I’ve done traffic school three times in the past 4 years, and am about to do it again. Four hour traffic school may suck big balls, but it prevents the ticket from going on your record. I had gotten in a car accident in November, and then got a speeding ticket a week later. Well, since it had taken place in the village that we know most of the cops, my cop friend told me to take it to court, plead innocent, and if the cop wasn’t there, I’d get the case thrown out. And if the cop was there? Plead guilty, they’ll just give you supervision and a fine. Fair nuff 50/50 chance.

Yesterday I got another speeding ticket lol. Wasn’t able to talk my way out of it, got me on camera going 45 in a 30. Since it is 2006, I’m doing traffic school on that one. ANYWAY, I go to court today and the judge was calling people up and they were pleading guilty. Each time she’d ask for people’s records from the public defendant, and he would tell him their past convictions. Depending on how many convictions and how severe, she’d give varying verdicts. So it seemed that most people with one or two speeding violations on their record were getting “supervision and four hour traffic school.” So I figured I’d get something like that, with my accident and this one ticket I went to court with a lawyer and got myself one year supervision for pleading guilty in 2004.

Judge calls me up. How do you plead? Guilty, your honor (unfortunately, the fucking cop who gave me a ticket was there, so i had to plead guilty). Judge ask for my record. The defendant was like, ummmm, nothing, your honor. She eyed me closely (I made the mistake of not shaving and staying up late on V-Day, so I was all groggy eyed and shitlooking), and goes, “You’re 20 years old, a few months away from 21. Giving you supervision won’t really matter since you’ll be getting your over-21 license in July. Just be more careful, and don’t speed. Case dismissed.”

PWNED

And then I went to greektown, met up with some friends from UIC, had some frappe at Artopolis, and came to school to do this quiz for English. WOOT.

Thanks to my buddy Lil Hammie for his genius calculations.

Steven, your movie star double is Will Smith

A joker like you needs to be played by someone charming, someone who isn’t afraid to get a little silly — but someone who always knows the difference between being outrageous and being obnoxious. That’s why Will Smith would be perfect for the part. With his dazzling smile, addictive laugh, and great comedic timing, people would immediately identify with the lighthearted fun you bring to this world. Like Will, you love laughing — and making other people laugh, too.

Back in school, were you the one making prank phone calls or organizing spoofs of all the teachers? Sure you’ve matured at least a little bit since then, but you’ve still probably got that 14-carat sense of humor. Because of that, you’re probably the center of attention at parties, as friends gather to hear you making a mockery of everything from current events to the computer-illiterate idiot who sits next to you at work. You, like Will, don’t want to take life too seriously, and that’s what will shine through if the Fresh Prince of comedy plays you in the movie of your life.

Wow, how sad yet so true. This is by far the most accurate test, cause Will Smith is the friggin shiznit!!!!

Wow, that was one of the worst Super Bowls I’ve ever seen. Everything about it sucked. The game, the ref, the halftime show, the commercials. Granted, there were a few commercials that were clever and made me laugh, but it was nothing like those of other years that had me laughing every other minute. So I was rooting for the Seahawks. Big deal, they lost, it wasn’t the Bears so I won’t lose any sleep over it. But even if I was rooting for the Steelers, it wouldn’t have made the event any better. The game was utter crap. It felt like I was watching two high school teams play. By halftime, I was getting the feeling that the game was fixed. By the third quarter, I was guaranteeing it to myself. The refs were so paid off it wasn’t even funny. Hell, European Soccer does a better job at NOT making it so obvious (ok, thats a big exaggeration, European Soccer makes it extremely obvious, but you get the point). There was nothing professional about that game.

The commercials were crappy. I haven’t met a single person who understood the GoDaddy commercial. There were mixed opinions on the best commercial, but they all weren’t anything outstanding. Obviously, beer commercials were probably the funniest. I personally found the Ameriquest ones to be the funniest. But still, nothing outrageously funny. They either sucked, didn’t make sense, or made me chuckle just a bit.

Mick Jagger needs to retire. I have nothing against the Stones. They were an upheaviing band in world culture. But seriously, its time to retire. I watched the game in HD. I could see all the wrinkles, pits, and disgusting facial features of Mick Jagger’s already mutilated face. Plus their performance sucked. I’ve never seen the Stones perform before, but damn, did it suck. I was squinting to see if I could spot a team of paramedics on the side of the stage, holding oxygen masks just in case.

In conclusion, make next year’s Super Bowl not suck that much. A wardrobe malfunction isn’t such a bad idea now, is it?

Chuck Norris does not follow fashion trends, they follow him. But then he turns around and kicks their ass. Nobody follows Chuck Norris.

Random Chuck Norris fact FTW. So this quarter system is cool and all, but I’ve only been in class for a month and already midterms are here. On top of that, I got papers due every week and a major presentation in two weeks. Life has been uneventful. Back to the monotonous school then work routine. Currently reading The Jungle for my American Novel class, and its probably the most fucked up book I’ve read.

Pre-CU servers are beggining to pop up across the web. Actually, only two so far are public projects: SWG-Emu and SWG-Monster. A person from Wanderhome is privately starting one specifically for Wanderhome. Everything is currently in development for all three projects, and it isn’t expected to hit live till the summer. Monster and Emu boast 1000 person capacities, but theres more than 2000 people out there who will want to play on a pre-cu server. I’m just glad the Wanderhome one will be centered on Wanderhome alone, since it is a small community.

Thats it. I’ve also been using Blockbuster Online to increase my DVD collection. Its a good thing that DVD-R discs are now almost as cheap as CDs.
