Holy Crap!

Holy Crap is right... I haven't posted on this thing in ages. As you all know, I have been at home for the Holiday's and plan to return to Morgantown soon given that the shower is fixed at my place of residence.
With that out of the way; I'll start with my grades from last semester as well as the classes I will be taking when I return to school. I realize that I've probably told you the grades or indicated that they were good, but you can put them in perspective for yourself.

Apart from all of that mumbo jumbo, you know I went to St. Albans several times during break; Once for Christmas with Erin's family the other time to just be lazy -- Something I have no problems doing. Both visits were awesome -- Her family is hilarious, all 25+ people that were there, and I don't think they hate me which is really awesome.

I've just finished reading The Legend of the Syndicate. Which was a pretty interesting look at the history of online gaming through the eyes of an online guild. I thought it was cool, although there were probably 10+ spelling errors in the book and some of the ideas repeated a lot in a short period of time. Otherwise, good read.

I also finished reading Free Software, Free Society. It contains a bunch of essays written by a "hacker" that got his start at MIT that has really revolutionary ideas regarding proprietary laws and software. Sounds boring, I know. But I'm a hoss. You knew that, to be sure.
