This morning was a bit better. I decided not to let a burnt tongue get in the way of the love affair that coffee and I share! So I went and ordered another coffee this morning, and I managed not to burn myself. I also managed not to spill any on me either! :smile:

I was at school this morning, waiting around the Student Health Services office, when something caught my eye. It was a pamphlet about cell phones, and since I own one and know many people that own one as well, I figured I might as well read it while I waited for the office to open. There was nothing in it that I didn’t already know, but I couldn’t stop laughing when I read this part:

“Large amounts of radio frequency energy can heat body tissue. The heated tissue can overheat other parts of the body. The eyes and the testes are most likely to overheat from the radio frequency energy.”

I almost spit out my coffee when I read that. I mean, come on! Who’s going to put a cell phone on their gooseberries*? Except maybe Tag in that one episode. :sarcastic: Boys, don’t let your gooseberries make any phone calls lest you suffer from overheated tissue!

*The term I like to use for testes. You may also use ding-dongs, gonads, love-nuts, nuggets, royal jewels, tallywags, or wank-tanks. :smile:



Well, I passed my benchmark. I won’t say I passed it with flying colors, because I barely passed it by the skin of my teeth. But that’s actually to be expected. Not many people will pass the benchmark, and even fewer people will pass the actual state exam. The questions I missed most were on bilingual education and language arts. That’s where I’ll be focusing my time during the study sessions, and hopefully I’ll be able to pass the real state exam in December. :smile:

The concert was awesome. Down here where I live, I can’t say there are many chances to see a band like Korn perform live. I’ve been a Korn fan since my middle school days, although I’m a bigger fan of their old stuff rather than the stuff they’ve been putting out now. My fiance’s little sister managed to get backstage passes to meet Korn before the show (lucky!), and so she and Rob missed the first band that came out. They didn’t miss much though. The band’s name was called Droid, and I didn’t understand a single word they said. All I heard was screaming, and it was not a pretty sight. I was relieved when they finished their set. :???:

The next two bands that played were pretty cool. One of the band’s name was 5 Finger Death Punch, which I thought was…rather unique. Rob said it sounded like it should be a wrestling move, and I would have to agree. Their songs were alright, at least I could understand them this time. The last band to play before Korn came out was Hell Yeah. What was cool about them was the crew, who were dressed as skeletons. One of the crew members was fat, and he looked so funny! :lol: I had never seen a fat skeleton before, I guess that’s why I found it amusing. Poor guy ripped his skeleton pants before he night was over though!

There was a weird guy at the concert wearing a kilt, and he deemed it necessary to inform everyone in the vicinity that he was not wearing any underwear as he tried to get to his seat. He ended up sitting right behind me and I tried my very best not to turn around, but damn him for tapping me on the shoulder and asking me for a lighter! :sweatdrop: I kept praying that he wouldn’t fart or something. I wouldn’t hear it until I got punched by it! :yuck:

Anyway, Korn finally came out and they put on a wicked show. I don’t think I’ve ever been to a concert with a laser show, so that was pretty neat. We got actual seats this time, because Rob didn’t think his little sister would make it on the floor. I’m really glad we didn’t get floor seats because I don’t think I would have made it, either! The mosh pits were absolutely crazy, and it looked like three little hurricanes were going on from where we were sitting. People shoving, kicking, and pushing each other. I know for sure I wouldn’t have survived! Korn put on an amazing show, though. It was awesome. :thumbsup:
