(someday I really need to write that friends-visualizer program. but I'm afraid that at this point the output would look like a cobweb. Taken down, wadded into a very small ball, and thrown in a corner.)
Hi friend-of-a-friend. Hope you don't mind that I added you, you're interesting and an Obie. I'll take you off if you want. It's just that it's 3:45AM and I'm bored.
What this means is that I'm getting free airfare to Connecticut and competing there locally with 15 other people (yes, it's down to 16). And even if I totally screw up, I still get $3k.
Now that's *nice* ^^
One amusing note: I went down to the CS office in Oberlin to let them know, beacuse of publicity and stuff. An hour later I got an email from him - I'd forgotten to mention I wasn't a CS major ^^;;
Bill (aka THOUGHTVIPER! The person who introduced me to Luna+Boulder collective. Even though he probably doesn't know it unless Luna told him.) wants to know people would put in a survival kit.
Well, what else? Survival!
*ahem*
no, seriously. hmmmm. *thinks* some sort of energy bars, because they keep forever. Knife is good, so's flashlight. uhm . . . err . . .
survival for *what*? For my car crashing? For my *bike* crashing?
Okay, now I remember why I don't have a survival kit - because any place I'd be that I could possibly use it, I wouldn't have it :P
well that was a useless answer. Guess I'll lob off a reply anyway ;)
