I took it and the results were interesting, though hardly suprising in my case...my results were little to no automatic preference to either category...]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2129/paris-hilton-gets-out-of-jail-early Thu, 07 Jun 2007 20:10:41 +0000 Kevin M. 2129@/forum/discussions

I was awake for about 15 hours yesterday, slept for 10 hours, and then woke up. I've been up since about noon today, and I'm not tired AT ALL right now (it's after 4am).

My plan right now is to stay up until tomorrow around 10pm so I'll actually be tired, then sleep for 10 hours or so to get back on schedule. I don't have anything to DO tomorrow, so I don't really need to be on top of my game.

My plan also involves an "early breakfast" (ahahah) of pancakes and BACON (which sucks in Thailand, so I'm tickled to eat it again). It's 6pm in Bangkok right now, so maybe that's why I'm hunnnngry?

I also think that staying up for 48 hours, then sleeping for 10 is the perfect combination for daily life. I may just try it for a few days until I find a job, and I'll let you know how that works! I would be so freaking productive if it does work...muahaha]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2127/where-did-the-crim-department-go Thu, 07 Jun 2007 13:23:38 +0000 Kevin M. 2127@/forum/discussions http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2099/the-great-global-warming-swindle Sat, 26 May 2007 13:41:41 +0000 Smartso 2099@/forum/discussions 'An Inconvenient Truth', you're SOL if you want to watch it on Google Video now though... Anyways, I'm sure most of you have heard and probably haven't seen 'The Great Global Warming Swindle', which is available to watch on Google Video right now:

Personally, short of going out there, taking my own samples of EVERYTHING, learning what to do with them etc, going over hundreds, even thousands of years of weather history, learning a bunch of different sciences, 'The Great Global Warming Swindle' has turned me from 'An Inconvenient Truth', which I was pretty biased towards before going into GGWS.

Your thoughts. Do you care? Are you moving south to live in the Tropics?

I'll have lots of pictures soon if you feel like checking those out.

Looks like the forums have undergone a facelift since I was last here! I'll be mostly back for the next little bit, but I do need to find a job. If anyone knows of something light-weight in East Van or Burnaby that I can continue on parttime through school, give me a shout.

Otherwise, I'll be back-tracking through some of the old posts to make sure I'm up to date.

And the softwares keep crashing.
The main reason is 90% of the softwares running are written for PowerPC.
If I have to replace all the softwares, it will cost more than $10,000.
Even if I have the money, many of the softwares still haven't come up with the new version for intel Mac. I am kinda stupid to buy this intel mac. I complained to Apple that there should be a warning to customers in terms of the software issues. However, they said they have no responsbilites regarding softwares. Apple sucks a big time for this one and also breaks my trust this time.]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2118/convocation-ceremony-convocation-book Mon, 04 Jun 2007 18:43:56 +0000 中国&#30 2118@/forum/discussions http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/2095/room-3050-in-the-aq Fri, 25 May 2007 15:10:28 +0000 Krazy_Konrad 2095@/forum/discussions
The otherday I was looking for room 3050, i found it on the map. But apparently it does not exist in real life. I looked around for a good few minutes and refrenced the floor map often.

Fortunatly I was confused and soon realised that I actualy needed to find room 5030 (which i found no problem).

However, this situation has left me feeling very strange. A room that exists on paper but not in real life disturbs me. Its like some strange kind of mystery.

Can some one show me where room 3050 is? It would make me feel soooo much better.]]> http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/9/new-gym Thu, 06 Jul 2006 21:36:58 +0000 Mac83 9@/forum/discussions http://www.talksfu.ca/forum/discussion/86/new-fitness-centre Fri, 01 Sep 2006 01:20:02 +0000 Thind 86@/forum/discussions
