What's the latest in people's lives?

This is your female friend???

Yeah, though a couple of my other female friends also like to get naked around me, so it's not like she's alone.

Hey, something has to offset the complete disaster area that is the rest of my life, right?

So there's at least three people here who like walking around in the nude? Well...you never can tell what kinds of things your friends are into.

So true. I just completely freaked out this female friend I was talking to with what I thought were pretty tame (at least to me) ideas. She tripped out. Going to let her go. She would get boring rather quickly, and I need excitment right now (AND NO RELATIONSHIPS), just "fun" friends

Dude, after I leave Blackstars place, I'm coming you visit you and the girls. Well, mostly the girls

No prob. I'm only a few thousand miles south-west of her.

Hopefully, I'll be able to comendeer a train. Parachuting naked from an airplane is a little uncomfortable.

Guess now's as good a time as any to jump into this thread.

Congrats to Mikey!

I go to a baseball game with my Dad tomorrow, my last of the summer before the fall semester starts one week from tomorrow. This time I'll be able to avail of the wi-fi at Shea stadium using my new Palm TX; I've had some success browsing the net, including this site, using Opera Mini (Ian might see this in the logs) - speaking of DITL on portable devices.

If you didn't know already, I'm studying Engineering Science (a general kind of engineering program, my concentration is in mechanical engineering) at the local campus of the City University of New York. I'm entering my senior year - though I'll actually have three semesters left, as the senior design project will hold me back one semester (It's a full-year two-semester sequence, which I can't begin until the spring semester starting next January since I'd go over the credit limit this fall). But, I have the freedom in that extra semester to take any electives I want for fun; I have a good chance at graduating c*m laude (the board would censor c*m).

I get a stream of income via SSI - supplemental security income from the US govt due to my schizophrenia, and lately have added a second stream via writing articles for online publication, as well as other work like Google adwords stuff for my buyer. Next summer I would hope to get an engineering internship with a local company (hmmm, wonder if there's anything nearby... There is that fairly large city across the mouth of the Hudson from here in Staten Island )

When you turned on the power, did any lights or fans come on? If so, did you hear any odd error beeps?

Yeah, the lights and fan came on, along with this really disturbing whirring noise.

Sounds like one of the fans has either got wires in it's way or has come off it's bearings. Depending upon how long it was like that it could have burned out the CPU or something else.

I've gotten loud noises from my old computer at time, which seems to have resulted from a buildup of dust in the fans. Now, my new machine is too young to have anything like that. I did once have a video card burn out from a power surge once, and had a hard drive go bad a few years back, on the old machine I've since sold. I did upgrade from 20 to 80 GB in the process, though (was to be 40, but due to some snafu, he gave me an extra 40 gig of capacity free!)

Whoa.

I just got an email off a UK television production company. They are researching a programme about Star Trek fans and want to talk to me...

Any way we'd get to see (hear) this once it's done (if you do it)? Particularly those of us from parts afar of the UK?

So, we can never know if the person we're chatting with on DITL happens to be clothed? Have the neighbors ever gotten a free show?

Well, in the old days they did used to give out cigars, which was probably a lottery of somesort to curb overpopulation. (cookie for reference
