Welcome to Part 6! Everyone did a bang up job by hitting 10k in less than 12 days--11 days 19 hours and 18 minutes to be exact. A new record! 😀

For those not familiar with what we do here, Molly has been kind enough to put together a nice description.

Not sure what the Random thread is all about? Well, here's the answer to all your questions.

It's basically a restaurant. That serves breaststicks. And lots of cute fruit and veggies. And is patronized by a HO. And Tucker Carlson. Vin Diesel, too. Lots of race car drivers eat here, as well. We're very well respected by the Amish... one girl in particular is here almost all the time.

The food is great if you're low on iron. It's not on the menu, but you can ask about the special secret garlic cure home recipe. One of the hostesses often makes weather predictions, but she's not always around. I think she has another job with the government. Or a government. Something like that. One of the other hostesses says "Bitch, please," a lot, but she's joking... don't take it personally.

Forget anything you've heard about the girl who died here from arsenic poisoning. That was a long time ago, and she's still alive, anyway... just busy so she doesn't come in as much. Besides, a little arsenic adds a lot of flavor to just about any dish.

Pretty flowers by the entrance, hey? Lilis, they are. Beautiful. And the music is totally hopping... we have our very own DJ. Looks a little like Brad Pitt.

I guess that's pretty much all you need to know. I'm usually in the corner booth over there drinking a nice glass of wine. You're welcome to join me, anytime. We're open 24/7.

We've been through highs and lows in Part 5. From the final matches of Andre Agassi's career to the loss of the World's friend, Mr. Steve Irwin. May he rest in piece.

With all that said, let the green flag wave! Boogity Boogity Boogity!!!

I have a question...we all know that almost all med schools require 6 credits of english..I have 3 right now..to resolve this can i just take 3 this semester and put it down as Fall 2006..or could i even put it down as Spring 2007 if i wanted to take it next semester, or is that not even an option?
Yes that's an option. YOu just need it by matriculation.
 
ack - I'm beginning to hate amino acids 😡
Sorry to hear about your friend (the one who's self-destructing), but you can't force people not to be self-destructive. I speak from personal experience on this one.

Why do you hate amino acids? Amino acids rock. Pretty soon, I'm going to start reading about how to catabolize them, but I'm not ready for their imminent destruction yet. 😛
 
As for football. Man is sleeping in room with cable. *sigh*

My dad just got a new, HUGE HD TV. So I am watching football in high def, went fishing a bit, took a nap outside in the shade, watching NASCAR tonight.

*steals TypeA's Texas card* 😉

Also lots of playing with my precious niece, of course.

Edit: picked up a remote control boat for the lake. 🙂
 
And I just preordered Alias Season 5 (final season) due out November 21st.

BUT I just saw this. I want the artifact 🙁

But as one reviewer put it best, those of us who have collected all along get ripped off. 🙁

Totally lame. I have been collecting all along too. 🙁

I have to admit that I like biochem so far. It's pretty interesting. I just hate having to memorize stuff that has no logical system behind it. (like the naming system for amino acids) I'm doing pretty well so far.

👍 I'm watching Wash vs OU in high def right now while I study amino acids. My dad's TV is 65 inches!! It's like they're going to come right through the screen!

Hey Randomites!

I am all moved in and posting from my new place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(ok so there is a lot of unpacking yet to do but who cares)

I had a bit of a hassle with the cable modem but it's all solved now.

I am so happy to be finally HERE!

Yup that's what she's sitting on.

LOL about your sister!
 
Aww, thanks guys! 😍

On Monday, I'm starting a week-long optional course on disparities in health care (2/3 of the class is taking it), then a week of orientation, and only then am I actually really truly finally starting. 🙂

WB, Molly. I've been watching pre-allo for you. You missed the latest reincarnation of premed machine. 🙄
 
Penn State just got hammered by ND. Everything that could have possibly went wrong did. 😡 Charlie Wise is a joke, I can't stand that guy. Coaches football for 1 season and everyone thinks he is some kind of legendary coach. oohh im so bitter. :laugh: Next year. Beaver Stadium. ND goes down HARD!
 
Ok, I have realized that my eyes are too old for Chemistry. Is REALLY sad when you can see what the measurement is because..well...you can't freaking SEE!!!
 
Hey jlw - I had dinner at the Montgomery Inn Boathouse. 👍

Table at the window, gorgeous evening, onion straws, chicken and ribs combo with saratoga chips. Yum yum yum yum. 😀

*droooooooooools*

Ummmmmm................PENN STATE/NOTRE DAME !!!!!! 😀

yeah, um, I was watching that this afternoon, and it didn't go so well for y'all. 🙄 congrats to you on NYU though (and all your other interviews!)

NO!!!!!

:laugh: I never knew multi-quote could be so humiliating.

I tried to incriminate myself, too! And honestly- it was a fun movie. Stupid, but fun. (Aren't all of those kind?)

and if it helps, beary's teasing me about the Boathouse is waaaaaaay up there in level of meanness, so she just got me back on your behalf.


I'm watching someone I really care about self-destruct and I don't really know what to do about it. 🙁 I'll save ya'll the ugly details. If you want to know more, Q, you can try to catch me online later.

hope all turns out for the best. we're watching someone go down now, too, and nothing we can do. 🙁

Thank you!

The furniture is actually very tolerable. I keep finding the weirdest things... like a lifetime supply of chopsticks in one of the kitchen drawers... but on the whole I'm very pleased!

I just need to get a couple more pots and I'm going to be just fine. 🙂
