Ah, you handsome sonofabitch, getouttahere.

Yeah, he should have. But he didn't.
So we're talking about "Why We Fight" (Band of Brothers ep. 9) in my War Images class today, and we watched it last night, and -- I'm pretty sure the teacher really doesn't like BoB, and do you ever have those experiences where you watch something you love beyond reason with someone who doesn't, and suddenly you can't forgive them because you're ( Read more... ) -
Still, I was remarkably productive on the angry-cleaning front there for a while.
!!! My modem is working! I don't know how long this is going to last, so I'm jumping on this opportunity while I can.

So I opened this box I found in my vestibule and there was a camcorder inside it.
Like, a professional-grade video camera. For school. This is going to be awesome. (I'm still waiting for the audio recording equipment that looks like a prop from Fringe. Don't fail me now, FedEx, you've already done so once ( Read more... ) -
