Well, this thread is a nice change from the usual BT stuff I've seen lately.

Also, ATB is awesome.

That was my question as well.

On a happier note, I may actually be able to sleep tonight.

Also, I have 21 days of school left.

Ok, but why is he refered to as ATB, and not just AT.

(Besides the fact that AT is often used for Argentine Tango. :icon_lol:)

the bronchial infection I've had for the past week and a half seems to have run it's course  :icon_biggrin: and I got to have a sword fighting tournament on sunday and transfer the championship I've held for the past year to my sucessor.  :mrgreen: as well we got to play with all our sharp weapons in the back yard chopping up tatami mats, milk jugs and so forth, very cool.

And there was lots of good food too.

Lucky you, mine is still going and I've had it for 4 months. Admittedly it's incredibly minor, but still.

More misery please. Schadenfreude is going strong.

I have SARS. Again. More likely a bronchial infection really, but that's how we call it. And it sucks, big time.

Also, I'm chronically ill!

this website is always good for a laugh  http://notalwaysright.com/  It might not be random but laughing at the profound silliness of others makes me happy sometimes. 


BTW Whitey I highly recommend Buckleys syrup with Guafenicin expectorant, it's startlingly bad tasting but it works.  And putting something as bad tasting as that on purpose into your mouth several times a day should satisfy even your desire for schaden freude, and have you looking for flowers, kittens and little lambs.

It's other peoples misfortune, not my own!

Also, food drink combinations. Salt and Vinegar Crisps + blocks of cheese, washed down with lemonade/coke.

I'm in heaven.

About that notalwaysright site, I work in a store and it's frightening how silly people can be. My favourite was rather mild, but I personally found it hilarious.

"No, it's half price. It pretty much amounts  to the same thing, but it's better if you only want one"

Whenever I cough or sneeze I cough up yellow/black gunk from my chest.

I need to quit smoking...

On a happier note my business cards came in today. You are now talking to Benjamin N. seib Travel Consultant - woochich
The greatest form of control which can go on forever until it is exposed is a tyranny you can't see, touch and taste (unlike totalitarian Govts). When you sit in a prison cell but can't see the bars, because people don't rebel against not being free when they think they're are.

that is pretty cool - not the lack of showers thing though.

acvtually instead of showers you get light oil and exfoliating grit massaged into you nightly which is then scraped off with "strigils" which are similar to an artist's palette knife crossed with a butter knife and towelled dry. 

Chicks pay big big dollars for that priveledge.  there may be a catch however....  oh shadow looooooord. 

Thing to keep in ming to is that gladiatorial combat, it is being discovered bears a lot more resemblance to second string wrestling circuits than the fight to the death murderous spectacle we have been led to believe.  Blood was superficial and Combat's  seem to have been staged for the spectacle.
