				I am still alive and kicking.  I thought I would drop in to give ya'll a shout.  I am still in school.  I have 55 pages worth of papers due in less than a month, so I am pretty busy.  With that and work I barely have enough time to take a leak in the morning.  Hope all is well with you all, hopefully soon I shall return, cause from the sound of it God knows you need it.  Catch you on the flip side.

				It's easy Ithica.
You can summarise anything you need to know at university into these questions:
1) Where is the cheapest booze.
2) Where is the cheapest food.
3) Where are the cheapest women.
4) Who did the same unit you are doing last year, and will they sell you their assignments. Cheaply.
I didn't fully understand point 4 when I was studying, hence I didn't pass a bogus unit I needed to while everyone who cheated did. But I still have my high ground.
Anyway, keep plugging away. When you know something well, you'll find 10,000 words will spill out naturally. If you don't know it well, it's hard work.
Just think, if you quit studying, and started flipping burgers, you'd have all the time in the world to play this game.

				Unfortunatly, I have neither the time nor energy for drink, or women.  I get all the crappy parts of college and none of the benefits.  Charlie will probably see me first in World of Warcraft before you guys, because I think I can actually run that game on my computer.  Even that won't be until December.

				Yeah I had the same problem. All that study and book buying kept my time and finances tight... Still managed to spend way too much time down the university tavern though. I figure I managed a PhD in Tavernology by the time I got out... Surprisingly, an ability to put away copious amounts of booze has actually helped me get promotions, on ocassion. Smoking helps too (great networking when you have to stand out the front of the building to smoke, with all the bigwigs). Life is weird.

				You mean to say the French have a history....
let me see....
They ran away, and then the ran away again and again and again...but 1940 wasn't their fault, the Brits should have stayed and fought their fight for France, even though the French had the biggest and most modern Army in the world at the time. Not to mention that they also had more tanks the rest of the world but together...
lol joking  
 
 Got to love having a dig at the French

 I'm sure they would have put up a better fight in 1940 if they had competent staff officers, and a decent communication structure. Oh yeah, and if they hadn't left a huge gap in the Maginot line. When it comes down to it, if the Belgians had held their part of the line, France would have been in a much stronger position too.
Actually, the French have a very interesting history.
It was funny when I was in Paris. I got spat on for speaking English with my mates. But when people realised I was Australian, not British, it all reversed dramatically, and I could do no wrong. They still really hate you poms!  
 
 And it has to be said, the French definately make the most comfortable underpants in the world.

				Well, I am fascinated by William of Normandy.  He was an asskicker and a nametaker.  He must have been a dambuster.
