Time warner seems to be getting a little over-zealous in their advertising. I found this on my door the other day:
:)
Adrienne's given up on me, sort of. It's complicated, but I'm not going to let her get away that easily. It's probably good for now, to be be less stressed... but change is bad, and it would be very odd not to talk to her every day. But she doesn't hate me or anything, so ... but enough about that..
The way work has been, and with school starting soon, hopefully I'll be able to muddle through. I think I might be hallucinating I'm so tired, I'm also still wonky from falling off my bike like an idiot on cannon dr. the other day. I think my body is unsatisfied unless it can work on healing something, so I've basically got some kind of internal muenchausen biproxy disorder going on which causes me to injur myself in ridiculous ways when cameras aren't running. Actually, If you see "idiot at OSU bites it" on youtube or something, please let me know - I'm still dying to know exactly what happened.
I found another reason to lock my door: UPS knocked on my bathroom door while I was taking a shower, to deliver a package... It's for my roommate, so I hope it's something special. The first reason is that landlords and police think that an unlocked door is sufficient cause to enter, guns drawn where applicable. While I beg to differ, I'm in no position in either case.
And Mandy's wedding is coming up soon. That should be ... fun.
And school sucks, I think authors of self-inconsistent textbooks (especially professors) should be accountable. Something on the order of a class-action lawsuit might change things a bit... and at the rate textbooks (especially engineering ones) are declining, I'll consider it inevitable.
TBS exec fired for placing false title on matchmaking site
A high-ranking official of Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) has been dismissed for falsely describing his title on a matchmaking website, company officials said.
TBS expressed deep regret over the incident. "As someone who works for a broadcaster and as an individual citizen, his actions are immoral and extremely regrettable," an official of the company's public relations department said.
An assistant manager at the company's health and welfare division, whose name has not been disclosed, described himself on the matchmaking site as being a single man who works as a producer at a broadcaster. Moreover, the age he put up on the site was younger than his actual age.
After a weekly magazine reported his dispute with a woman he had got acquainted with through the site, TBS launched an in-house investigation and he subsequently admitted to the allegations.
He was initially suspended from duty for six months and demoted from department manager to assistant manager after he fondled the body of a woman at a movie theater. He settled the dispute with the woman out of court. (Mainichi)
Last Friday aidian and I donated clothes to the needy (11 points). In July I turned dirty_frenchman in for tearing the tag off a mattress (3 points). In October I donated bone marrow to kacymastapiece in a life-saving procedure (300 points). In February I put gum in robotatomico's hair (-12 points). Last Thursday I set chemokitty's puppy on fire (-66 points).
Overall, I've been nice (236 points). For Christmas I deserve a pony!
There are much better articles, but I saw this first.
Finally! Looks like we might not have to have monster truck rallies at crew stadium next time this year.
With the ass out on his ass, we're good to go.
Very funny to get the news this way too because last night on one of the local news channels, they covered the crew in brief along with the loudest noise in the stadium ("SACK ANDRULIS").
I still won't buy tickets until they win a game. Just one. Win a game, you idiots.
I love 101s. Just took an "exam." We were given 78 minutes for 62 questions, which I finished in 18 minutes. That's less than 20 seconds per question, esp. if you consider the annoyance of scribbling various numbers and names onto the scantron....
Actually, I hate 101s. Wasn't I supposed to get out of this?
at least I didn't crack the fucking book (which I fortunately did not buy).
You waited all this time for an update [not really] from me [anyone would do], and I made you wait [not really] .. and wait, .. and now that you've totally lost interest, I'm only giving you this quiz thing. So, enjoy.
There will be more, real posts, I promise [not really].
