More ramblings...

Hypnotism
Guess what? The night of Winterfest (Jan 29th), I was hypnotized! I have seen shows before at school, but have never been hypnotized myself. It was really neat, though I don't remember much of the event. Apparently, I ended up dancing for the site manager's wife...without a shirt on. Yeah, I was happy my entry card worked come the next Monday. Anyway, pictures can be found at Gary Conrad's website. Check them out. That's me with the pizza hat on, almost kissing that girl. Don't worry, we got within an inch of each other and then fell asleep before kissing.

The ipod phenomenon
I really don't understand the ipod phenomenon. There are better players out there, IMHO. Take for example the Creative Zen Micro. It's black and it glows blue. It's about the same size as an iPod mini (its only a little thicker). And you don't have to worry about using iTunes (which is an alright program, a bit of a hog, but alright) to transfer files. Yeah, this little device is on my wish list.

The Facebook

This website is quite popular with the college kids, myself included. Some look at it as a stalking tool. I look at it as an experiment in social networking. Just by knowing 90 people, I am connected to >3100 by 4 connections. It's like that game, 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon. It all depends how much information you put on the site. I mean, if you put your home address, phone number, and AIM name, people can hunt you down easily. Just be careful when adding friends.
