03:08 <Stewie-arma> just met yeah

04:20 <Lucifer_arma> and you only have a half page of quotes and a page of notes?
04:20 <Lucifer_arma> man
04:20 <Lucifer_arma> you need to work on your communicate-with-hot-chicks skills
04:20 <Stewie-arma> right now I'm just trying to get through the first week of school with an A+
04:22 <Stewie-arma> my school sucks, they say they aren't going to five us hw at all, yet I've gotten about 2-4 hours of homework per night
04:22 <Stewie-arma> stupid sophpmores

05:33 <Lucifer_arma> stupid <insert your favorite hate group here>
05:34 <Lucifer_arma> now I need a 54-inch cylinder that's one inch in diameter
05:34 <Lucifer_arma> GodTodd: give me your penis
05:34 <Stewie-arma> hmmm how did I miss-spell sophomores?
05:34 <Lucifer_arma> being stupid and sophomoric, no doubt
05:34 <Stewie-arma> exactly
05:35 <Lucifer_arma> "There's been a lot of progress made, and that's what people have go to understand," <--- bush has a scottish accent
05:36 <Stewie-arma> was that him on the Iraq war?
05:37 <Stewie-arma> almost done with my biography
05:37 <Stewie-arma> well her biography

05:45 <Lucifer_arma> no, that was him on n'arleans
05:48 <Lucifer_arma> http://www.amazon.com/60-Hardwood-Jo-Staff-inches/dp/B0000CA2PY/ref=sr_1_1/104-3212751-7242364?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1188446014&sr=1-1
05:48 * Lucifer_arma thinks that after only 2 days of this martial arts class, he already knows more about japanese martial arts than luke-jr will ever know
05:48 <Lucifer_arma> (it's an aikido based class)
05:49 <GodTodd> nawlins
05:50 <GodTodd> class aikido extends martialArts?
05:51 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, followed by class MartialArtsWeaponry extends Aikido
05:52 <Lucifer_arma> he says he's teaching us real martial arts, not sporting martial arts, so we won't be fighting one another
05:52 <Lucifer_arma> I wonder if that means I"ll know how to kill with one of these things when I'm done with the class
05:52 <Lucifer_arma> he's all into the philosophy though, which is pretty cool
05:53 <GodTodd> one of what things?
05:57 <GodTodd> that's the brunt of martial arts
05:58 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, true, but, see, do I know how to kill with a sword?
05:58 <GodTodd> sure
05:58 <Lucifer_arma> specifically, a dueling sword, such as a rapier?
05:58 <GodTodd> slash the fucker :)
05:58 <Lucifer_arma> I don't think so. I think I know how to do a few neat things with it, and I could probably defend myself with a sword in the style that I've learned against anybody unfamiliar with the weapon
05:59 <Lucifer_arma> but can I kill someone with it? Not intentionally, I don't think.
05:59 <Lucifer_arma> I've learned it as a sport, which is different, and I'm not terribly experienced either.
06:00 <GodTodd> truly
06:00 * GodTodd feels better about his govt II class than he did about govt I
06:01 <GodTodd> the teacher is a political consultant that works for congressmen
06:09 <Lucifer_arma> that's fun :)
06:10 <GodTodd> in fact...today he had a congressman ignore his advice on calling for that gay senator's resignation....now other people are making the headlines cuz they did it first
06:10 <GodTodd> heh
06:11 <GodTodd> last night/today was when the congressman asked him about it
06:11 <Lucifer_arma> haha
06:11 <Lucifer_arma> he needs to resign not because he's gay, but because he's fucking in airport restrooms
06:11 <GodTodd> that and calling male escorts
06:11 <GodTodd> and lying
06:11 <Lucifer_arma> if I can't fuck my wife in an airport restroom, a damn lawmaker can't solicit sex from random individuals there either!
06:12 <GodTodd> and just an all-around republican :)
06:12 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, seems to be pretty much the standard for republican behavior these days, doesn't it?
06:13 <GodTodd> that's what the teacher was pointing out...the gop has really been taking it up the ass (no pun intended, really!) lately
06:13 <Lucifer_arma> well, he says he's training us to fight multiple attackers at least
06:13 <GodTodd> martial arts is really for defense anyway
06:13 <Lucifer_arma> sorry if I'm more interested in martial arts than politics right now, but the two are related after all
06:13 <GodTodd> in case you get mugged
06:13 -!- Stewie-arma [n=Stewie-a@cpe-72-130-168-7.san.res.rr.com] has quit ["sleep again"]
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> I'm really going to carry around a 54-inch stick "in case I get mugged"
06:14 <GodTodd> hell...i hate politics personally...i only take this shit cuz i have to ;)
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> definitely considering taking a hand-to-hand class in the spring
06:14 <GodTodd> Lucifer_arma: sure, why not?
06:14 <GodTodd> you can rest assured you *won't* get mugged then :)
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> well, it might be illegal :)
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> I wanted to start carrying a rapier, but it turns out they're illegal to carry
06:14 <GodTodd> that's what, 4.5 ft?
06:15 <GodTodd> call it a walking stick :)
06:15 <Lucifer_arma> I asked a cop if they enforced it, and he said they would (just one cop though)
06:15 <Lucifer_arma> it's a little long for a walking stick
06:15 <GodTodd> ok...walking *staff*
06:15 <GodTodd> ;)
06:15 <Lucifer_arma> no doubt I'd carry one if I knew I was going someplace potentially dangerous
06:15 <Lucifer_arma> if I know how to use it, and I'm going someplace known potentially dangerous, I'm stupid not to take it
06:15 <GodTodd> anymore *any*where is potentially dangerous :/
06:16 <Lucifer_arma> but I don't know how to use it yet :)
06:16 <Lucifer_arma> amazon's only got 1 of the appropriate length
06:16 <GodTodd> i don't either...but if i had to use one in an emergency, i think i could figure it out enough ;)
06:17 <Lucifer_arma> the rest are too short :(
06:17 <GodTodd> you're like a chick looking for a date
06:17 <Lucifer_arma> I'll see how much it is with shipping, if it's not too bad, I'll just order one
06:17 <GodTodd> only one guy has a big enough dick
06:17 <GodTodd> the rest are itty bitty
06:17 <Lucifer_arma> well, amazon's got plenty that are too long too, I'm just not mentioning those because they're called something else
06:18 <Lucifer_arma> so they're not in my search
06:19 <GodTodd> heh
06:20 <Lucifer_arma> the problem with amazon reviewers is you don't know if they know what they're talking about
06:20 <Lucifer_arma> especially when they're talking trash
06:20 <GodTodd> yeah
06:20 <Lucifer_arma> and when you don't know much about the subject, it's hard to tell which reviewer's got truth on his side and which don't
06:21 <GodTodd> "i, like, ordered this beaver, right, and instead of a chick's snatch they sent me this weird animal with buck teeth. stupid dumbheads!"
06:21 <GodTodd> ;)
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> well, question answered
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> there is apparently one and only one 54" staff available for sale on the internet
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> plenty of 50", but the teacher explicitly told us not to get one of those
06:28 <Lucifer_arma> so it's a simple question, do I want to wait for it?
06:28 <Lucifer_arma> probably should, it would be here before I could make one, and I've got to study and shit in the meantime
06:28 <GodTodd> i would
06:28 <GodTodd> how much does it go for?
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> $14
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> it has 3 reviews, one bad, and two good
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> I don't need it for fighting, though, I just need it for practice
06:30 <GodTodd> that's not bad
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> if I was going to get one for fighting, I'd definitely make one instead
06:31 <Lucifer_arma> hell, it's cheaper than a foil :)
06:31 <Lucifer_arma> $7 shipping, though
06:31 <GodTodd> wow
06:31 <Lucifer_arma> well, the damn thing's over 4' long :)
06:31 <GodTodd> true
06:31 <Lucifer_arma> hardwood, too, they're not terribly light, but not terribly heavy either
06:32 <Lucifer_arma> ok, I ordered it
06:32 <GodTodd> not exactly easy to ship :)
06:32 <Lucifer_arma> I'm sure they know what they're doing :)
06:32 <Lucifer_arma> my foil came in a really cool long and skinny box
06:32 <GodTodd> i should hope so
06:33 <Lucifer_arma> yep, definitely take a hand-to-hand class next spring so I don't wind up buying yet another weapon
06:34 <GodTodd> ah shit...i need to make sure i can log into my physics class
06:39 <Vanhayes> heh, I took a karate class for a year, I quit when I knocked over the sensei after he asked me to kick him in the chest to show how to move with a blow
06:40 <Vanhayes> he was supposed to roll with it I guess, but he just landed on his ass
06:40 <Lucifer_arma> my wife showed me how to move with a blow
06:40 <Vanhayes> I decided paying 30 some a month for that wasnt worth it
06:40 <Lucifer_arma> heh
06:40 <Lucifer_arma> these are on financial aid :)
06:41 <Vanhayes> nice
06:41 <Vanhayes> how much is it though?
06:41 <Lucifer_arma> also, being in a community college, there's some pressure to teach *something* in the semester, so they can't string you along promising to teach you something
06:41 <Lucifer_arma> being out of district, it's $120 for the semester
06:41 <Lucifer_arma> that's twice a week for 16 weeks
06:41 <Lucifer_arma> in-district is only $60
06:41 <Vanhayes> hmm, that seems pretty reasonable
06:42 <Lucifer_arma> (in-district pays a portion of their property taxes to ACC)
06:42 <Vanhayes> a semester is how long? 3, 4 monthd?
06:42 <Vanhayes> months*
06:42 <Lucifer_arma> from this week until December 16
06:42 <Lucifer_arma> otherwise, 16 weeks / 4 weeks ~= 4 months
06:43 <Lucifer_arma> I'm not interested in karate, though. I want something that I can learn to kick ass quickly, but isn't just about kicking ass
06:43 <Vanhayes> karate is all about the defense, not much offense
06:43 <Lucifer_arma> actually, I want to get in shape, that's most important, so I'm open to possibilities I may not otherwise be open to
06:44 <Vanhayes> boxing is best for getting into shape, ive found
06:44 <Lucifer_arma> I'm not interested in karate because it's been sensationalized too much
06:44 <Lucifer_arma> too many concussions. :) I want something that won't fuck me up in the process, too.
06:44 <Vanhayes> karate was the most boring thing ive ever paid to do for an hour and a half
06:44 <Lucifer_arma> boxing training might be great for getting into shape, though
06:44 <Lucifer_arma> well, I've always been interested in stick fighting, so this class is really interesting
06:45 <Vanhayes> heh, well you dont really have to box, just train and sparring will get you in good shape
06:45 <Vanhayes> ya, stick fighting would be fun
06:45 <Vanhayes> hmm, I might have to take up boxing again, i miss it
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> it also lacks the pretension I was expecting, which is neat
06:46 <GodTodd> ok...i can log in...so now i can do my homework this weekend :)
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> maybe that pretension will come out later, though
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> it is the first week, so folks are still being shy, and the teacher is pretty dominating
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> he's not aggressive or anything, he's just very assertive :)
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> ok, what I really want is a martial arts class that won't make me wear that weird kit people wear
06:47 <Vanhayes> thats the problem I found with most martial arts, the teachers are usually pretty arogant and cocky
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> I don't care how traditional it is, or how comfortable it is, or any of that crap
06:47 <Vanhayes> those helmets and gloves made of foam?
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, this guy's arrogant and cocky, but that's fine
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> no, I don't mind the protective gear
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> it's the uniform
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> the gi, is that what it's called?
06:48 <Lucifer_arma> this class doesn't have such a thing
06:48 <GodTodd> the robe?
06:48 <Vanhayes> oh, ya the gui in karate
06:48 <Vanhayes> the white thing
06:48 <Lucifer_arma> you *can* wear it if you like, and some of the kids who've been his students for a while wear it, but I'd rather not
06:48 <Vanhayes> the guy here made us wear it
06:48 <Lucifer_arma> if sweat pants and a t-shirt aren't going to cut it, I'll find a different class
06:48 <Vanhayes> I think he just wanted the extra $80 though
06:49 <Lucifer_arma> I think that shit is totally unnecessary
06:49 <GodTodd> that's the beauty of a CC class....if you have to buy something else for the class the money doesn't go into the teacher's pocket ;)
06:49 <Lucifer_arma> if it's all about the mind, then why do you have to wear the uniform?
06:50 <Lucifer_arma> indeed, they don't make you buy anything for the kinesiology classes if they don't have to, so I'm safe to take almost any martial arts here without having to buy that shit
06:50 <GodTodd> yep
06:50 <Vanhayes> I think its a mix between dicsipline and tradition
06:50 <Lucifer_arma> this staff I just ordered ws an elective purchase, I could've blown it off and bought a broomstick or something (in fact, I went to HEB to get one a little while ago, but they didn't have any)
06:51 <Lucifer_arma> I don't really need to buy anything, but this class comes with a workout I can do at home, which the fencing class didn't, really
06:51 <Lucifer_arma> but to do the workout, I need the stick, knowwhatImean? ;)
06:51 <GodTodd> bah...why learn to fight in something you wouldn't wear down the street (when you might need to use the knowledge)/
06:51 <GodTodd> ?*
06:52 <Lucifer_arma> you know, most of those martial arts kids are posers luke-jr-loves-japanese-for-no-good-reason kids
06:52 <GodTodd> yep
06:52 <Lucifer_arma> "oh hey, it's neat, it's like in the movies!"
06:53 <GodTodd> "i'ma be bruce lee or smth"
06:53 <Lucifer_arma> "I saw this in Waikaiunobunojuno!"
06:53 <GodTodd> "Poke me man!"
06:54 <Vanhayes> thats where boxing came in for me, none of the unnessesary stuff, just training and practice, wear whatever you want( within reason), and you didnt have to buy anything if extra if you didnt want to
06:54 * GodTodd never thought of that...might work up a boxing workout...
06:55 * Lucifer_arma has considered a boxing workout before
06:55 <Lucifer_arma> but stick fighting is cool! :)
06:55 <GodTodd> don't need a lot of space or equipment
06:55 <Lucifer_arma> it's your basic "anything's a weapon" art
06:55 <Vanhayes> its alot of running mostly
06:56 <GodTodd> the bouncing and punching don't hurt ;)
06:56 <Lucifer_arma> the routine we did today felt like an infantry routine, and he keeps pushing the idea that what we're learning is infantry techniques
06:56 <GodTodd> martial == military
06:56 <Lucifer_arma> yep
06:56 <Vanhayes> probably was infantry training back in the day
06:56 <GodTodd> love, the kind you clean up with a mop and bucket
06:57 <Lucifer_arma> well, it was complete with advances and stuff
06:57 <Lucifer_arma> man, it really felt like all we needed were shieldmen in between us and we could've conquered the town
06:58 <GodTodd> heh
06:58 * GodTodd has physics lecture and physics lab tomorrow
06:58 <Lucifer_arma> but it's cool, I almost worked up a sweat, and he's telling us we're going slow because it's early
06:59 <Lucifer_arma> it should get pretty hardcore later on, I hope he hurries it up
06:59 * Lucifer_arma has work tomorrow
06:59 * GodTodd is a kept man :)
06:59 <Lucifer_arma> my wife told me not to let my youngest see me practicing with a stick
06:59 <GodTodd> haha
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> what is she thinking? When I got him the foam swords and we went off
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> it totally defused him
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> he quit playing like everything was a sword and started taking it seriously
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> still, she's probably right, this would probably set him off with everything's a weapon again
07:00 <GodTodd> probably
07:01 <GodTodd> too many things look like sticks :)
07:01 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, like sticks
07:01 <GodTodd> yep :)
07:01 <Lucifer_arma> so, I got some flip-flops so I could easily deshoe for class
07:01 <Lucifer_arma> then I went and sat in my statics class (which was exceptionally boring, what with the intro-to-vectors lecture today)
07:02 <Lucifer_arma> this guy next to me was complaining about it being lukewarm, but I was freezing my toes off!
07:02 * GodTodd wears sandals during the warm months
07:02 * Lucifer_arma hasn't worn sandals or anything like that in years
07:02 <Lucifer_arma> but now I'm considering getting some real sandals, because flip-flops hurt to wear
07:03 * GodTodd hates taking more than 3 seconds to put shoes on if it can be avoided
07:03 <Lucifer_arma> but then, flip-flops are only for wearing while walking, when you're sitting you're supposed to take them off anyway :)
07:03 <GodTodd> yeah...flip flops feel like they're gonna cut my foot in half
07:03 <Lucifer_arma> they never feel stable is the problem, I think
07:03 <GodTodd> probably
07:03 <GodTodd> my sandals rock
07:03 <GodTodd> :)
07:04 <Lucifer_arma> maybe I'll go see what sort of sandals I can get at payless
07:04 <GodTodd> only problem is if they get wet...then they get slick
07:04 <Lucifer_arma> is it worth getting them really cheap?
07:04 <GodTodd> mine are 13$ ones from walmart
07:04 <GodTodd> i love them
07:05 <Lucifer_arma> better wait till spring, theoretically we're about to hit the cold season
07:05 <Lucifer_arma> might drop below 70 outside
07:05 <GodTodd> wow...i might have to start wearing shoes soon :/
07:05 <Lucifer_arma> and I've already spent enough money on shit to take this class my way
07:06 <Lucifer_arma> the rest of that financial aid is supposed to get spread out over the next few months to augment our income
07:07 <Lucifer_arma> unless these flip-flops get unwearable
07:07 <Lucifer_arma> $3 at academy, I am such a cheap bastard
07:07 <GodTodd> mine are $3 from walmart
07:07 <GodTodd> heh
07:08 <Lucifer_arma> well, I can't wear them to work, or to chemistry
07:08 * GodTodd doesn't have to use a specific java ide :)
07:08 <Lucifer_arma> same deal if I went and got sandals
07:10 <Lucifer_arma> that's cool. too bad they won't let you use any language, though ;)
07:10 <GodTodd> hrmm...am i gonna have to wear closed toed shoes for physics lab?
07:10 <Lucifer_arma> probably
07:10 <Lucifer_arma> it's a rule at my school
07:10 <GodTodd> probably is here too
07:10 <GodTodd> i'll wear shoes just in case tomorrow
07:10 <Lucifer_arma> look, you're going to be dealing with significant masses, you don't really want your toes exposed to them anyway
07:11 <GodTodd> that's what i was figuring
07:11 <Vanhayes> #night
07:11 <armabot> Good night Vanhayes!
07:11 -!- Vanhayes [n=Vanhayes@stjhnbsu83w-156034192245.nb.aliant.net] has quit ["Quitted"]
07:11 * GodTodd is happy to forgo the memory-sucking programs and just use kate and the commandline
07:11 <GodTodd> :)
07:11 <Lucifer_arma> :)
07:12 <Lucifer_arma> you know, I have this text editor....
07:12 <GodTodd> haha
07:12 <Lucifer_arma> well, it doesn't do java right now
07:12 <GodTodd> kate does :P
07:12 <Lucifer_arma> and it lacks some basic features that might really irritate you
07:12 <Lucifer_arma> kate is pretty nice, though
07:12 <GodTodd> like saving and typing? ;)
07:12 <GodTodd> i like kate
07:12 <Lucifer_arma> handles saving and typing just fine :)
07:13 <Lucifer_arma> search and replace may work, I don't remember if I finished it or not
07:13 <GodTodd> heh
07:13 <Lucifer_arma> probably it should work, but doesn't, and I ran out of time
07:14 <GodTodd> i've gotten pretty used to kate for dev work now
07:14 <Lucifer_arma> you might investigate quanta sometime
07:14 <GodTodd> yeah...haven't gotten around to that yet :)
07:15 <Lucifer_arma> quanta actually has the ui I like the most, it just has a lot of junk in it for most of what I do
07:15 <Lucifer_arma> because it's centered around html/xml development, so it has a whole bunch of ui stuff for that
07:15 <Lucifer_arma> but I did use it for a long time
07:15 <GodTodd> ah
07:15 <Lucifer_arma> even for php coding
07:15 <Lucifer_arma> well, I guess that's what it's for
07:15 <Lucifer_arma> even for python coding :)
07:16 <GodTodd> :)
07:16 <Lucifer_arma> I'm a go grab a smoke, and then get to bed
07:16 <Lucifer_arma> I'm really sleepy
07:16 <GodTodd> i should too...class at 8:30
07:16 <Lucifer_arma> that statics class was boring, and the martial arts didn't quite energize me
07:16 <Lucifer_arma> maybe after that staff comes in it'll get more energetic for me
07:16 <GodTodd> perhaps
07:16 <GodTodd> :)
07:17 <Lucifer_arma> well, then I can push it at home at my own pace, rather than waiting while the instructor slows it down for one kid who's having trouble
07:17 <GodTodd> right
07:18 <Lucifer_arma> which he did today
07:18 <Lucifer_arma> heh, this girl asked if she could film him doing the form on her cell phone, so she can study it
07:18 <Lucifer_arma> I couldn't imagine, really, I couldn't. I could see wanting to sketch it out real quick on paper so you can do step-by-step
07:19 <Lucifer_arma> but what's the point of watching a video of your teacher doing it?
07:19 <Lucifer_arma> anyway, bbl, probably in the morning
07:19 <GodTodd> night

20:24 <Lucifer_arma> So long so long and thanks--for all the fiiiiish
20:28 <Lucifer_arma> what absolutely doesn't make sense in this movie is that Ford shows up with a shopping cart full of beer to placate the construction crew, and then takes Arthur to the pub
20:28 <Lucifer_arma> why?
20:29 <Lucifer_arma> in every other version of the story, in a rare moment of consistence, Ford talks Prosser into laying in front of the bulldozer
20:29 <Lucifer_arma> they could have put in one more minute of footage to do that
20:30 <Lucifer_arma> then it wouldn't feel so completely off for Ford to show up with a shopping cart full of beer to invite Arthur to the pub
20:32 <Lucifer_arma> ah, I'll just go outside and read my textbook there rather than bitch about the hhgttg movie
20:33 <spidey> Lucifer_arma,
20:33 <Lucifer_arma> spidey:
20:33 <spidey> you talking to yourself again, or do i have the guy muted?
20:34 <spidey> hrm
20:34 <spidey> how hard would it be to password a external hdd
20:34 <Lucifer_arma> talking to myself
20:34 <Lucifer_arma> beats me
20:34 <spidey> my brother keeps taking mine and putting porn and stupid shit on it
20:34 <Lucifer_arma> probably you need to encrypt it, maybe split it into two partitions
20:35 <Lucifer_arma> one that has the client software needed to decrypt the other
20:35 <Lucifer_arma> assuming client software is needed
20:35 <Lucifer_arma> well, in your brother's case, you might get away with just making it ext3, if you've got a linux installation, that is
20:35 <Lucifer_arma> then he can't see it in windows anyway, but he might destroy it on accident in that case :/
20:35 <spidey> i do
20:35 <spidey> problem is
20:36 <spidey> i have 65gb of data on it i don't wanna lose :/
20:36 <spidey> and neither my windows, gentoo, or even servers have enough space left to hold it
20:36 <spidey> heh
20:37 <Lucifer_arma> http://www.cpc.unc.edu/restools/datasecurity/externaldrive
20:37 <spidey> it's always in use :p
20:37 <spidey> i stream music/movies from it
20:38 <Lucifer_arma> that guide isn't helpful
20:38 <Lucifer_arma> I suppose it's possible the option I want to find doesn't exist
20:39 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, maybe he's stocking the beer :p
20:39 <spidey> plus you can get liquor at a bar :D
20:39 <spidey> and brb
20:39 <spidey> updating my drivers
20:40 <Lucifer_arma> my point is whatever explanation that can be dreamed up is insufficient in light of the fact taht that scene, even in the original series, wasn't more than 5 minutes long
20:40 <Lucifer_arma> they could have cut it down a bit and still done it that way
20:40 <spidey> heh
20:40 <Lucifer_arma> I realize this is a story that's expected to be changed in new mediums, but this change just doesn't make sense
20:41 <Lucifer_arma> anyway, I'm taking my book outside so I'll quit looking for stupid mistakes in this movie instead of reading the textbook
20:41 <spidey> lol
21:03 <Lucifer_arma> too much sunlight outside to read a book :(

is a site that has tools, maps, and other various items. It orignally only existed as a server control panel, but I slowly began adding stuff such as a homepage and tools.
