and then only in the subject line above.

Obviously there is only going to be one topic of conversation tomorrow. I say that this topic is B-ORING. So I'd like to see people post in this thread about any OTHER topic. Anything at all, just not the B-ORING topic. Also, its a rule that if you post in this thread you cannot mention the B-ORING topic. Anything else, yes. The B-ORING topic, no.

Ok, somebody else get us started. Talk about something.

I'm so bored I spent a couple hours learning PHP and the GD library just so I could create an image the randomily generates numbers and posted it somewhere on Apollo.

I tore the nail off my big toe last week. Oh it hurt lots and lots. Didn't tear clean off either, ripped off about 3/4 down.

One time I shoved a Lego in my ear and it hurt like crazy. Now my legos have 1 less piece, and my earhole bleeds from time to time.

I had an interesting experience this morning...I think it was my first real "college experience"

Okay, we set all of the clocks in our dorm room back for daylight savings time this weekend. At least I thought we did...I use my Palm pilot for my alarm clock. I set it for 7 in the morning, I have Economics class at 8, and I had a big test today. I got up when my alarm went off, took a shower, ate a donut and looked at the clock. It was only 6:45...my Palm was an hour ahead so I was up an hour earlier than I needed to be. So I fixed the time and set the alarm for quarter to 8 so I could make it to class on time. Well, the alarm went off and I, in my state of half-consiousness, thought I could lay down for a minute before getting up. Wrong. I fell back to sleep and woke up when my roommate's alarm went off at quarter after 8. I was up and in class in 5 minutes, luckily the teacher let me take the test. The sad part is I was 20 minutes late for class, but still finished the exam before some other people in the class did Thank God my roommate has a 9 o'clock class on Mondays...

Well, that may have been boring, but at least it was not about you-know-what.

Anyone else got Warhammer 40,000awn of War ? Great game - seems to be much better than Rome:Total War (which I'm selling on eBay).

W40K Down of war is great ... but didn't play it much yet.
But maybe I only like it because I play the table-game.

That's cuz Game is horrible, you can't even find some available games on their website. Can you even sell games to Game? Or do they just put returned ones as "used"? Game can't compare to America's Game Stop and EBGames, the websites can tell you wether or not items or in stock in a store, you can find the store by typing in your zipcode, and there are special on-line offers and what not. Game, well lets not go there...

Game can be pretty good - although not terribly cheap. They do tend to stock old/unusual games (which is sometimes useful).
