Probably won't, really. It's gonna hug the coastline through Tuesday. Won't be my issue in about 4.5 weeks when I return to the Northeastern US.

Anyway, Catnip.. if I should disappear before you do, have a safe trip, have a lot of fun, and return to us safely. Also, we won't destroy the forums while you're gone. Serious maiming may take place, however. :P

Some Arab dude shot the doctor that delivered his child because he saw his wife naked.

What a cunt.

I was just reading that article. Kind of sad, really. Maybe he could have just requested that his wife be attended to by a female doctor? If religious/cultural reasons for such a request can be taken into consideration, maybe it would have saved everyone involved a lot of pain and heartache.

So I just hooked up my laptop to the surround sound speakers in my living room and put on The Weeknd, and holy fucking shit you can feel the base from across the street! :shock:
In 1800, the United States collapsed due to a weakened federal government. The Southern states seceded. The Northern states consolidated into the Republican Union, and became forever cursed by a revanchist desire to re-unite the former United States. This revanchism manifested itself in increasingly violent and racist ways, and by the 1890s, the RU was a full-fledged fascist dictatorship. Does not take kindly to Irishmen, Slavs, or Southrons. Population is also heavily doped up on cocaine.

ALL HAIL!

Yes. I know that I've internship work at school at least till the end of june, but I am not sure about after that, so I am pre-emptively trying to get some sort of job that I could start during july and continue part time during fall/winter. Perhaps a place I could get a thesis subject for.

Well, hang in there. I know people hate to hear that, but it is very truthful. The economy isn't as awesome as all the hype I hear.


Also... compliance = consent.
