Ah, but your not allowed to ship that any more because it can be used in the production of explosives, so since the world got ultra paranoid about terrorists you can't take it over seas.

And nothing of value was lost.

[RedKing]

You can make bombs out of Vegemite?? 

[Cthulhu]

The bomb threat is just an excuse.  The rest of the world doesn't want to be mean and tell Australia that we put actual food on our toast.

[Pnx]

Seperated from commercialism, and full of nasty spiders and insects.
Australia is truly the land of the incredibly tough.

But hey, dolphins!

[RedKing]

Seperated from commercialism, and full of nasty spiders and insects.

...and snakes, sharks, crocodiles, stonefish, tiny but incredibly venomous octopi, and six-foot-long goanna lizards. And even the goddamned platypus is venomous. And yet, two of the greatest threats to this Terrifying Tropical biome?

The housecat and the rabbit. Go fig.

Also, it's the only place I've ever seen an honest-to-god blue whale in the wild. Was on a boat near the Great Barrier Reef and everybody was looking over one side of the boat because they thought they maybe possibly saw a whale waaaaaay over there if you squint. I was on the other side of the boat just looking at the water and suddenly realized I was looking at a tail. A big tail. Like, a tail half the size of the boat. Bugger swam underneath the boat and all I could think was "Oh god, please don't sneeze or have hiccups..."

You're forgetting the Cane Toad and foxes.

Also, what made me happy today...

He asked that on purpose

My best friend finally caught me up on everything (crushes, awkward asking out on awkward-dates, and arguments with friends)...she felt bad that I was left out of most of the conversations at lunch, being the only guy at the table who isn't dating someone there.

This makes me quite happy, as the people there are pretty much my only good friends at this school, and also because it's nice to know that my friend trusts me enough to tell me that sort of stuff.

The Call of Cthulhu (the song, too) and the feeling of manual shifting at high speeds. I don't even know how to drive stick, but damn, I love that feeling.

I just saw this thread about how to make neverwinter nights work under vista, and remembered I still have all the disks up to hordes of the underdark. I now have both freespace 2 and fully expantion'd NWN availiable for playing, and I dont have college tomorrow.

[Simmura McCrea]

Got my ipod working again.

I guess its time for you to do... AN ALL DAY GAMING BINGE.

The latest Rick Perry speech, his child-like wonder at simple things is quite endearing, frightening in a presidential candidate, but endearing.

I actually had no classes today.  I spent the whole day on campus just for the nice internet.  Sure I thought I had classes but all of them turned out to be cancelled.  Oh well.  I've been able to finish a lot of stuff thanks to this snow catastrophe.

Also sat and talked with a bunch of people I never expected to see today and got a free 680mL iced tea and stick of gum.  People are nice.

There's free showers down at the YMCA near the campus but I'm too scared and socially inept to venture down there.

EDIT:
I was going to post something in the sad thread but now I don't really see a reason to.  I feel happy.

HA, I probably got an A.  Eat my hairless arms, Set Theory!  Eat them!  I am uncomfortably skillful!  More skill than your body can handle!

Set Theory: "I hope my body can take it."

Me: "Yeah, yeah, now eat some more hairless arms."
