Hey... I will be in Morgantown next year..

are you a grad student at WVU? Do you like it?

Happy Birthday!

Glad to know that your rottie is still alive...

I am very envious of your new comp... I would be extraordinarily envious if I was still an avid gamer, but lately I haven't really been into playing anything. The only activities that I regularly engage in with my computer are looking at porn, illegally downloading music and movies, and writing mediocre essays for various classes; and you don't need a very powerful comp to do any of that. Still, Alienware makes some top-shelf systems; so, again, I'm envious...

Every play Counter Strike (especially the new version)? If so, you might find this funny... The Stress of CS You'll probably get it even if you haven't played CS. People like that always get on their mikes and complain about shit like "hacking", it's fun to piss them off.

I have never read any of his work; but I have a bald-headed, all-black wearing, death-metal listening, conspiracy-theory believing, anti-Islamic middle-easterner friend who has told me that I absolutely have to start doing so some time... Any suggestions as to which one I should start with?

...As for your previous journal entry: My child's voice has become hoarse from screaming at me over and over again that where we are right now is nowhere fucking close to where we planned to be, and that I need to get my ass in gear or we will just move farther and farther away from our intended destination... I'm about ready to shove a sock in his mouth...

Whoa. Did you say anti-islamic middle-easterner? That's pretty unique.

As per the reading? Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is, of course, a classic. Personally, I like Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail (letters from HST to George Stephanopolous, Clinton, etc...pretty funny). Really, just pick up anything by him and give it a couple of chapters before quitting. I assure you it will be worth the while. 'Specially if you've ever indulged in drugs and alcohol.

By the way, you're going to shove a sock in the mouth of the ethereal character in your brain? Wow, gotta let me know if that pans out (and how to do it if it does).

If any of my science teachers in grade school would've used beer to teach about acidity, perhaps I'd have paid more attention and gotten better grades... and then I could've been a science-wiz instead of a science-moron, and I could've majored in something like engineering instead of political science, which would make it easier for me to get a job after I graduate. But alas, no one ever did, and now I face this cruel world, with no knowledge of acidity, and with a worthless degree...

I was on this other website that I have a membership to recently. I was checking-out this one girl's profile, when I noticed that she had a friend who looked awful familiar... Have you had any luck with that? I certainly haven't.

Ah yes, acidity and beer is just the tip of the iceberg... Wrap your mind around this one: acidity and alkalinity are merely measures of the exchange of protons.
