The school library seems to be actively attempting to hinder my research.

Just because they have a Necronomicon doesn't mean you should borrow it or read it. You have been warned.

No, I own my own copy of the Necronomicon. The issue here is them not informing me that a book I ordered through interlibrary loan came in two weeks ago, and charging me money to use the microfilm readers (I could tolerate being charged to use the microfilm reader that's connected to a printer, but to use an ordinary microfilm reader? Intolerable).

Okay, so get this... sodium: poison. Chloride: poison. Put them together you get sodium chloride aka table salt, which most of us consume in one form or another every day.

Is that funky or what?

I can't, off-hand, think of anything else where two poisons can be combined to form something that's edible.

That just blows my mind...

Late winter in Minnesota: Yesterday it rained, the snow was melting, spring was in the air. Last night it got really cold, snowed, the wind was howling. Now all the semi-melted...everything, is froze solid, but covered with a little windblown white powder.

I think I'll have some pancakes.

Well, there goes another person from my life...

A chick I've wanted to date for nearly 5 years, has completely disappeared and I have no way of contacting her!

Hmm... maybe we should take out the "Un" in this thread, especially since it's been going on so long...

I never have to take another midterm exam. I am officially done with midterms. Forever.
