I had a teacher who docked points for being too advanced.

"Make this huge table in html and so and so rows should be this color and that color etc"

First thing that came to mind is CSS. Apparently that was too advanced for him. He wanted us to use <td color="color name" border= etc

Oh, that’s the funny thing: There were no tests, homework, or classwork. We seriously just sat there and did whatever we wanted.

Yeah when I used to do that kind of stuff, I only did HTML. I was hoping to get into CSS and Java, but never got to it.

Stasi, is your signature from a silent movie with zombies or something? Probably not, but I am I right in guessing it's old horror?

Sounds sort of like my AP Computer Science class my senior year of highschool. We spent the class times largely surfing the internet or network gaming. The teacher didn't know C++ so whether our code worked or not, as long as we turned in the trivial homework assignments, we pretty much passed.

It's from the 1927 sci-fi silent film called "Metropolis" - a very interesting film.

I though so. That's one of maybe 2 silent films I've ever really watched. Really good flick though. An early science fiction classic that still has a big influence today.

Whoever is on Are you Smarter than a 5th grader is the STUPIDEST person. Kelley or something.

Question:
Budapest is the capital of what European country?

Response:
I don't know, but I think FRANCE is a country, so I'll say France.

Jeff:
France is a country.

Now, lucky for her, she cheated and copied the kids answer. Who was right: Hungary. Then shes like "Hungary is a country?" Her expression was pure "wtf?"

Anyone watch Corner Gas? Red?

It turns out Regina is pronounced with a long I. That’s…nice.

I just tuned in maybe a week ago. Maybe it’s just the accents, but I’m hooked. Thirty minutes of fine, Canadian comedy (<giddyschoolgirl>and Fred Ewanuick</giddyschoolgirl>).

Gah! Is it pathetic to stay up until 2:00 just to catch Corner Gas?

I start working this Tuesday at a textbook store down the street. Money!

Is it pathetic to continue watching even after realizing I’ve seen it before?

I love how so many Italian things have “Mario” in the name.

But, yeah, what sucky customer service! With that kind of delay, you could’ve went to store and made a pizza from scratch!

I’ve managed to fit Fred into my literature essay. I am so messed up.

A portion of my literature essay wrote: [Church] is instead a place to apologize for getting plastered the night before, a place to lament their unnatural attractions to Fred Ewanuick in hopes that God will forgive them and greet them with this season’s hottest Gucci lace-ups.

Ewww finals.

So glad I'm done school.

Make that phone ring, and I'll pick up those support calls, anything to get away from homework, assignments, and all that nasty stuff.
