Has anyone read the book "Fahrenheit 451"? I'm going to read it for my English class this semester. It looks like an interesting story...

I just got promoted from "Newbie" to "Junior," and decided to take advantage of this occasion by doing the happy dance.   :dance:  :thrilled:  :clap:  :rofl:

We now return you to regularly scheduled programming.  :wave:
That happened to me around my 50th post.

Sooner or later you'll be up to 100 (Full), 250 (Senior), 500 (Hero) and 1000 (Ultimate). Congrats, btw.

I must say... Google Voice is the best thing ever invented (free calls to the whole US ftw).

my goal for going to school was to slack and sleep

Haha same... I'm used to sleeping at 1 am in a school night, feel unusually refreshed the next morning, not do my work, and slacking. Not sure how I ended up with a 3.8 GPA though : rofl:

Have fun slacking in college...your results won't be as englightening ;).  You might want to consider trying. :P

If I would have known how much (my) high school was NOT going to prepare me for college, I would not have put in as much effort as I did.

I don't have a Gmail account, so I can't use it. :(

For those who use Hotmail.. has anyone gotten a lot of spam and scam emails from Africa? I've been getting a lot of those lately, and it's getting on my nerves. As I use my hotmail for blog comments, I might have to switch to Gmail.

My high school life was about drama.  :wacko: Glad I left that behind.

I agree with Kyle on this, I slacked my first semester in college...ended up with a 2.6 GPA, and realized that I should probably put more effort into it, and by the end of the spring semester I brought it up to a 3.2.

Google Chrome 6 is now out today. I just updated it earlier. Now all I have to do is wait for Firefox 4 to come out later in November.  And this is my 50th post! :dance:

People these days... thinking that we're the ones talking crap. Besides, it's an old thread. Why talk about it now? That blog has  :censored: all over it. Thank goodness the people commented on it disagree with him...or maybe it's you guys? :P
