Send a message via AIM to BandChick
i love the idle messages most of all...
the kind like "Someone remind me to put up an away message when I leave, so you are not forced to sit and read this one. . ."

but on away messages, i, being a swimmer and a really big band geek (and apparently now a big robotics geek ), am a fan of the themed messages that no one understands.
for example:

"yay! free food! yay! cute guys!
pasta parties=one of the great things about swimming...hehe"


or

"DO IT UP, HIGHTSTOWN! yeah, again, im at a band function.

Are you ready to get down?
Yes we are.
I said, are you ready to get down?
yes we are!
I said, tilt me, tilt me, tilt me
Hightstown! Hightstown! Hightstown!"


or

"can of air....$6
2 sets of labels....$15
McDonald's for all....$28
spending countless hours in front of a working robot....priceless"


then there's the away messages that only apply to some of your friends. like this one:

"i'm at USY, yes Rachel, USY that fun place where we eat kosher chinese food and such...be back around 8:30 ish"

okay, i'm done before you get all 50 away messages that i have on my computer
