my brothers say i'm rather quick witted, but all i can think of right now is ouch.
Hey, i wonder if thats why that flabby teacher of mine is always so grumpy.
I'm in door county right now, will be heading off to Eau-Claire in a few days. I'm not from here though, was originaly from the west coast where there were mountains, rivers, and pine trees. Here in door county (Chicogo/Florida during the summer months) people think a bump in the road that goes up 20 feet is a big hill. Just an extremlly diferent culture and I miss the ocean; thats all the :-( means.
As far as the internet connection, i'm lucky to connect at 21. Ever try playing counter strike with a ping of 2250?
no i usually have a cable modem...though when i really want soem stuff and have 20+ downlaods ive played diablo 2 wiht a ping of 12000...well i was in the game wiht that ping...can hardly call it playing and hey rib mountain the tallest place in wisconsin is only 8 ft short of being an official mountain (2000 ft)...i wanna live in japan we have no actual diversity here all rednecks and a few techies like me (im a newbie and im one of the most knowleadgable people in all of marathon county about linux)...its sad sorry for the rant...and all the "..."
well then its not actually a hill...its a mountain...but umm its like texas where the "nuclear power plant cooling pond" is a lake (wtf? they swim in a place that the name literally translates to "nasty water" and its warmer than any bath ive ever taken)...and hey if you miss the ocean go to one of the great lakes...itll be exactly the same except it wont taste as bad (uck salt water is nasty) and there are some decent bluffs down by madison if you just want some scenery (and YES! there is a river at the wisconsin dells no matter what your told it was the original attraction) SO THERE (i have pride in a state i hate :-( )
Yeah, the lake is great, but the waves on the lakes just can't compare to the waves that crash onto the rocks a hundred feet into the air out west.
I like WI here, and there are tons of great things here that i love, but my roots are still out there by the ocean.
i musta been talkin to someone else about this stuff at the same time i thought you were originally from virginia...if id knonw west coast i woulda agreed it be better there...though dont people rarely drive imports there? mostly domestic...i couldnt live in a place like that i hope to never drive anything domestic unless its performance classic or free...
