Dear Blog Guy,
I need a career change. What do you advise?
Job-Seeker

Well, Job-Seeker, it so happens there is good money to be made in the rapidly expanding new field of threading snakes through your nose. The guy in this picture gets to hang out with big-name stars, while bringing pleasure to millions of fans.

A number of schools offer courses in nose snake-threading. A few tips from the professionals:

– Don’t use a cobra, because that hooded part just slows you down.
– Don’t use a rattlesnake - the noise, very irritating.
– If you sneeze a lot during hay fever season, you may want to warn the people in the front row.
