Well that is sweet, You get to come to the best of the fifty states. We are having great weather, mid-eighties, and if you come up to Flint-town you can hang with the Martians.

Srry, but we are going to hang out on Lake Erie. Put-in Bay. If I were closer, I would be able to hop on a bike and ride down, if I don't get caught in traffic.:rolleyes: Thx for the offer though!

Hmmm, isn't Put-in-Bay in Ohio? :confused: At least when I lived in Sandusky, Ohio (The Roller Coaster Capital of the World!) we thought it was right next door - and still in Ohio!

I just finished up my first week of working 12.5hr days... Started an engineering internship on Monday, very interesting. And I'm still working "full-time" at K & K Hardware.

My first job as an "engineer"? Reverse engineer a couple for hoses on maneur spreaders... nice introduction, right? LOL, but it's pretty fun. At least it doesn't smell like poop.

I am very impressed with all of you! You must all be as busy as Jeremiah, because there has been no activity in The Nothing Thread for almost a week now! :] And as they always say... a busy CD'er has no time for boredom! And no time for boredom means no time for inane posts on CD! :p

Darn! You found out! Really, I am on CD almost every day, but I'm usually also working on other stuff, like watching my brother and 4-H projects.

So my summer is already turning out pretty good.

In the past week I've watched four movies (History of the World: Part 1, Zoolander, Cars, and Little Miss Sunshine), made one movie (using two X-Boxes, two copies of Halo 2, a capture card, and four determined people).

Having a license and a car is very nice, indeed.
I can't believe I procrastinated and waited to get my license until summer was over last year. Gah. Silly me.

Srry, it was a very long weekend. Just as this one.

I'm bored right now, so I'm just going to explain my weekend. On Friday, I had some friends come over. We went swimming, played with airsoft guns, and played the Wii until 3 in the morning. Then my friends put in Scooby Doo 2 (funny, but gets old after you have seen it a dozen times) so I fell asleep. The next morning, we went to walk in the parade. Got there at 9 and didn't even start walking until 11. Long parade. Good news, we got to watch part of it while waiting to start our walk and got free ice cream. Later, we went to work on and Eagle Scout project, and then went to my friends house to see their goats and sheep.

Today, I went to church, did computer tech. Found out we got a new computer in one of the back rooms, and sang the hallelujah course(finally got rid of the 98). Then went to Fort Wayne, did a few geocaches, went to a chinese buffet, then came home to have brownies and ice cream with family and open b-day cards (today was my b-day). I did a little bit of designing on our segway, and now I'm talking on CD. It was a good weekend:D

Wow-I haven't been on for over a week

And now...STORY TIME

I had a scout campout last Thursday-Saturday. The entire trip was all about survival (luckily no one died). There was me, nine other boys, and four leaders. Most of the time we were around the Maryland-West Virginia border.

Day One
WARNING: Day one is not to be read by the squemish or most girls (not to be sexist, but most the girls I've told about it wish I hadn't). If youy want to know why, read on, but don't say I didn't warn you.
Spoiler for Day One:
Day one was survival day, meaning we had to catch our own food. We woke up early in the morning and set off through West Virginia to Maryland. On the way we stopped for about an hour at a chicken farm to pick up some chickens for dinner (these are live chickens by the way). We got four chickens and put them in a dog cage one of the leaders had brought. Later we arrived at our campsite and set up camp. To get some food for dinner, we went fishing at a lake, and later a river. This was mostly uneffective and out of the ten of us, we caught about five small fish, and most of us were sleeping most of the time. When we got back to the campsite it was starting to rain so we had to hang some tarps from trees over our fire pit and cooking station. We had a couple people gutting the fish while the rest of us prepared the chicken (and somewhere there are pictures of this). We had to kill the chickens by having one person hold the chicken's body while the other would grab the head, pull it, and then chop it off. We then hung the body by the legs until all the blood came out. We chopped off the legs and put the chicken in some boiling water so the feathers would come off easier. We plucked out all the feathers, gutted them, and stuck them on a pole to make some delicious rotisary chicken.


Day Two
We went white water rafting on some rappids. I can't remember the name, but they were in Ohiopyle, Pennsylvania. There is a sign that says 19 people have died on the rapids, which is of course not very comforting. We all made it through safely and had a coulple hours of fun. Later that night we went to Subway for dinner and went to see Evan Almighty (which was not all that great). When we got back to camp we found a big field and set up a telescope. We saw some cool stuff, Jupiter and some of it's moons.

Day Three
We drove back down to Northern Virginia where some of us did some rock climbing and repeling for a coulple of hours. When I finally got home it felt so good to finally be able to take a shower. And then I went straight to our team party (wouldn't want to miss that :D ) (and I was only a little late, but it was worth it).

Now that is the funniest wilderness experience I have ever heard! And I'm one of those non-squeamish girls because I grew up on one of those places where you went to get the items described in your hidden tale. You should hear my mom tell the story about taking an entire trunkful to an old fashioned processing location...

And then the next day you went to Subway and a Movie Theater. Where on earth did you find them in the middle of the wilderness!?! :ahh: And then the giant telescope - yeah we all carry those in our survival backpacks. The contrast between Day 1 and Day 2 was so spectacularly understated! :cool: It sounds like it was a truly great weekend!

Sounds like it was a blast. Those chickens must have been good, being fresh and all. To bad for the fish. If you would have caught more, it would have made a nice meal.
Tell me this, for fires, did you use matches, flint and steel, or magnesium to start them?

You can find movie theaters everywhere. Even in the middle of nowhere (except for ghost towns).:rolleyes:

Fireworks in out town tonight! :D I'm excited because they are usually wonderful! And it is a beautiful night to be in a park with 10000 other people! :yikes: And because by computer is broken and all I can do is go on the internet, and frankly that is a little boring right now, because I don't have flash or anything to do anything on the cool internet pages. :(

So it you are a computer geek - go read about my problem on my computer and help me fix it!!! :o

ok, so the challenge that I have accepted today is to make 7 batches of brownies. It is not my challenge, it is one I have taken up to help a weaker soul. The decision regarding this challenge that is not my challenge that I have taken up, is that I'm going to eat all the ugly brownies that come out all gooey and broken. That's all I have to say about it.

If I were the one making them, I would end up eating all of them.
