A few notes...

It's finals week, and I've got papers due all over and after being up all night writing, was called out of bed at 2:30 this afternoon to play (with water) in a Cords-Rox pong tournament... work 8 1/2 hours tomorrow, and a final on Tuesday... things are pretty crazy right now, so I just thought I'd make a few notes.

First, as for the next couple of days I probably won't be adding much of anything new (maybe a few pictures or something when I take breaks from writing) so I would say go back and read some older entries that you might have missed. Or not, whatever. I definitely encourage you to add more comments to the last entry and let us know what you think. The nice anonymous person was right- I didn't really have time to start a huge fight, but I felt it was an important issue and wanted to write about it, and then definitely had to defend my point of view. I'm really glad so many of you have decided to weigh in, and, regardless of what side you're on, I'd like to hear your opinions.

Speaking of comments, I've unfortunatly had to add word verification to the comments, as I got my first comment spam. I don't think you all really need to be subjected to links for chili dog fetishes or barely legal asian coed college student upskirt XXX nude voyeur S&M links, so I've added that little security feature to keep the comments legit. You all know how it works - you just have to type in that funky looking word before you can post your comment (it appears below the comment box in the window).

Finally, I'll be home March 14-28, so if you're gonna be in the grand ol' Port Jervis area, let me know so we can hang out. I'm also going to see Grease on opening night, so let me know if any of you are down for that, too.

Well that's it for now. Stay well, keep your thoughts coming in, and this is John Beck reminding you to help control the pet population: have your pet spayed or neutered.
