Ahhh it's that time of year now where we play the "let's see how long we can stand the chill until we decide to turn the heat on" game.

*grabs a blanket*

**JBond** · 11-07-2009, 06:50 PM

That sounds like a game that everyone loses.

Knerys · 11-07-2009, 06:55 PM

When you have to pay for your own gas heat? Yeah. Pretty much.

Ramplate · 11-07-2009, 07:38 PM

Oooo been there.

Pipes froze

yuk!

docstop · 11-07-2009, 09:54 PM

Here in central Ontarion the weather was just about perfect... between the hours of 3 and 5 pm.

It was ****ing 80 degrees in OK today. What the hell?

southern · 11-07-2009, 10:25 PM

It was in the 70's today. Absolutely perfect weather

Tolkien · 11-08-2009, 01:54 AM

Closing in on 9pm. and it's only just dropping to the mid 70s. Ugh.

Ramplate · 11-08-2009, 07:33 AM

38 degrees right now at 7:30am and only supposed to get up to 60

southern · 11-08-2009, 10:08 AM

I have a 500 word essay due by midnight tonight. I've done the interview; I just don't know where to start to turn it into a 500 word essay. A writer I am not.

Ramplate · 11-08-2009, 11:13 AM

put in a lot of "Um's, Ah's, and Ok's"

southern · 11-08-2009, 01:03 PM

It's worth 20% of my grade

I very much dislike Office 2007. Too hard to navigate.

PsYkOoOoO · 11-08-2009, 02:26 PM

What is the topic?

southern · 11-08-2009, 02:59 PM

I had to interview someone in the media business. I interviewed a friend of my cousin who is a reporter for a really small newspaper in Illinios. I can write the essay on what we talked about but it's not going to be 500 words.

Tolkien · 11-08-2009, 03:12 PM

I fell alseep in church this morning... snoring and everything.

I hadn't been that embarrassed in a very, very long time.

Ramplate · 11-08-2009, 03:19 PM

I dropped a guitar in chuch once.

"Let us pray..." *BLAM PLANG!*

At least you were there. I haven't been in a few years

southern · 11-08-2009, 03:37 PM

I keep doing things with this new program and I'm not sure how I'm doing it or how to stop doing and get things bback to the way they were.

Ramplate · 11-08-2009, 03:42 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot. You have a new computer, new programs, and a paper due.

That sucks. Good luck with it.

southern · 11-08-2009, 04:13 PM

Well the good news is that I'm almost to 300 words and that's with me just writing a few paragraphs without putting it into a coherent paper.

PsYkOoOoO · 11-08-2009, 05:16 PM

A few tricks:

1) Changing the font of your essay may significantly lengthen your paper if you haven't got enough words.

2) Changing the size of the fullstops could also significantly lengthen your paper. Do not underestimate the fullstops and other punctuations.

3) Increase your spacing ever so slightly.

Good luck!

southern · 11-08-2009, 05:31 PM

It's a word document that has a word count feature.

**JBond** · 11-08-2009, 05:46 PM

Teachers aren't stupid, don't worry about margins.

southern · 11-08-2009, 05:53 PM

I'm worried about wether it will make sense

In other news, Allen Iverson is a chode.
