Yeah, but when Montana State was so named, MSU wasn't MSU/MoState. Plus their campuses are less than an hour away from the Missouri River. Whether this is where Ward Churchill got the now discredited idea that the US Army poisoned a tribe from this area with smallpox back in 1837 has yet to be determined.

I was once married to three men, who had, like, 20 wives between them.

that's mostly true. in lieu of recent events (i need to fill you in on some stuff, dear...), though, i've determined to disregard anything they say about males.

Well Caitlin, I had to re-register to AIM as ClockworkWarren now. I've tried speaking to you but you don't reply, which makes me think there is something quirky going on with the damn computer innards. So I just don't know.

A phone number perhaps?

And I hope most of what you said was for humor's sake.....

Actually, it looks like Geocities is allowing it since it shows up sometimes, but it's not showing up now because it says "The web site you are trying to access has exceeded its allocated data transfer," so it's apparently a bandwidth issue.

The sad realization that what's on the outside isn't what's on the inside, and vice versa. He should write it on a card and put that in his purse-uh; the sad knowledge that we all curse-uh. His soul, cold in the hard fact that life is not what it seems. The news not fit to print, black and white in long reams, slogans and cliches hung from the crossbeams. Maybe one day he'll figure it out, like a boxer in a 99 round bout. I hope I hear the day when he lets his final answer aloud in a shout.

Hey, it's a good thing I wasn't just dying to facebook you, because I really have no idea what country that is.
Wait...maybe this isn't the appropriate message board on which to admit something like that...
(see my avatar.)

((ok, i'm kidding. i came up with the country...after thinking about it for a bit, haha))

Hey, uh...congratulations?
I thought that I might have a college email leftover from dual credit in high school, I was going to try to register my friend Miguel on such an address. I didn't actually have one, though, alas.

When I came to PRO in June I already had an e-mail address at UMKC because of my dual credit chemistry that I didn't need or know about. I'm sure these days one will have an e-mail address with any school through which he/she takes dual credit.

On a mostly unrelated note, when I looked up the street address for NKC, I discovered that North Kansas City School District student computer accounts include e-mail. I wonder if they actually use it.

Oh wait, this is the facebook thread; why am I even here?

Ok, I did some summer research there, yeah, yeah. But I didn't know about it until today when I got some spam mail and it said it was addressed to this WashU account. Then I tried another thing and it forwarded straight to my Gmail account.

It's crazy I tell ya.

Plus, I checked the phone directory and they've got me registered with a phone number and a campus mail box. And unless there's someone else with my full name, well...

They're adding student e-mail accounts at Liberty. They'll be turning in assignments that way.

Which means more homework. Consarn it, let's just go back to 5¼" floppy disks!! Those were the (BLEEP), man!!

I used to have this game I really liked that was on a big ol' disk. It involved princesses and picking out a dress and a prince and a background for them?? haha.

But my parents gave away the computer that could read said disk in a white elephant gift exchange a few years ago.

Alas.
