Paper Work - Phase 1 Complete
Today marks the day that my entire Application to Candidacy paperwork is complete. This doesn't mean that it will be accepted, although I believe it will be, but it means that one of the most laborious, time sucking processes of my entire life is over. Looking back on it, it was horrible. If I had any more time to donate I would have offered to make a completely digital, online form site for it. Maybe I still will in the summer, if my written thesis is completed early but for now I am just glad that this phase is over.

Kenmore and Screen Shots
Category: kenmore
[inlink]uncutsaniflush,19[/inlink] (e:uncutsaniflush) . I hope you really don't think that people are thinking you aren't cool enough or not young enough!! The average age on the site is over 30. I sent you a couple messages about the screen shot asking you if you had a picture of the entire console, like the other ones. In the message I said, if not I would just include the screenshot. It is my fault for saying screen shot in the email. I got a couple others, like (e:shawnr) and asked him the same thing.

[size=m]The important part[/size]
Anyways, onto Kenmore. I lived there from age 1 to age 18 and I have to say it seems sort of like living in some sort of twillight zone episode police state. Not to mention how incredibly cancerous it is [inlink]paul,395[/inlink]. Check out the stats on the epa site or just search it out here.

If you are to leave Linheaven, I would suggest North Buffalo over Kenmore anyday. The hertel area is pretty nice.

My Thesis Advisor
He is the coolest guy, I wish I got to work with him earlier. Here is a picture of his office door. It has a giant ascii looking picture of him on it. I wonder where he got it.

Sunny but cold
Yesterday, I was sunny but we still have a ton of snow on the ground. At one point the sun was reflecting off the snow and it actually felt hot. It kind of reminded me of my days in flagstaff, AZ where sometime there would be a foot of snow but you could wear a heavy teeshirt. Okay, it was not nearly that warm in Buffalo.
