Then there is the pure financial cost of drugs.

\<i\>WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING?\</i\>

I remember talking to vegitarians hunters

Just curious is the \<i\> an attempt at VB code? I have seen other examples of this. It seems that you are attempting to highlight, possibly in bold or in italics.

Glad you don’t really want to kill people.

Long rant, I have only read about 1/3 so far. I will come back.

Whoa. Stone groove…like that’s really heavy, man. Kill? Wow…I never been killed, before, man. I’ve been wasted, and I’ve been destroyed a few times, for sure.

Like, check it out, this guy does tables without logs, man. That’s really it, you know, you gotta groove on that a minute. You first think, ‘Oh, he said tables without legs’, but that’s not it, you know. It’s tables without logs. That’s, like, substantial, dig it?

Now, Mozart, yeah, I hear what you’re saying. This guy was writing this stuff at 3, and he didn’t need no acid or anything, heck he was probably like you and me on acid back when he was 3. Hey, did you know that other musician, the one that was in that Amadeus movie with him, Salieri, well check this… he started feeling really guilty after Mozart’s death and kind of lost it, you know, I mean, his waves werent’ making to the shoreline any more, you know? So he dug up Mozart and brought him into his study and sat him up there in a chair, like it was gonna be an inspiration to him, you see? But no matter how fast Salieri composed, Mozart decomposed faster.

One of its legs is both the same, the higher it flies the much, and it’s about this color |\< — ----- \>|

No, it’s HTML. vB code is a simplified form of HTML, and for a lot of people who are used to coding in HTML it’s sometimes hard to remember to make the switch. HTML predates vB code by a couple of thousand years.

No, thats not true. While it does predate VB code, the carbon dating used to date the ancient web sites we have found is flawed. According to the HTML Bible, the world wide Web is no where near 1000 years old, and the computer scientest who have put forth the theory that it is just cant handle the the strict coding rules put forth in Algorithms + Data Structures = Programs, so they try to discredit it as simply a myth. If they would only accept the truth as told by the prophet Wirth, and accept his saving grace, there would be peace in this world. I’m sure I have Jack Chick tract about it somewhere. I would be glad to send it you. It will really open your eyes to the truth.

Probably something to do with the blink tags on ancient web sites.

Something like that. You see, computer scientists cant really acurately measure the loss of electrons in differant media. I hear they did a test on [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com) and the test said it had been offline for over 3000 years!..The thing was still in production!

Assuming that you do not want the question mark in there and that you want the base 10 values used;

100 - 117 - 99 - 107

-223.

Or absolute value that and get 223.

Either way, a bit of a silly number.

Ugh

::sighs::

Ok lets get this settled right here and now.

The name stems from when I was 9 years old and first got my hands on a modem. I figured out how to setup AT strings and get everything running, called a local BBS, did the new user sign up thing, and was presented with a

"Choose an alias: " prompt.

Now being a rather logical/mathematically directed individual who tends to do things way to literally, I naturally, after thinking around for awhile, picked the most sensible thing that came to my mind.

Modem was on COM2 (DOS days folks, Mouse on COM1, Modem on COM2);

I was a kid.

COM2Kid.

Well of course capitalization changes from board to board, and still does even on the Internet, and I never really bothered capitalizing the COM part (I think that the first board I signed up for did not support caps in the names any ways. . . .), and things ended up Com2Kid on places that support caps on com2kid on places that do not.

Search Google some time for me, I have 113 results (as of my last checking) for my name, all of one of which is in reference to me, and results stemming back to 1995.

For the final fit of irony, if you really want to check, we both live in Seattle, and you can come and see for yourself that this 6’1" Italian looking male isn’t a kid anymore.

But then I have been using the nick for so long that I could not just give it up now. I mean I have hate pages against me! How cool is that? 😃 😃 😃

Beh, you should see me when I write down my dreams.

Now that will screw you up. 🙂 Tend to be pages long (I have read entire novels in my dreams. Rather nifty) and very. . . . err, weird.

Or my humorous essays.

What do Hamlet and Raspberry Pudding have in common? Bet you don’t know, but I have written a paper on it! 🙂

(Hmm I should redigitize that one and put it on the web, it is a rather nice piece of amateur comedy.)

You deserve a comedy award for that one.

🙂

Oh, and that link to Homer doing drugs is piss ant wimpy.

Hell I see more fucked up stuff then that every time I close my eyes. Shnits. Took me YEARS to learn how to keep my minds eye from wandering all around, I was so exciting the first time I was able to rotate a cube around in my head that I almost jumped for joy. 🙂
