very true, and assuming it is something serious, it may still be soon enough to stop it's progress before it gets too far.
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?
Well, I've been quiet here lately so here's my update:
Last semester finished with yet more solid grades (A-/B+/B), and I'm now working as a PC tech at a local store for the summer (and possibly through my next, and last, semester before I graduate and get a real job). My new Lenovo laptop is now my primary PC, in fact I'm selling my desktop to my friend Frank who will use it as a web server (he runs a web development business from home and he'll host his projects on it so that his customers can log in and check the progress - once the sites are done they'll be transferred to a proper web hosting company). Once I've gotten the machine reconfigured properly (he'll supply an extra hard drive and a RAID controller) I'll get $325 from that. I've also bought a new 1 TB external HDD, and since my sister Rose is in need of an external drive but unable to purchase one now, I gave her my old 500 GB drive as a gift (already reformatted for her).

Well, my ex logged onto MySpace today, which means she read my little birthday greeting.
No response; at least she didn't tell me to f*ck off, right?

Holy Crap, I am officially a High School Graduate. It feels a little odd I must admit, realizing today was the last time at least for a while I'll see all my classmates in one place.

Re: What's the latest in people's lives?
Just spent the weekend taking my wife, along with our kids, to the Biltmore House in Asheville, NC. It was something she wanted as her birthday present. We went there Saturday and had a great time.
We then spent all of her birthday, today, taking our time getting back home. The day started at Waffle House and we spent the rest of the day at Bass Pro Shop......yeah life is good.

Our cat had a really bad ear infection, and has bled, pretty much everything in his ear, out, and all over the basement. Hope the cops don't come by anytime soon, if they did they would definitely believe we killed someone, considering our other cat had a really bad ear problem, that bled all the time.
