owwwww
I bowled 6 games in one day, and now I have a blister to pay for it. ouch. This morning for class, my two teammates never showed up, and one of the guys on the other team didn't show up, so the three of us flew through our series. I got 96, 138 and 124. In the afternoon I was actually productive and went shopping. I finally fixed the necklace and anklet from Jamaica that I broke months ago. Went to Jo-Anns and they didn't have the right beads so I went to the Crafts and Stuff store by Target. Alyssa (and any other crafty people): they give 10% discounts to students and 20% discounts to teachers! Too cool. Anyway, after a few hours of frustration, I finally managed to fix both of them. Katie and I watched American Idol and Growing Up Gotti, then Keith came over and the two of us went bowling. There, I got 130, 92 and 105. Now my thumb is throbbing. Ah well. I found out this morning that for each game we bowl outside of class, we get extra credit points. Not that I'll really need them, lol.
This cracks me up to no end for some reason.
and I'll end with a joke, as I did yesterday. I know it's an old one, but it's a goodie! :)
At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated, "If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving $25.00 cars that got 1,000 miles to the gallon."
In response to Bill's comments, General Motors issued a press release stating: If GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we would all be driving cars with the following characteristics:
1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.
2. Every time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to buy a new car.
3. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason. You would have to pull to the side of the road, close all of the windows, shut off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before you could continue. For some reason you would simply accept this.
4. Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn would cause your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which case you would have to reinstall the engine.
5. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was reliable, five times as fast and twice as easy to drive - but would run on only five percent of the roads.
6. The oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would all be replaced by a single "This Car Has Performed An Illegal Operation" warning light.
7. The airbag system would ask "Are you sure?" before deploying.
8. Occasionally, for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door handle, turned the key and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.
9. Every time a new car was introduced car buyers would have to learn how to drive all over again because none of the controls would operate in the same manner as the old car.
10. You'd have to press the "Start" button to turn the engine off.
