I'm all itchy. I had to help rip the fiberglass insulation out of an old barn, and even though I did get to shower afterwards, I'm still itchy...

 

Well I'd say that it's better than like Gnarf. BTW, I've never had lice but I'd imagine that most things are better than them.

 

@Gnarf, try rinsing off the areas with vinegar. It has worked for me in the past.

 

VX-8100?

 

Then Gnarf will smell like a pickle!

 

No, I haven't gotten it yet, it is on my old VX4500. I started playing around with it, and saw that as an option. I knew you would be proud of me DoTW. I hope to get the new phone tomorrow, if the finances are there, it is only free with a $50 mail in rebate, so I have to have cash up front, unless I do the online thing which has an instant rebate.

 

I have some problems with online transactions...

I'm pondering whenever I should pick back either my old Fido 3595 or my Telus VX-3200. Hmm...

 

4 out of 3 people have problems with fractions...

Guess what...I'm one of them.

 

grrrr.... I hate the last week of class and Finals week that follows. I wish I could just go to sleep and wake up when it was all over.

 

Technically you could Ilmater, but you might have problems after you woke up because you slept through all of your tests.

I'm going to sleep now. This way I won't be tempted to overpost on this page.

 

*sigh* I wish when people where having sex in the dorm, they'd do it quitely so you couldn't hear them freaking screaming and moaning in the hallway. I don't enjoy listening to the walls shake when I go to brush my teeth. Not to mention, its a little disgusting and classless when you engage that brazenly.

 

And I am off to see dad and get the dog now.

But damn, do I wish that the stupid weather had not ruined all my clothing plans...

 

Ripped jeans, normal boots, and I shoot, fence, do archery, and used to do karate. COmbat skills, you think?

 

Morning Spammers it's nice and shiny here.

I've got a few tunes on mine Cafe Del Mar - Energy 52 is my normal ringtone, Insomnia - Faithless is my alarm call, God is A DJ - Faithless is my text ringtone and Adagio for Strings - Tiesto is my MMS ringtone.

 

Morning DS, it is to be shiny and warm today here as well. The kids are going on a field trip, no one to disturb me, games shall be played.

In other news, I only have 2 1/2 hours left. Yippee!

Clothing plans? I get up, I get dressed, how much planning can this take?

 

Morning Brall Yayness on the gaming opportunity and less than 150 minutes left

 

Combat skills... /me takes a look at his law books

Someone hold the trees while I yawn, please.

@Brallrock: That's because the high number is confusing in case of FX5700. As far as I remember, it's even outperformed by FX5200 in some tests. Not like it still wasn't a good bargain for $20 (it could normally cost 60 or more), but depends what you had before.

 

I had a Radeon 9200 64 mb card.

/casts hold on trees

 

@Ofelix: My pleasure. Those sounds are hard to get right and many native speakers go for simplified forms. For example, in performance of some native speakers of English, the stronger "th" sound won't differ much from "d" if at all, so "the" will sound close to the French "des". Non-native speakers will also sometimes treat it like "v". The weaker "th" will be pronounced as "f" ("feature" and "theatre" sounding the same for some people is no joke) or "s" ("Senk you, Mister Smiss." ) the same way. A good start would be working with "f" and "v" but blowing air between your upper frontal teeth while you let out the sound. Unless you want to mimic what your hear and work it out yourself.

@Brallrock: Hmm... I'll take a look at some charts when I'm home but it's quite possible that there's not much difference. FX5700 is a bit slower than Radeon 9550, but 9550 is slower than 9500, because 9500's old structure produces better speed than 9550's new one. IIRC 9200 is quite similar technically to 9500. What you get with 9700, though, is more support for modern DirectX toys than Radeon 9200 had and it's crucial for some games.

And thanks. /me yawns so hard birds get a power-up

Mornings.

 

You may be right, Dfly. Ours is a Syrian Long-Haired, I'm informed
He is also evil.
