well when the alarm rings for the 4 th time consecutively this morning, you take it less and less seriously. BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO GET OUT! CAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW!

That makes sense. Sorry, but I was just giving you a little trouble. :wink: :biggrin:

Pacemaker, you might want to do WELL on the PSAT essay, not good. And there is a difference between the occassional typo & not giving a crap about what you write & the impression it leaves.

It is somewhat disheartening to see the quality of the writing in posts on message boards throughout the Internet. There's a message board for car enthusiats in the MD/DC area and there are any number of folks that post on that message board that are unable to string a coherent sentence together. Not sure who these folks are, but they sure don't inspire confidence about the future of this country. I'm relatively young, but I'm educated and hard working, so I take pride in everything I do, even posting on the Internet. That's not to say I won't make typos from time to time, but I try to write sentences that make sense. Nevertheless, for the young guys on here, someday you'll realize that ALL of your actions are a reflection of who you are. To say you're only careless when it doesn't matter (i.e., posting on the Internet) really suggests that you are lazy and/or sloppy. If you don't care, you're not alone, many of your contemporaries don't either. Consider being an adult and taking the extra ten seconds to sound like one.

sorry i usually get tired reading after a few sentences of such posts. call it short attention span commonly found in our generation thanks to the television, non-ceessant violen video games, and porn.

An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his
employer-contractor of his plans to leave the house-building business and
live a more
leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss
the paycheck,
but he needed to retire. They could get by.
The contractor was sorry to see his good worker goes and asked if
he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said
yes, but
in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted
to shoddy
workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end a
dedicated career.

When the carpenter finished his work the employer came to inspect the house.
He handed
the front-door key to the carpenter. "This is your house," he said, "my
gift to you."
The carpenter was shocked! What a shame! If he had only known he was
building his own
house, he would have done it all so differently.

So it is with us. We build our lives, a day at a time, often putting less
than our best into the
building. Then with a shock we realize we have to live in the house we have
built. If we could
do it over, we'd do it much differently. But we cannot go back.

You are the carpenter. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect
a wall.
"Life is a do-it-yourself project," someone has said. Your attitudes and
the choices you make
today, build the "house" you live in tomorrow. Build wisely!

OMG! my grade 12 physics teacher handed this story out on the first day of class. Everyone just threw it in the reycling bin on the way out. And at the end of the semester, the class had a C- average. i remember cause i remember reading the first 2 sentences, unlike my classmates, until i threw it out, caue i thought the old man was gay.


it doesn't matter how good a message is. People tend to forget wise advices.

You're proving what's obvious from your initial post. Your parents must be so proud.

i don't think any parents of a middle-aged man holding quarrels with an 18 year old would be proud.

This quarrel is just disheartening. I've been a lurker and member for about 2 years now, and in this short period of time I've seen an amazing amount of degradation due to people who just don't want to respect the atmosphere of the forum. Please try not to be childish... respect the maturity (read: intelligence) of the crowd. I realize that I'm a lot younger than most of the other owners here, but I still have the ability to relate on many levels and carry on a relevant conversation...

Sorry about the rant. :redface:

Well I took it today and I am in my bio class typing this while everyone else is doing a lab. IT SUCKED SO MUCH!!! For the English segment, it was easy but math was a bit of a pain. Due to no calculator. Have fun at work everyone!
