Sorry, no. They only had a life expectancy of 6 months!:eek:

It was in the US, so it wasn't the Czar of Russia!

Longer life expectancy than mine... I just took a position where I see how many exstacy pills I can take without having a sezuire. My company says testing on animals is wrong.

I wanna get promoted to cough syrup tester one day.

Testing on animals if wrong! Have you ever tried putting makeup and lipstick on an animal? It's not easy! Blush and Eyeliner are the worst! Animals won't sit there for an hour while someone makes them up like a woman will!

Paint their nails and bows in the hair, yes. But animals draw the line at the rest of makeup!

Oh btw.... Was that pussy job a king? Mine is funner.

supposedly one of the most dangerous jobs in history really was being a monarch, lol.

but uh, in the us in 1800... hmm, probably would have thought logging or something related to it if it wasn't miner or some kind of factory worker

though in school I remember being told irish immigrants would often have to take the most dangerous jobs... mining, building the rail road, canals. don't recall what others there were.

This job you got to carry a gun! And, they only wanted boys from 14-16 years old and were preferably orphans!

If you have a son 14-16 or your daughter has dated a boy 14-16 years old, you know they have no fear. While else would they try half pipes on a skateboard with no helmet or pads? Gnarly Dude!

[Mayor Qumiby]

Being s minor* is dangerous only if grg or jangler are around.

[charlotte49er]

Not even soldier! The civil war (Excuse me! War of Northern Agression!)hadn't started yet.

Job only lasted 19 months and was replaced with Automation!

The Job?

Pony Express Rider!

Cut mail time from St Louis to San Francisco from 20 days to 10!, but cost $2.00! (1860's money) to mail a letter!

In 1875, a Colt Peacemaker only cost $8.00!

The job was replaced with the telegraph!

haha I wondered if it was mail carrier, but when you said 14-16, I didn't think they got anyone that young
