Sorry about the lack of a sleep deprevation induced update last night. I tried,
I really did, but I overshot the sleep deprived feeling and just went straight
to the sleep feeling. So I turned in early (2 AM is early right?)
and slept almost 12 hours. Yes, not having class till 4 does pay off.
HOWEVER, I am in a alcohol-like induced state at the moment (though I don't
drink alcohol), which is remarkably simliar to sleep-deprevation state. Yes, I
think my brain just produces it naturally or something. I really am that
amazing. But in some what interesting news, one of my best friends has scored
higher on the nerd test than I did. I never knew she had it in her. So my
congratulations goes out to Jenny, for being the nerd I wish I could be.
The effort to fight piracy has took what Microsoft does best, and
created a CD that crashes your computer
when you try to play it in the CD-ROM drive. It's a Celine Dion CD, so while her
heart may gone on, your computer will not (I can't take credit for that line,
it was on a message board). So far
however it's only being used in European countries, hence no one in America
cares yet.
In other things most American's dont' care about, SETI (the Search
for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence (sounds important doesn't it?)) is looking at
the most promising ga
ussians for further study in hopes of finding intelligent life in space. And
yes, I do help by crunching SETI packets every night. The real fun
starts though when we finally make contact. Who exactly gets the opportunity to
offend them first?
I also finally figured out the crazy
scheme that the Library of Congress, and the UF libraries, use to keept track of
their books. It was so much simpler in elementary school, as were the books.
Curious George, Bernstein Bears, Boxcar Chilren, Babysitters Club (er uh, I
didn't read that last series, no....), Mrs. Piggle Wiggle, ahhh, those were the
days.
Frisbee is fun.
The Reitz is having a Dance Dance Revolution tourny for the DDR Gators (the
local UF team) on April 27th. So mark your calenders boys and girls and come out
at noon to see the best players at UF tear it up on the DDR machine. There is
also quite a debate about whether playing DDR attracts girls or not. The fact
that in a year and a half of playing, the only females who you could say "hit"
(she said I looked like a Backstreet Boy while dancing) on me are over the age
of 40, I'm inclined to believe it doesn't. However, a very good friend of mine
(who plays DDR herself) told me that it would work, and her being a girl, I'm
inclined to believe her. Apparently girls love guys who can dance, but then the
debate rages on whether playing DDR could really be considered dancing, or just
looking stupid on a videogame machine. And speaking of dancing, I want to learn
how to ballroom dance. It looks fun.
