New Idea for Chiefdelphi...

[Billfred]

Let's see, since I sped out of the Irmo High School parking lot for the last time...

1) Attended no fewer than two graduations (one mine, one my friend's from leadership school).
2) Have been on two college campuses (USC and The Citadel)
3) Registered for classes
4) Flown to the complete other side of the country
5) Appeared on national TV three times (The Price Is Right x2, Jimmy Kimmel Live x1)
6) Been one of those people who deliberately calls out the wrong price on The Price Is Right (yeah, it's not really GP, but when your mother is in contestants' row, whose side are you gonna take?)
7) Been through two annoying/painful/disgusting medical tests (read my blog if you want all the gory details)
8) Cleaned my bedroom (which is a true feat--wish I had a before picture)
9) Worked all these hours at Piggly Wiggly, plus a few others didn't want
10) Fought tooth and nail to corner the Neopets market for omelettes.

HA!

I spend an awful lot of time on here working on assorted projects, researching, and other useful activities.

I also appreciate the fact that apparently, this leads to the assumption that I have no life and have spent all my time on here without ever seeing the sun. When a logical argument for taking down CD comes forth, someone please notify me. Otherwise, I think we're all wasting time.

Need a break? Leave.

/edit: and in response to 'Who had the best summer by the most activities they did' - This is ridiculous. I understand that time is what you make of it. But your life is influenced on how many lives you've changed and what impact you've made in your short time here. I fail to see how regular summer activities achieve those... This isn't a competition to see who spent their time most wisely. The only competition we have here, folks, is the one that's in March and April.

You had a great summer? I'm very proud. Mine was good too.

3) Seg-Boston Glide

The Challenge? Hehe... try to outdo me

3)Went to graduation.
4)Went to grandma's funeral.
5)Went to register for college courses.
6)Traveled around with grandpa while he visited doctor.
7)Ju-Jitsu
8)Went to a hospitol a two times.
9)Realized I didn't have to go the second time.
10)Worked.
11)By the end of September Im playing to go see a bunch of Nobel Laurettes(spelling?).

On some level, it seems as if I've done a lot this summer, but I know that I've spent summers past doing far more.

• Spent time with friends at the Northwest Folk Life Festival (as it was there.)
• Visited the Golds, Jim and Bill, in San Jose, CA
• Watched The Shins perform in concert at The Warfield in San Francisco
• Drove across California and visited Six Flags Magic Mountain
• Visited the Disneyland Resort
• Taught robotics summer camp
• Worked my regular job a lot
• Ate an egg for the first time in two years
• Lost my voice singing "Joy to the World" in karaoke
• Saw a July 4th fireworks display on Lake Union
• Said goodbye to the third friend I've met to leave Seattle since my arrival
• Visited Bite of Seattle
• Attended Festival of the Fountains, a formal fundraiser for my job
• Began brainstorming an idea to bring FIRST robots to science museums all over the country

Okay. Maybe I'm just being picky, but a seed spitting contest was not the point of this thread. Not to say it's not important what everyone is doing, but I respected all of you without you having to list it out for me. Truth is, I'm skipping over the list, as well as whatever point you were making in the post that might have been related to the thread.

The point of this thead was to discuss the idea of closing down CD for a period of time, to which Brandon has already made his decision. I call to close both "closing CD" threads.

I second that. Both of these threads have outlived their usefulness, and are on the verge of becoming a bragging contest.
