Just curious, what kind of music does everyone listen to? My favorite bands are NOFX, Unwritten Law, and Offspring.
At least we still have one arrow looper.RIP ShockWave (sitting there waiting for me to take it)

What ever happened to the Indians? I remember a few years ago they used to be contenders to the world series and they always seem to make the playoffs. Now the last couple og years they have been below .500. Is it injuries or dis they lose alot of star players?

They cut salarie (no idea how to spell that word) and went for all young players that are supposed to blossoming right around now, but its not working out the way they planned it

Alright lets talk movies.I just got back from the theatres and just witnessed one of the best movies I have seen in a long time......Freddy vs. Jason!To those of you who like Freddy movies or Jason movies or both this one really takes the cake. Its one of the best Jason movies I have seen (Ive seen them all) and one of the best Freddy movies I have seen (Ive seen them all too). It's great.Don't buy what the critics are telling you, they are always wrong. The acting could be better im sure, but the movie turns out great and the ending is just awesome.Spend the money, see the movie! I got my $9 worth!

in my opinion, those are the worst movies on the planet. They are completly predictable and the stories leave nothing to the imagination. I just have to laugh when I watch those because they are so bad.

The story in Jason vs. Freddy is actually really complex. It probably has the best story out of any of the movies.

I dont know if this is true but I heard that they find out that Camp Crystal Lake is right by 13th street. It sure did take them along time to figure that out.

haha, I thought about graduating early like Thompson, but I'd rather stay the whole year and enjoy it. It's not like I'll be taking any difficult classes (Outside of AP english), so I might as enjoy myself before I get stuck working hard in college. I'm going to be taking the moraine valley route, and then after that, who knows....What school are you at if you don't mind me asking? Is it Simmons? God, I hate that School... With all it's stupid murals, and second floor... I got stuck going to good ol' McGugan. Biggest waste of my time. ever.
