Does that mean that your new appartment has striking similarities to a war zone?
Burton, back to cleveland? When how Common mike enquiring minds want to know.
Only one more week of classes. Yippie. and then a month "off" as long as "off" means starting to learn latin, german, and begining to compile a bibliography for a as-of-yet nonexistant thesis topic. Or maybe I should spend my time learning to prepare the perfect Margarita. Now that would be time well spent.

Here's an odd little coincidence. The day after reading that article that Kate linked us to, I was driving along thinking about asshole drivers etc. (I guess I need to prefece this with the fact that in Winnipeg there are these convienient cross walk things where if you want to cross the street you puch a button, lights flash and cars have to stop, and pedestrians can cross the street safely. One of the negitive side effects of this is that pedestrians don't bother to look to see how close trafic is to them before they push and walk, ie a car could be three feet away and they will push and walk with out thinking about the physics of getting 2000 pounds to stop on a dime). Anyway as I was thinking about this I nearly killed a pedestrian walking through one of thoes cross walk thingies. Granted he did want I described above, but the irony sruck me that while I was full of rightous indignation, I nearly commited the act that I was indignant about.
