The power did go off for a minute or two yesterday, other then that everything has been good power-wise. The winds at night have been craaaazy though, and a friend of mine almost had her car crushed by a tree.

Merry Christmas

It's cold & sunny in Ohio. (Not to mention the shit load of snow I got).

Poision Envy, are you still under the warning?

Quote from nn12000:

Surprised that power hasn't been completely knocked out down there or something due to the winds, since Cali doesn't usually get this kind of weather.

A place I lived a couple years ago would lose power if someone's sprinklers were turned up to high. True story. I think that place might have lost power for a month in this rain. :v

But The only issue I've had so far is the crazy rain knocked out my Direct TV for a little bit and that was cell phone disrupting conditions too so that was neat.

Awesome. I'd totally love to fuck it up for everyone there. Just randomly go out and turn on the sprinklers at whatever time of the year. Soon the city would take my water away. :D

On a not-weather related note, I went to a college today and took a placement test. I got a 38 on math (never liked it anyways), an 87 in Reading, and a 95 in writing. I want to major in Computer Science too, but now I'm not so sure. :\

Guess maybe I should finish, then publish my stories, eh?

computer science has little to do with the kind of math that was probably on that test. also computer science has nothing to do with programming so if you like programming then just suffer through it. it's what i did and now i'm a programmer and i love it.

funnily enough, i thought i didn't want to be a programmer, but now i'm a programmer too and love it.
as a computer science major i can tell you that nate's right about that sort of math not having much to do with cs. however, as a cs major you may have to take certain math classes (calculus, statistics, and other low level stuff). for example all cs majors at my school also complete a minor in math as part of their degree requirements.

It's cold and sunny here in Maryland. It's the most boring kind of weather there is if you ask me...

heh, i hear that might change tonight, at least on the west side of the bay. go sleet all night. :)

Oh on the topic of computer science and stuff, I'm really into 3D modeling, but I wish I had the time and patience for programming. I took a class over the summer two years ago, learned some Java stuff and I liked it. This last summer though I took a 3D modeling class and loved it a lot.

No, an hour or two afterward the weather people reported it as a false warning.

OK - new topic, new post.

My cousin is in the hospital with drug-resistant staph. She's a meth addict and picked at her face so much that she had sores, one of them became infected. Her whole face and neck are swollen, and they are down to just one last IV-antibiotic to try (the others aren't working). She's only 26 years old. The doctors say that if the last antibiotic doesn't help that she might not make it. My whole family is freaking out right now.

All you can do now is offer her words of comfort and say that you're all there for her...
I hope your cousin makes it out fine.

If you guys would stop wasting so much time writing silent (and therefore useless) letters, then you might have more time for dental hygiene.

TheGreenManalishi

2010-01-23 02:49:58 pm

Oh yeah, and that 'i' and last 'e' in 'hygiene' are so neccesary.

I think our spellings are more like transcriptions of archaic pronunciations, and also correct.

Most of these letters would change a word's pronounciation if removed.

Believe it or not that's actually a floppy disk.

I think we need a new topic because all we do is bitch about each others grammar.

Like this:

"After it cut to black, it stayed like that until the 6th minute, before going back into Mickey walking. The sound was different this time. It was a murmur. It wasn't a language, but more like a gurgled cry. As the noise got more indistinguishable and loud over the next minute, the picture began to get weird. The sidewalk started to go in directions that seemed impossible based on the physics of Mickeys walking. And the dismal face of the mouse was slowly curling into a smirk. On the 7th minute, the murmur turned into a bloodcurdling scream (the kind of scream painful to hear) and the picture was getting more obscure. Colors were happening that shouldn't have been possible at the time. Mickey face began to fall apart. his eyes rolled on the bottom of his chin like two marbles in a fishbowl, and his curled smile was pointing upward on the left side of his face. The buildings became rubble floating in midair and the sidewalk was still impossibly navigating in warped directions, a few seeming inconcievable with what we, as humans, know about direction. Mr. Maltin got disturbed and left the room, sending an employee to finish the video and take notes of everything happening up until the last second, and afterward immediately store the disc of the cartoon into the vault. This distorted screaming lasted until 8 minutes and a few seconds in, and then it abruptly cuts to the mickey mouse face at the credits of the end of every video with what sounded like a broken music box playing in the backround. This happened for about 30 seconds, and whatever was in that remaining 30 seconds I heaven't been able to get a sliver of information. From a security guard working under me who was making rounds outside of that room, I was told that after the last frame, the employee stumbled out of the room with pale skin saying "We do not know true fear" 7 times before speedily taking the guards pistol and offing himself on the spot. The thing I could get out of Leonard Maltin was that the last frame was a piece of russian text that roughly said "the sights of hell bring its viewers back in". As far as I know, no one else has seen it, but there have been dozens of attempts at getting the file on rapidshare by employees inside the studios, all of whom have been promptly terminated of their jobs. Whether it got online or not is up for debate, but if rumors serve me right, it's online somewhere under "suicidemouse.avi". If you ever find a copy of the film, I want you to never view it, and to contact me by phone immediately, regardless of the time. When a Disney Death is covered up as well as this, it means this has to be something huge.

Get back at me,

It's this big thing that sprouted from 4chan, probably nothing but i wouldn't be surprised if it does exist. Knowing Disney and all.
