| For those of you who were wondering, these days I'm posting mostly on my Myspace page. But then again, you're pretty much all on Myspace anyway.

| Today's moment of weird: When we went to our least favorite class and
saw the note on the whiteboard announcing that class was cancelled. My
two friends and I looked at each other, then suddenly all started
laughing uncontrollably at the same time. It was pretty cool.
Today's quote: Bishop swallowed some cheese the wrong way.

| Okay, so Wolverine probably would beat Cap in a fight. It would be one
hell of a match to see, though. As sdoloff pointed out, Cap's shield is
a great counter to Wolvie's claws. They are both excellent fighters,
with Cap favoring more of a Special Forces-type martial arts while
Wolvie knows all sorts, from samurai to dirty, no-holds-barred
brawling. The deciding factor would, of course, be Wolverine's healing
factor, which means he can, as they say, take a lickin' and keep on
tickin'. Eventually he'll wear down Captain America until Cap makes a
mistake and gets gutted. The good Captain would probably keep fighting
after that, even, but eventually he'd bleed out and weaken to the point
that Wolverine could deliver a killing blow.
They're both awesome though, even if Wolverine has a weird hairstyle
and mutton chops and Captain America has those little winglets on his
head.
And I still say that Batman could take Superman. Think about it:
Superman can't get any better than he already is. Batman, however, can
rise to the challenge by breaking out better gear and researching his
opponents. Superman, on the other hand, has a huge weakness in
kryptonite that Batman can exploit, while Batman doesn't have any such
obvious weaknesses.
Did you know that the word Klingon is in the OED? Cool, huh?

| Well, since it's almost Christmas, I thought I'd make a special yuletide post.
Oh wait, hang on, I let the media hype fool me again. It's still a
month to go, but we're all just super excited about our favorite time
of the year. Why's it my favorite time of the year? Because there's no
school. Nootch. Not like Thanksgiving break, either, where you don't
have classes but you still have homework. That doesn't count.
So who would win in a fight... Captain America or Wolverine? I got nothin'.

| If you put a hundred monkeys at a hundred typewriters for a hundred
years, you won't get Shakespeare. What you will get is something very
closely resembling African and Caribbean Literature of the 1950s and
60s, which, incidentally, is one of my classes this semester. I find it
ironic how our professor can assign us scads of reading each day,
having us read several books with generous helpings of essays, poems
and some plays for spice, then tell us in class that the authors we're
reading are really better known for some of their other works. Then
why, may I ask, are we not reading those?
I have an annoying habit of ending sentences with "because..." I think
people usually expect more to come after "because" when someone says
it, but I often just trail off. Either that or someone who's been
waiting for me to pause for breath immediately jumps in with their
brilliant comment while I try to think of exactly how to make my point.
Sometimes it bothers me when I think about people genuinely believing
in some really bizarre things. For instance, have you ever read quotes
from L. Ron Hubbard describing the space civilizations he used to talk
about? The man isn't exactly convincing. He sounds more like he's
making it up as he goes along.
I don't want to really get started on that now, and I have to go anyway. Cheers, lads.
