What's the latest in people's lives?
Re: What's the latest in people's lives?
My first final for the semester was today. The rest will be next week. Today was Mechanics of Materials.
Oh and the local newspaper The Trenton Times had the article I was interviewed in on the front page and it came out on the Sunday paper. It has a picture of me and all. So I was famous for five seconds.

Welll tonight I head to the airport, moving back to NZ after a year in Europe, so with travel and jet lag, will probably be about a week.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

On three separate occasions while out driving, I saw or was behind someone who stopped for apparently no reason. No intersection, no pedestrians, no light or changing light. They just slowed to a stop, and then started up again.

This is why it should be legal to have a bazooka on your car, or a phaser, or a thingy that can pick cars up and toss them out of the way. I might have had too much caffeine today.RK_Striker_JK_5 wrote:On three separate occasions while out driving, I saw or was behind someone who stopped for apparently no reason.

Sometimes while working, I pull over to double check an address, or stop to try and read one; I always make sure no one is behind me, though.RK_Striker_JK_5 wrote:On three separate occasions while out driving, I saw or was behind someone who stopped for apparently no reason.

And you at least pull over.

Well, take an 18-hour nap, Teaos. And glad you're alright for the most part.
