    Isn't school great? 3-5 hours of sleep a night for a month...Yay...anyways, just thought I'd stop by and leave a post now, if for no other reason than to keep my login alive...
    School also accounts for the fact that I've not been on SP more than once every few weeks...*grumble* and that I've only been able to play my CRPG's once a week.
    What's this I hear about a "Jefferson" game? Hmm...looks like I'll have to look into that... :hmm:

    To reduce the amount of water you use in your toilets, fill a half gallon jug with sand and place it in the tank of your toilet. You will still be able to flush and you will conserve water.
    Also when you brush your teeth or shave, turn off the water between rinses. You'll conserve a lot of water that way too.

    Yes, they actually do use less water.
    You can really save water by not taking a shower at all! :eek:

    [​IMG] I have had the worst weekend ever.

    my mothers boyfriend kept going on and on at me, I don't like him at the best of times but he wouldn't leave me alone, then I hurt my back and couldn't move for several hours.

    Finally on Sunday I found out that one of my friends dad was taken to hospital in an ambulence because he is dying of cancer and suddenly deteriated.

    I feel really down and now one of my friends nearly got into trouble for accusing me of something I didn't do. My life sucks. :cry:

    8people, unfortunately bad things happen to nice people sometimes. I've had those weekends too were everything seems to just go downhill. There is a rainbow at the bottom of that hill though.
    Through it all, keep your head up high. Remember that things always get better. And just remember that you have friends here and you'll be in our thoughts and prayers were appropriate.

    My life sucks too. A lot. I hate school.

    Yerril, you're really mean to those women. I mean, what normal FEMALE would DROOL over that idiot elf? Not me. He's not attractive. Not at all. I hate him. Eomer is mucho better. :) And don't diss him, I like him and the drunken hobbit in my stomach loves him too.

    NC-17 threesome? I have NEVER written something like that. How the hell you got the idea? No, no. No way. Definitely not.

    Elios, the deal with the toilet works because the majority of the time you are urinating. Not deficating.

    You want that volume of water if you are not on a high fiber diet.

    And with the shower, you'll conserve more water if you have a volume knob on the shower. The new fad in America is to have one single knob to control water; there's no volume knob.

    So, you always have 8 litres per minute flow rate. And if you're hot water tank is set to 45C, and your ground water comes out at 10C, you drain your hotwater tank really, really fast.

    The solution is either two knobs, or one of the better knobs that use all three axis. Up and down for flow rate, and turn the knob clockwise/CCW for the temperature.

    Seriously. I've a 160litre watertank that has a first hour rating of 480litres. Which means, it can fill up (not to full temperature, but more than hot enough for a shower) every 20 minutes. So, if I'm limiting my shower flow rate to around 4.8Lpm, the tank can warm water faster than I use it.

    Think upon that... :)

    I'm going through a worrying stage of apathy.

    I spent a weekend working on coursework, but only out of necessity, and with great reluctance. The maths I handed in was frankly abysmal, and I honestly didn't care. The English I wrote was possibly the worst essay I have ever written. English is supposed to be the uber-important subject o' me! I don't know why this is happening, and it has never happened before. Not even "I don't wanna miss a thing" makes me cry anymore! This is probably another crazy, tmeporary side-effect of giving up women. It's been 20 days now.

    Then again, there are advantages to having no emotions...

    Morgoth, you don't know, what NC-17 means?

    Quoted from ff.net:
    [NC-17] No One 17 and Under Admitted : This signifies that the rating board believes that most American parents would feel that the film is patently adult and that children age 17 and under should not be admitted to it. The film may contain explicit sex scenes, an accumulation of sexually-oriented language, or scenes of excessive violence. The NC-17 designation does not, however, signify that the rated film is obscene or pornographic.
    -----
    :)

    This the last post about it.

    Anyways, people, how is your weather?

    Eze laughs and hugs her 66 pages of certain story

    Stupid ff.net. They removed my story and banned me temporarily.

    The weather here is absolutely gorgeous. It makes me want to go outside and get down on my knees and be happy to be alive. To spin around like a 5 year old with too much time on their hands. To drive around with the windows rolled down and the radio blasting and my tongue hanging out....just like a dog. Ahhh, winter in NC.
