So...

Perhaps I should have wrapped tags around the entire post. Speaking of which, I need to figure out how to convey sarcasm via text.

The best way, however may be with a 😉 smiley and numerous J/k's.

So, I don't know why, but I'm suddenly a fan of this band from the 80's called Huey Lewis & The News. Very brash, yet very good. They have some great stuff...

In other news, the most boring final exams in the world finished today.
Health Class: We could use all of our notes and the book.
Government: No final.
Engineering: Always more of a practical test, so the final is just kinda "answer these easy questions and let's get back to work"
Organic Chem: Only one even mildly challenging.

Not that I'm complaining, but the two hours of time spent each doing nothing was boring.

In view of all the religious discussion that's been springing up lately, I thought I should mention...

I subscribe to traditional Atheist views regarding the subject of a higher power. But there is one twist. I firmly believe that if a squirrel crosses your path, it is a sign of good luck.

Here's to hoping you'll be fortunate enough to see a squirrel cross your path.

Engineering in high school? God I hate my school. We just ended the first week the fourth term, so it'll be eight weeks until we take finals. Maybe seven...

...I know what the thread of the day is going to be about...

What the hell, man? Squirrels are rats with wings, without the wings. Wait, that would make 'em rats. Scratch that - squirrels are rats with bushy tails. They do nothing productive, they just sit there and try to steal your food. And as cute as they are, don't ever come between a squirrel and his food, because he will rip your face off.

Chickens can be dangerous too. My uncle's raising a bunch of them for cockfighting, and they can be vicious. The one he's using for breeding right now is a Saigon, which is so tough that its eggs cost around 50-100 dollars each. From what I've heard about it, the Saigon fights for hours without encouragement, is barely fazed by anything short of a fatal wound, and once its opponent is down, it finishes things by eating the other chicken's face. I'm half-considering getting one instead of a guard dog. Would make for a more amusing sign.

Yeah, they do that for a couple of reasons.

1. You act like an idiot on the boards.
2. You say something stupid.
3. They are just fucking with you.

In any of the cases, you seem like a decent member now, so you should not have any issues.

Okay, two different threads of conversation here. Time to merge them!

So, what do you think was the best post made by a squirrel, and do you think the chickens ever resent the fact that they can't use chatrooms?

AGN Chatrooom is barren. It mainly consists of people leaving the channel, joining it, pinging out, peering, and occasionally one of 5 people in there say something, and every once in a while Zaphod and Breaker start a small conversation.

At the time of this post there are 4 people in there: Myself, MrCow, Kryten, and Shadowblazer.

This is essentially true. I've popped in from time to time but never really said much. But since so many people are interested in it, if you guys all come in at the same time, we can work on a revival =)
