That’s our KSU!
Okay, so I am sitting in the Bowman hall computer lab just tinkering with the server and in front of me is this guy searching through “meet somebody” websites. It’s kinda funny cause he’s looking at forums with people writing “I AM LOOKING FOR AMERCAN WOMEN TO MARRY@!!!!” and there are actually replies, but I can’t see those as well because its not written in caps. Maybe he wants a green card, but he looks american enough to me..

Kerry concedes vote to BUSH
and now you’ve done it
Immediately following Kerry's call to the white house, president had this to say:"My fellow americans, justice has been won on this cold November day. Our resolve to punish our enemies has shown through God's beautiful sky and warmed my heart. The national democratic party has stuck terror into the hearts of our children, and I stand by the resolve I made 3 years ago. America has a new enemy. An enemy that goes by unseen. 48% of the nation's population is affected by it. We will find these democratic terrorists and bring them to justice with swiftness and inpunity. Our resolve makes it so. In preparation for this holy event, I, as your president, have called a presidential order to ban the selling, buying, or use, of the game Halo 2. Yes, much resolve. Thank you and may god have mercy on your souls. ha ha ha ha HA!"
This is a sad day for Americans
48% realize it right now
52% will realize it in the next 4 years

Is that everything?
I figured it had been so long since I made an actual post here, that maybe you all deserved it. Maybe I should take the time to write down what I've been doing so that you can know. Because I know the crazy citizens of the internet are dying to know. Yesterday I went on my 3-hour flight for school. Supposed to go to Morgantown, WV; Erie, PA; and back. Yeah, I went there. But it took 4.5 hours in the air, and about 6 hours total. So I was late for work and stuff, but there's always like 2 computers to work on and 6 employees so it was okay. On the way back I got the most beautiful view of the sunset over Cleveland. A fiery red hot sun. Sailor's Delight and all that. Then it was freaking night. I didn't expect the flight to take so long so I didn't have a flashlight. So I was flying by radio navigation only, which worked okay. I flew past the airport and ended up exactly where I needed to be, but it was stressful.I started reading the little story I wrote after the JeloH LAN, where we won the Unreal Tournament...Tournament, and it got me to think about how much I want to play it again. I want everyone to come back and practice again and maybe go to another tournament. If they are still playing that. But I just want to play. Maybe when Half-Life 2 comes out we can all get together and play that and some UT2k4 and maybe some doom3, and maybe some CoD, WolfET,Q3, and anything else except halo 2. Oh what the hell, we can play Halo 2...too.
Rick expressed interest in going somewhere far away for snowboarding. I guess I am into it, but we agreed that we'd all need some good practice in at brandywine before we invest the money. Brandywine is suitable for me, as I am not that good at it. But I really like to snowboard, and being with my friends is enough for me, so I am definately in.
School has been going great. The lowest grade I've gotten in Aircraft Systems 1 is 94%, and most of my other classes are the same. I'm running at near 100% in Hydraulics. I'm putting way more effort in this year, cause I have much more motivation :D
So life is good for me....Busy, but definately good. I love hanging out with friends, my wonderful girlfriend Alison, and not being stressed out a lot like last year. I like where I am going now...

DDR Downgrade in Eastway.
When I’m not in class getting the finest of educations, or taking in the extensive fine literature written in the windows of the dormitories here at KSU, I can usually be found in the Eastway game room where, as long as there aren’t any furries around, I participate in the Revolution of the Two Dances. I went in as usual, played Heavy Janejana(B), then Standard Speed over Beethoven(A) and then I looked at the screen and it said final song. This angered me. Only 3 songs at Eastway now? I used to get 4 songs for my dollar. If I can’t get 8 songs for less than a gallon of gas, I get angry. Oh, and for your info, I failed my last song - A on heavy mode. I guess I called myself 7 foot heavy too early.

Exams
When I was young, I always loved multiple choice exams. Nowadays, they have this crazy system on mulitple choice tests where they say "Choose the most correct answer." They give you a question and there are actually more than one correct answer, but you have to pick the right one or you miss the whole thing. That is totally not fair. I've actually started to enjoy the essay tests more because if you can BS well, you're all set.If I flip a coin 100 times and it lands on heads 51 times then I could say this:
1. A coin will land on heads
A. True
B. False
And the answer would be A
Far fetched, but possible

DDR Upgrade in Eastway
Ok, I know when to admit when I’m wrong. The DDR machine in Eastway has changed, but it is actually better now. Before, you would get 4 songs for a dollar, but now you get 3 songs for 50 cents. This works well because now you can play 3 double songs for one dollar, and if there are a lot of people in front of you to play it doesnt take as long. I kept putting in a dollar and not noticing I still had another credit left in the machine. I threw away DDR that was rightfully mine! Oh Shame! I’m making up for it though, I even got an A on A, but I can’t do it consistantly and still fail sometimes.

Tim Halliday - yes 3pm
Tim Conway - ?
Dan Hawkins - yes needs a ride

Mambo!
I just completely overhauled the Kent State Anime Club website.You can see before: http://www.ksuanime.net/oldsite
after: http://www.ksuanime.net
I used Mambo to create the site, and I have to say I'm pleased with it. Those who helped me create this website know that I am an expert in pmachine, but when it comes to modules and components like xoops and drupal, I am a newbie. So I had to learn all this stuff from scratch, although I think I did a good job with the site. I don't like the main image at the top, but it was not my choice. The next logo will be designed with this site in mind, so it will look better later. I seriously doubt that I will redo this site with mambo because pmachine still does the job here.
