I haven't been on the internet before noon in forever (read: four months). This is CRAAAAAZY.
Going to get a hair cut before the interview, and the barber is on campus, so I'm killing time here.

You're practically the only one in my buddies list who still updates, but three huge entries and one small one in a day? How'm I supposed to keep up with that? Anyhow, I figured I should point you toward this:

It works basically the same way as any phone, landline or cell, so you can call anyone. I know you've already got a cell and don't ever really need to use it, but at least you can use your headset for this. Downside is that you can't leave your computer, but is that really a downside? It's also free for a year, with no binding contracts or anything. Pretty nifty, if you ever use the phone. Even if it's just to call India.
Also, I'm at the "I'm so bored I could talk about nothing for hours" stage pretty much every night from 9 pm to 1 pm at least.
And in personal news, I've got an interview tomorrow. Wish me luck, everyone. Maybe I'll be able to have my own computer and pick up Tsukihime so I can try editing my next AMV... if I get the job.

@ Ari cont.
Yeah, severed-arm-guy with the cigar was Samuel L. Jackson, and the Sandra Bullock movie you're thinking of is probably The Net. They made a pretty bad sequel to that movie, but it wasn't any worse than the Speed sequel.
Man, I've seen a lot of movies, and most of these memories are somewhat nostalgic.

Are you thinking Deep Blue Sea? Yeah, I could never bring myself to watch that movie, it just looked too ridiculous. Samuel L. Jackson was also in Jurassic Park, Pulp Fiction, and A Time to Kill, all of which were great movies. You had to have seen Jurassic Park, right? But his role was small in that. I definitely recommend the other two if you haven't seen them. I'm sure you've heard about Pulp Fiction, but A Time to Kill is based of the Grisham novel about a lawyer who defends Samuel L. Jackson after he's accused of killing two men. Great movie, great cast: Matthew McConaughey, Sandra Bullock, Oliver Platt, Kevin Spacey, Ashley Judd, and some other people. But it's definitely a drama.

"I liked his Unbreakable, too, though I could have done without the whole "comic strip" thing. I just wanted the unexplained 'super power' popping up out of nowhere. The token black guy with the unhealthy obsession just annoyed me. Which is sad since I really liked him in Shawshank Redemption and Robin Hood."
Well, then you should be relieved to hear that it's Morgan Freeman that you liked and not Samuel L. Jackson who was the token black guy in Unbreakable. =p Morgan Freeman is undoubtedly one of my favorite actors, but he seems to always play a character who knows everything, or close enough. It just gets old.
