I wanted a bike when I was younger. Then I decided that if I'm gonna drive a buck-thirty down a stretch of highway, i want 3000lbs of steel surrounding me to absorb the impact of what I hit. I'll stick to cars.

Like I said, I have no problem going 130mph (and have done it more than once, ask my wife). I just prefer to have something other than my face hit the concrete at that speed.

honestly if you're stupid enough to hit 130 in the first place maybe it's safer for you in your 10 tons of steal in your suv so when you hit the 4-door in front of you they die but you don't

I never said WHERE I hit 135

Good idea, bacon. Line starts after you.

I found out that I have 32 hours of credit going into freshman year of college. That is 2 semesters of classes. This is awesome.

Don't get too excited.

I had sophomore standing once I entered college. Most of those credits didn't fulfill any requirements for my major whatsoever. The only real perk I saw was having earlier enrollment times.

Speak for yourself 

I had 32 if I recall correctly as well, and almost all of them filled in some kind of gen-ed requirement, just depends on the school and the curriculum

AP credit didn't count for anything except Calc 1 at my school. :|

[at0m]

I got more credits out of walking in and taking a 2-hour placement exam for German than I did through the two AP classes I took. One didn't count for anything, and the other got me out of Calc I, whereas the exam I didn't study for got me 6 credits of German

Yeah, this is true actually. My English class credit fulfills my English requirement, Environmental Science (what a joke) fulfills Science/Tech general requirement. Psychology fulfills foundations of psychology, Comp Sci fulfills a CS elective, Calculus fulfills my only calculus requirement. My others fulfill general elective requirements, so I actually do have a lot of courses completed already.

Until you realize being able to take a GenEd during an otherwise grueling semester is the only thing that'll keep you sane. ENJOY!

My secret to College happiness was taking the minimum credit hours for full time then making it up in summer. Of course this assumes you don't need to intern.

I didn't have to do an English credit at the university because I graduated high school with some nice English marks, apparently. Still had to do the rest though... not surprised, since my school was balls.

Eh, I have 2 or 3 years until I have to face that so in the meantime I'll be happy with my lack of GenEd stuff and just focus on the fact that it allows me to graduate earlier and save money.

I was able to get my vacation time for next week approved on short notice. Then I was able to nab a left over case of the single-run oak cask aged beer the local brewery made up.

Now my difficult to find copy of Sam&Max: Surfin' the Highway came in, and it's minty.

Paging Lt Crow or At0m.

I think I just received my first booty call. I met someone on OKC, then two days later thanked her for picking a good place to eat/drink. Got this today.

Is that all you want from me, realty advice and restaurant recommendations?
I certainly hope not.
Let me know if you'd like to grab a bite to eat and my butt again in the next few days

If you confirm it's authenticity, I think I'm gonna frame it.

Friend's parents are going to be out of town next weekend, so we're having a party to kick off the start of school.
Shit's gonna be awesome.
