I'm not sure about Canada, but in the Washington state, anyone under 16 is not allowed to work. You know what that means? that means we have to go do the lame jobs like mowing lawns, throwing newspapers, and door-to-door sales. LAME! So what else can we do that can even _pay_ us? I've tried to find a job that can pay _at least_ 7.50/hour for a 13-year old on summer vacation, but to no avail. So what's my next solution? Coding HTML/Java/Euphoria, and selling my results. You know what I heard? They're selling custom databases for 300$. <nudge, nudge>...
