Lucky bums who get snow. I HATE living in south Louisiana (New Orleans). I'm from West Virginia, and my parentsare from Michigan. I HATE living in south Louisiana (New Orleans). My family evacuates for Mardi Gras. Disneyworld is best during Mardi Gras - we get a week off, and no one else does. The only people there are New Orlineans and Europeans.

Believe me, if you had it all your life, you'd be tired of it too.

I'm from Arizona, and I, for one, am GLAD that there isn't snow. I can go outside with just a tshirt and jeans, no need to get bundled up, and it's great. I used to live in Michigan, and I liked the snow, but this is SOO much better. Count your blessings...

Oh my gosh! This new system is GREAT! I got back to the post screen and it was already there! Great job Ticalc staff! (I'm not exactly sure who it was that made this change) I am very happy with this!!!

I like it too! It's great!

And snow really is bad. I hate going outside now just to get to the bus for school. Sure, snow is fun for going sledding and all that stuff, but I have a choice between hot or cold weather, I'd choose hot.

HA! I live in Georgia, and it sucks that snow shows up randomly around here (in the greater Atlanta area). If there is just a report that an ice storm MIGHT happen, our school systems shut down. :)

Sounds like the school system around my county...the moment a single snowflake falls, school everywhere is canceled. The board of directors must be ummm...a bit paranoid.

dam i wish our district was that easy
one time 2 years ago there were like 2 feet of snow expected but they still made us go to school, then they ended up leting us out after like an hour of school cause they didnt want us to get stuck there! lol

Lucky! Here in NY state (at least my neck of the woods) we could get/have gotten over a foot and have still had to go to school. Well, the roads only had 3-6 inches of slushy snow on them..
In Texas, where I formerly lived after moving there at a young age from NY, any ice cancelled school.
Ah, the Southern USA...

Yes! Programming for me too. Looks like programming and playing games are tied at the time I posted. Wish I could vote for more than one cause what if I program a game and then want to play it?! So yes I'll be getting plenty of sleep (around 10hrs) and then program stuff while playing Halo hehe.

why program your calc when you're at home for weeks with a nice ol' computer just begging for you to program it? ;)
I'm 8 chapters into my 10-chapter php book and I just got into mysql. Like I'll ever EVER use calc matrices again for programming. :)
Gotta go check out the new homestarrunner sbemail.

LOL, I saw that too. BTW, has anybody noticed how many millions of little secrets they have all throughout the site? I don't understand how they can make a flash animation so long in only one week. I mean, there's so much detail that goes into everything in there.

you click on the light switch by the front door...why do you guys always have to make people Email you to find out "secret" things??? just post it here...that's what this place is for. (well not technically for homestarrunner stuff but hey...) Also there's a hidden thing if you give the pumpkin to strong mad in one of the halloween things...

I never knew what that switch did. I guess if you click it more than once, it will not work.

I never knew what the switch did either, but I did know about the pumpkin. It was pretty obvious, though, I kind of found it by a mixture of an accident and over hearing a conversation about it before I had even seen that toon before.

LOL I can't remember what I was doing that day that made me sound rather hyper, though, I do think FrontPage is evil. Along with many other things, like internet filters. I _____HATE_____ N2H2.

Yes, the schools do filter out a good deal of stuff that they need not filter.

Stinko is Japanese for GIBBERISH! There is no "ST" sound in Japanese unless it is preceded by a vowel! You can fake the sound by adding a 'u'... as in 'sutereo'...

Did you know that if you click on the video then keep hitting the "TAB" key it cycles through the hidden stuff? It puts a little yellow box around the clickable stuff... tab.key.youaremyfriend.com

Yeah, but check out the character info and some 'toons before watching Strong Bad's e-mails. They'll make more sense.
