You know what sucks about school computers? Everything is blocked. I was trying to play "This is the Only Level", a really awesome game starring an elephant. Unfortunately, it was blocked for "cartoon violence". What do they expect kids these days to play, solitaire? Honestly. And it's not even violent, there's not blood, when the elephant dies you just get an upside down gray corpse at the bottom of the game. There's this really cool book I've been reading called "Heaven's Wager", it's about this dude who fakes his death so he can rip $20 million off of his bosses who ripped $20 million off of him. It's rocks, but not as much as Thr3e. Now there's an epic book. Did you know that "epic" is actually a reading term? I found that out in English...and it sorta puts a dimmer on the word.

To Behead a Crow

We're reading To Kill a Mockingbird for English, which is the insperation for the title of this post. Boo Radley's incident in the first chapter sorta reminds me of this really epic book I read called 3. I really shouldn't say why, because that would give away the biggest twist in the story, and there's a lot of them too. Speaking of epic, apparently there's this teaching program at my local university where they make their sophomores observe classes so they can confirm that this is what they want to teach, and those students are part of the EPIC program. I wanna be an EPIC student, they even write it in all caps. The word caps has so many definitions. Off the top of my head, I can think of the one you where, the ones on bottles and stuff, and the expression "to cap it all off'". What a resourceful word. You know those "I'm from the goverment and I'm here to help you" types? Those are the human resources people. I'm hoping to meet one someday. My friend is going to go vegetarian for a week to see what it's like. I don't think it'll work, because it's not just eating meat that's illegal, eggs, cheese, and milk count too. This whole random writing thing is fun. I don't even really have to think....all I need is a first topic and the rest comes naturally. I should do this more often.
