So after my first week of class, I’m enjoying things here. I’ve got a three day week, with four classes on Tuesday and Thursday, and only one on Wednesday. That leaves me with a four day weekend again this semester, so I’ve got to remember to do something with it this time around.
I honestly don’t remember what I used my long weekends for last semester, but that probably just means I was hanging out, listening to music or playing games. Not gonna do that again (listen to this ambitious talk). I’m going to use my weekends for productive things.
I’m really really enjoying the recent feud between Anonymous and Scientology. I’ve never really liked either of these groups, and seeing them trying to destroy each other is far more fun than anything playing on TV this year.
In case you haven’t been paying attention, anon has been bugging Scientology for a while now, but this recent spit is about Scientology trying to remove a video of Tom Cruise from the internet. Anon responded to this with DDoS attacks, and that video in the above wired article. What prompted me to make this post is the image that’s shown up recently (today?).
Now that’s just plain fun. I really can’t wait to see what happens. more press
(07:47:32 PM) John: I just realized that I don’t get to chat with the rest of your family by proxy anymore
(07:48:37 PM) Joe: sometimes i relay quotes from our IMs to other people, on IM or in conversation later
(07:48:53 PM) John: but I want instant gratification!
(07:48:59 PM) Joe: maybe later
Its understandable that sellers think highly of their buses, because of the original price they likely paid for them. But as soon as these buses get on in years, they lose value considerably. The average prices on these things is around $2000. Lately, the average reserve is higher.
I’ve seen dozens of buses on eBay end without sale. So many, any of which I would have gladly bought. Sellers are setting reserve prices higher than they will ever get. This is the main problem I’ve had buying buses so far. 7 auctions have ended in which I was the high bidder, but the reserve price wasn’t met. Its starting to bug me. I just wish sellers could start setting realistic reserve prices so auctions would end with a winner.
