Sonofkirk probably won't do his because he says that he sounds stupid when he tries to speak English. I guess it's up to Nick to do the audio then. He might even have a good song to go along with it. :P

That's a shame. Trust me, there are worse accents in English than a French accent while speaking English. Look at South African, for example :P

So how many vacation/sick days do you get? Two weeks?

It's 28 days per annum (Four weeks), with seven days taken off for the statutory holidays, thus meaning I've got 21 days to play around with. I might take a few of them soon...

Indeed but roughly two years later, Tom Fulp was kind enough to give me the name Bahamut due to the former Bahamut being inactive. I'm still grateful even to this day for that.

You were the only one who was funny while being serious at the same time, but I have to say that Nick and I both acted just like we would in real life and I find both of them to be somewhat funny as well. When I showed Mono the video of Nick he only responded with, "Freaks."

Yeah, I tried getting him to do it again and again, but it was followed by excuse after excuse. I even encouraged him to play a little guitar in it to show off how good he was.

Looks like we are just waiting for the best reviewers video to be made and then it'll be all finished. Your huge file made it a close call, but we should be able to do it.

Breakfast time.. I'm feeling bacon, sausage, eggs, bacon, and probably some sausage. I'll probably cover all of it with bacon.

Why do I think we've talked about Lady GaGa before? I'm guessing that song is Poker Face. It's everywhere all right, even in good parodies of it.

I guess it was Poker Face as it seems to be her most popular song, but I really don't know. And I don't remember the song I heard too well, so even if I listened to Poker Face right now I wouldn't be able to tell if that was the song I heard back then. ^^

But she's literally everywhere on billboards.

I do seem to recall a time when "Poker Face" was on constant rotation on virtually every radio station, thankfully I've since acquired a CD player for my car.

My cousin and her friends all seem to be drawn to Lady Gaga after they found out she, apparently is of high intelligence. Personally I'd prefer Rihanna, Gaga has yet to impress me.

I'll be leveling up tomorrow :)

You have to remember that the professor sets up what is an A, B, C .... One professor can have it that 93% and above is an A while another 90%, or have it set to a Bell Curve where the median of students will earn a C.

Really? Since your GPA is so important it sounds kinda strange to me to not have a standard for those grades. Also that Bell Curve is kinda lame. I think some tutors occasionally applied it in our school as well, but not many students liked it. Theoretically you could score 80% correct on a test, but fail anyway because the majority scored higher =/

In my opinion a grade should always be an indication of how well you know the material and not how well you do compared to other students.

GPA is really just an overall look into your college work. It is important, but can't tell the whole story. Also, the grades are set differently it really gives some leeway for each professors to set up the course they wanted it. If it's a hard course they can move the standards down and vice versa for an easy one.

Also, I believe the only class that I had a Bell curve in was a Calculus III course where people were averaging around 60% so in that case it help but it's really rare and only some math teachers tend to do it.

Level up! To one of the most awesome icons out there :)

It was just the accent that made me laugh for some reason. I think it should be submitted some time tonight or tomorrow. We have all the videos, it's just fitting 5 videos into 20 MBs which is the hard thing to do.

I've just bought two Björk-CDs on Amazon. I just wanted to try out Björk (well, I know a few songs from her already and I've seen the movie "Dancer in the dark" where she plays the leading part) as well as I wanted to try out the quality of amazons MP3s. So I bought "Post" for 4,99 Euro and "Family Tree" for 15,56 Euro.
Quality is nice, but it would even nicer if they added the booklets to the downloads.

Yeah, but what I meant was that certain people (or certain commercials) have been all over the town on the billboards since the invention of billboards. So I don't really see the difference if we get to see Lady GaGa on billboards over the next 10 years or other stupid commecials.

It really depends on the school. Each school sets their own admission standards. For my college you get automatic acceptance if you were in the Top 25 % in your graduating class and have a GPA of 3.0 OR have a certian score on a standardize test SAT1090/ACT 24. I had a 3.80 GPA in HS and score a 27 on the ACT so I easily accepted.

It doesn't make much difference in case of a 60% average I think.

It does when everyone would be making a D on the other scale. :)

I have entered in to the top 100 in B/P points.
