    Default So I'm back...

    How's everyone doing? I'm about to start school again after working for the last few months (I had an internship if anyone didn't know).

    Things I learned while working:

    -Managers/Partners treat interns/staff like crap
    -Education is a good thing
    -Having actual money in my wallet is a good thing
    -The American Taxation System is ridiculously complex

    Any major events while I was gone?

    Welcome back!

    Tosa upgraded the vBulletin software, so there are some new features and some kinks still being worked out. Some new people, some bans. NTW. Louis and Strike tried to switch accounts, and Louis got punished with the rags. New avatars. That's all I can think of at the moment.

    Not sure if he was banned or just decided to leave, but he's gone.

    Hey, it's the College Boy, welcome back!

    Canada Revenue Agency or whatever seems easier if you, as an accountant, think yours is complex. But there's a lot of cheap hired help around here, and the system also helps out low-income people. As for moneh, well, I've got a really, really, really, really, really good summer job comin' up, so I'll find out, for the first time in my life, how it feels to have some spare cash in what is usually empty pockets.

    I think he went on a rampage trying to get perma-banned, but they just gave him more points. He didn't show up in Tosa's banned thread. To my knowledge, he could log in if he wants, but I think he's just gone on his own accord now. A shame...

    Welcome back, Ice! Let's see.... I think Drone pretty well summed it up. The frontroom's been lively for a bit with some new folks waxing poetic about their love lives, we discovered the Armageddon-bringing KFC double down, the Colts lost the super bowl (), UNI beat Kansas in the tourney, and, like Louis, I seem to have been drafted into the Green Berets.

    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    I have two weeks off, and then go to school for a month. I get to see my friends graduate, and then have almost the entire summer off. So it's not all bad.

    Thanks for all the warm comments guys. I'm glad some things never change.

    Unfortunately for you, Ice. The Ice Ice baby I remembered when I saw your name is a different one to the one Louis posted.
