]

Elance.com and Guru.com Question
hey,
maybe i'm too stressed or tired or whatever, but how the heck does that site [ELANCE.COM] work? i signed up for "courtesy" listings, but when i try to bid on something, it's telling me i'm not a member of that part and i need to sign up. is there anyway to do anything on there without paying? please explain to the dummy.
thanks
PS there are a lot of things on there that i think i could do. where's a good phone sex operator job when you need one????

Yeah, you can receive notifications and look around but to actually place a proposal bid you have to pay into at least a month's membership of that division. So if you want to be as a voice person in the voice section, you'll have to pay that section's fee, and another's if you're bidding in another section like writing, too.
Elance is kinda tricky but it's been not to bad to me, and it's where I started, but it does have its own sense of rules. I've just seriously started at Guru and I don't really remember but I think you get like ten free bids with them so you might make some money before taking a membership, but also you have fewer opportunities than a member.
I went ahead a few months back and just got a quarterly membership at Guru and Elance, expensive but LOTS more opportunities, and it's an older site with more opps and fewer rules in some things. Like erotic writing is almost always pulled at Elance but not at Guru.
But even a month's membership can be paid for, do at it or your site fees of doing business into your proposal, don't be too afraid to bid high or higher than the bid range, if you feel it's truly not high enough for all the work you'll be doing, and explain that nicely but directly in the proposal. People are cheap sometimes or just don't know or need to be reminded that good service of quality needs more cash. Be personable, profession, and make certain you read what they ask for and address those concerns in the proposal or ask for more specific info in each project's message boards--some public, some private.
