Yeah. It sucked. I was having a good break too.

Oh well I only have 4 months of high school left...

Half-Life 2 is a hell of a lot of fun. I don't know where I was, because my brother F'd the computer in the A while I was at uni (I played it over the summer) and my dad had to re-format the computer :upset:

I was at the part immediately after you play with the dog thing in the cavern with the gravity gun, and then have to drive in the dune buggy.*

Nice...I have something like 6 weeks till I go home again for a week+, then like 2 months till summer...which will be glorious.

Ah, cool cool. How nice is it? My parents let me use the car last night even though I have no insurance...and that was nice...because having your parents drive you on dates when you're 20 is :-\

It's pretty cool, drives nice and smooth, all it needs is new paint, it looks very dry.

Ah well...as long as it's reliable, who cares how it looks?

But the all important question is, of course, how is the gas mileage?

Well, the total mileage on the car is about 147,207 I believe, I've driven 200 miles on the car if I do the math correctly. And I've had the same gas in my car that I pumped 3 weeks ago and it's not even halfway gone yet. Considering I drive everyday, this is one of the highlights.

I also plan to get it repainted, I've just been freshening it up before I send it down there and they start doing other things to it that I'd have to pay extra for, this has happened a lot to my family.

So someone I kind of knew died today in a car crash. Rumor is either
A. He was racing or
B. He was driving with someone that was drunk

Not good, not good at all :-/

Wow, that sounds really good...and being as that's the most expensive part of driving nowadays...good deal indeed.

Well, you have to sign them permission to do that...just don't.

I don't play Half Life, but I've heard that it's a dissapointment, though I never got details on why people dislike it.[/QUOTE]

Are you kidding? Go look in the media section of the Pit, its pretty much unanimous that its the best game ever made. HL2 is so good.

Quick question: In your place, how long does it take to have your license since you first begin your car driving lessons?

In Colorado you can get your permit at 15 if you do drivers ed, otherwise 15 1/2. License at 16 if you meet all other conditions.

You can go take the test when you turn 15, Drivers Ed or not. Taking Drivers Ed where I live lowers how much money you have to pay to your car insurance, usually cuts of about 180. I also think that if you drive really good in drivers ed, the teacher gives you something called a gold card, and you can use that so you only have to take the written part of the drivers test, making it 75% easier to get your lisence when you turn 16. I never got the gold card.

Lies. Well, some people say it's too easy, but that's ok as the game has endless replay value (for me anyway). It also remains the best game I've ever played.

No, I just made it up. Sounded cool.

I was just saying (very awkwardly) that you can't listen to that EP "too much" because you can't over-indulge in it.
