I can't paint Its something you get better at, if you're interested at all, buy one of the Assault on Black Reach sets. You'll get a ton of easy to build Orks and Space Marines. Its a pretty good learners set, its cheap for a lot of minis, so you can afford to screw up, or try things. Some friends ...

Which raises an interesting point -- what does the club think about narrative and creative non-fiction? As I think most of you may have gathered, I love non-fiction. If I could recommend any one book right off the bat, it would be Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. The author assures us its true, but ...

I should tour to California and distribute booze to the underage masses...
I'm pretty far from a lightweight, I guess.

I've also thought about doing a drunken Starfe webcast. Like where I take questions.

And then ramble for half an hour on something mildly related.

I'm going to laugh when you assign us your school reading, and then mine the book club discussion for a take-home final. Actually I would totally assign this autobiography I'm currently reading for class, were it not so long. Its pretty fucking awesome. 19th century samurai-class frat boy style ant...

Universities generally aren't going to look too closely at your actual transcript. They're more interested in your overall stats; GPA and ACT/SAT in the states. Solid troof. My ACT was kind of shitty, but my SAT scores were pretty solid, got a near perfect verbal score one of the times I took it. M...

I like this idea a lot! Especially the book length limit, as I dont read all that quickly.

But for now I have to pass, thi...

Today, while installing a webcam over an autopsy table, so that one of the hospitals I work at can have conferences with the others while doing autopsies, I realized that with my administrative access I could pretty easily set it up so that I could watch autopsies from home. Then I remember how fuck...

We were allowed to go into class 20 minutes early to take our math test, but even with the extra time I was writing right until the bell rang. Didn't quite finish, there were a few questions I skipped and didn't get time to do. Math suucks My high school math career: Geometry: D- Adv. Algebra: C- I...

I do! I was on my way home from class! Acceptable time to have a beverage. I later had a bottle of champagne. Why do you ask?

Waiting for my bus. Popped into the bar for a half liter of Hoegarden and a gin and tonic.

OTL my wallet cries every time my car's gas light comes on. Walking/Busing everywhere sure is nice... Now I even have access to the network of hospital shuttles in Seattle. Its like public transportation, without creepy homeless people! Seriously though I'm really happy I don't drive. And it lets m...
