Yeah she won. Last night Blake had about a 100 vote lead and she ended up winning by like 300 votes. Last round she was down by 200 votes and ended up coming back within the last hour to win by 3 votes. Needless to say we’re all a bit disappointed, but thanks to everyone that voted!

I am the exact opposite of you HatedJealousy. I have been living in the same house for 12-13 years, and I barely know anyone in our neighborhood. I know the names of 2-3 people in the whole neighborhood, how said is that. We are moving to a brand new subdivision in February, so maybe I will actually get to know some of my new neighbors, who knows.
By the way HatedJealousy, where in Texas do you live? I am in Cedar Park, right outside Austin.

That fits my dad. He doesn’t care where a parking spot is in relation to the store, he just cares that he gets his car in the shade. I hope I’m not like that once I get my license.

I don’t think robaston was “placing any bias” on anyone. (S)he merely asked if anyone here was a Christian. Robaston didn’t say, “I don’t want to talk to you if you’re not a Christian.” But then again, I’ve been gone from here so long that I really don’t have any say.
PolarBearNPR wrote:drain, Ender’s Game is perfect for a 15-year-old sophomore. It’s about a kid, gaming, (but there’s more to it, of course) and is just the right “level” for your average 10th grader. My family read it last summer and all of us enjoyed it thoroughly. I suggest it to every young man I meet who asks my opinion on a book to read.The Alchemist is great for all ages . . . meaning and purpose of life stuff not-so-hidden in a good story. My oldest (15) is reading it and my dad (72) is next in line. Now, as you start to make decisions and wonder where it’s all leading is a great time to read something like this. And did I mention it’s relatively short?
Ender’s Game is a GREAT book, I second her recommendation. However I have never been able to fully understand the Warsaw Pact and all the other more politcal parts of the book.
Sorry for getting even more off-topic Graham, but I just got back from Las Vegas with my church choir. We threw festivals for kids where we had all kinds of games, food, sports, etc. Then we would get to do a concert for them, and at the end a pastor of one of the Las Vegas churches came up and spoke for about 5 minutes. It was so much fun, we got to talk to and play games with kids all day, and its always fun getting to hang out with all of your church friends for eight days.
By the way, we go on a trip like this every summer. Last year it was the Bahamas, this year Vegas. I just hope it is somewhere cool next year!
Oats, it is my displeasure to inform you that I’m not running Cross Country this year. Part of the reason is because my coach is a Nazi whore, and the other is because we train every single day during summer, and I have been very busy and wouldn’t have been able to go to the practices. This year will be the first year ever to NOT play a sport.
