Man, can't wait, can't wait.
I've been saving up for this trip for like two years. Almost all of my money from work last year went to the plane ticket.
haha, I'll be up there too (June 6th - June 21st)
I'll be in the Alps (Austria, Switzerland) the whole time though, if you're willing to search. Hit me up and maybe we can go yodeling!
Heh, nice. As tempting as that sounds, I'm not sure my teacher would go for "I'm going to meet some guy I met online".
And yeah, the mission looks awesome so far. I've been following with interest too, and I'm glad to see that they misjudged how difficult it would be to get started digging.

Unless I put my laptop up against the front wall, in which case I can just barely pick up a signal from across the street.Great place, though. Thanks to a little bit of luck, I managed to snag a one-bedroom instead of the studio I was originally taking. It's only $15 more a month, too. Turns out that the guy who was gonna take this apartment bailed at the last minute, so I quickly swooped in and took it. Of course, it's underfurnished, but I'm working on that. Still need a couch, a desk, and a rug for the living room would be nice.
Did you even know that you were banned? Or did I miss out on something yesterday?
Yeah, I knew I was banned - happened the morning I was moving. Wasn't until yesterday that I figured out I could even occasionally connect to the Internet by putting my laptop up against the outer wall and stealing it from across the street. I feel I kinda cheated the ban on account of not having any Internet access at all.
Oh well... Oh, and my phone started mysteriously working again on Wednesday, too. No explanation, just suddenly I could make calls again. Which is good - the horrors of lack of Internet are nothing compared to the horrors of not having a phone line.
glad to hear that your phone is working again.
Kill Bill is on SpikeTV right now... Anyone know of a decent katana to get for cheap?
Rock_nog, look on the bright side. You got banned, and it didn't even affect you at all. That's something to be happy about.
Ha, I just realized that the Internet connection I'm stealing from across the street is from a church. Don't know why it took so long - there's a big-ass church across the street, and the connection's name was "sanctuary2"... Oh well, makes my recent anti-God posts all that much more amusing.
Stealing internet from a chruch and using it to post anti-God posts. I'm sorry, but that's so ironic that it's funny. 😃
Glad you appreciated it, russadwan. I was afraid you'd overreact or something.
Good god, I swear... It's come to my recent attention that I have four younger sisters and a younger cousin over the age of 18, and two of those sisters are over the age of 21. Wow... that just makes me feel old.

I have to find it particularly funny as well. It would be even funnier if you mentioned it during that time when you're supposed to confess stuff... whatever it's called...
To anyone following my router troubles, I think (again) that I finally fixed it. I simply uninstalled Linksys EasyLink Advisor and it works. [strike]Sure, my SSID is "linksys" and I have absolutely no security, but I couldn't care less.[/strike] The Wii works, the computer works... it's all good.
Oh, and lol.
I actually thought it would be funny if he was struck by lightning while accessing the connection.

Since when is customer service helpful?

Nintendo's repair service was pretty good. :P the guy I got a hold of was really good about it. Provided all the info I needed and I was done in no time.
Since never
you should install linux on that router lol. There's nothing like a car accident in the drive thru >_>
Got a new external hard drive. Now I can finally put all the games I have on since DO wouldn't let me until I did. Wish I could find my Starcraft cds. That was gonna be the first thing I put on. :sweat: Guess I'll look for them later. :kitty:
Congrats on the external drive!
...god...
*shivering* one more month until Renassaince Faire...
Man, I'm not gonna make it...
I'm excited! I only have two days left of school! I can almost hear summer calling!
russadwan wrote:Congrats on the external drive!
Thanks! The drive's got 250 gb of space so I'll won't have to worry about space issues for quite a while.
I recently discovered a song from a group in europe that broke up a few years ago. I came across the song when I was watching "Attack of the Evil TV" parts 1 and 2 on newgrounds. The song (Dragostea din Tei) is highly addictive and I can't get it out of my head since first hearing it.
I also was going through random stuff on amazon.com when I came across a statue of a dragon from Dragon Quest. It looks sweet. Anyways, I've got random enemies to kill. :kitty:

oh screw you young schoolkids and your summer breaks! I gotta go look for a job now! no summer break!
And I just started summer school. So weird to be in an undergrad class again. Reminds me of those dreams where I find myself back in high school.

All you kiddies love it while you still can. I started working over the summer at age 15, then worked from then on...so yeah. Fucking fuckers with your extended childhoods.

I second what Anthony said. I'm going to be busy this summer but it's nothing new or unusual for me. You get used to it. And personally, I kind of like it... now if I take long extended vacations from work or school I feel like I'm wasting time. There's rent to pay and food to buy and lots of things to learn, so if I'm not studying, making money, or doing something fun so that I can later learn and make money more efficiently... I feel like I'm wasting time.

So I shaved my beard today finally. After about 7 weeks. I feel naked. So naked.
Then why did you shave it?
