  1. Whoa this seems prett cool acutually. Apple finnnaly has some touch technology competetion! I like how it has 2 cameras and how it can play other song formatts besides MP3's. I might look into buying this when the release date is announced.
  2. Yes I have heard a little bit about it. They have sent me a lot of flyers in the mail. It looks like an good school, I was considering going there as well, however I decided to stay in Michigan (I live there and I wanted the in state tuition fees).It is a cool place in new york, not a huge college but not small either. They have quite a few diffrent majors and schools offered, which is pretty good. They have a nice website, and they have a very interesting history, it is really a very nice college :)It is definitly a place to consider when deciding what college to go to.
  3. I definitly use imagefilez. It is convieneint because it is located on the page, and whenever I need to upload a photo, I can do it quickly without going to other sites. This is also considering that I just need to temporarily have the image, for instance if I am simpily showing someone a photo, posting a picture that I plan on updating, or if I am just posting a picture that will probebly be viewed only within the next few days, I will use imagefilez. If I want to keep the photo for a while or if I plan on posting it for everyone to see over a long period of time, I use Photobucket.
  4. For me, I would choose happiness. The job that does not pay well would be enough to live on, and I would be doing something I love. If I am happy, what do I need money for? I mean even a low paying job could pay for any bills, pay for nessacities, and get a few extra things along the way. If I got a job that I loved, I would take the job I loved versus college any day.
  5. I own a Blue Ford Mustang with a racing stripe and several modifications. If you would like to look at a picture of it, I have one in the "Share a Picture of Your Car" thread. It is very nice looking, with several interior changes which I do not have photographs of, including multiple color leather. It has a V-8 engine.
  6. While the terms today are often used interchangeably, originally a college was a specific school teaching a specific subject, such as Education, Medicine, etc. A University is a school made up of numerous colleges. In general, now a days, the difference is the level of degree that they can award. Colleges typically award Bachelor's degrees and Universities can offer Master's and Doctorate Degrees. The distinction has never been 'enforced' by any organization. College is also used to refer to a specific group within a University.Does this answer your question?
  7. Title and Publication: The Red Badge of Courage was published by D. Appleton and Company in 1895, about thirty years after the Civil War ended.Author: Stephen CraneThis book, set in the south during the US Civil War, is about a young man, Henry Flemming, eager to experence the glory of war. As the first encounter with the enemy approaches, Henry wonders if he will be brave in the face of battle. In fact, he does panic and flee in an early encounter. This experience sets him on a journey of self-discovery, as he struggles with his conscience and re-examines his opinions about war, friendship, courage, and life. This book was very revoulotional for its time (1895), and it will probebly be an American Clasic for a while to come. Has anyone read this book before?
  8. There are a lot of cool google tricks. My favorite is typing in French Military Victories, because it comes up as "Did you mean French Military Defeats?". But there are also a few alternative google sites... check it out.. http://www.i-am-bored.com/2010/04/googles-hidden-easter-eggs.html I like typing in google l33t then pressing "I am feeling lucky". You get the google hackzorz site.
  9. Nessacary Things (For Me):-A Fan-A Mini-Fridge-Ramen Noodles. Lots and lots of Ramen Noodles.-A few pots and pans-A Laptop-A small TV-A Toaster-A blanket-A blender-2 or 3 Lamps-a bag or backpact (I use jansport backpacks)-A radio with nice speakers (I use an iHome)There are other things as well, but I think those are the biggest things I need.
  10. My favorite kind of house pet is the Leopard Gecko. They are common lizards, a lot of people have them. I have 2 little baby leopard geckos, they are very cute. Here is a picture of one of them: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/404.png
  11. Lets see... I like the Crossfire a lot, but I would have o say my all time favorite car is The Lamborghini Gallardo. It is cool looking, sleek, fast, aerodynamical, revoulotionary, and a very personal car with all the customisations you can make.
  12. I like a lot of bands and I like all sorts of diffrent types of music. My favorite bands/aryists would have to be:-The Arctic Monkies-Modest Mouse-Kanye West-Soulja Boy-The White StripesThose are my favorites. I think that The White Stripes is my all time favorite, mostly because I am freinds with Jack White, who started the band.
  13. Wha is your favorite basketball team? I will start the thread off by saying I like the Detroit Pistons a lot, mainly because I am from Detroit and because I have season tickets so I can go to most of their games. They are a amazingly skillful team, with great chemistry between the players. With Chauncey Billups, Rasheed Wallace, and a bunch of other great players,The Pistons has risen to become one of the best teams in the NBA.
  14. My favorite football team is the Indianappolis Colts (NFL). I live in Detroit, but the Detroit Lions have never, ever been a good team, so I guess I have always just been a Colts fan. My second favorite team is the New England Patriots, they are just a good team with great players.
  15. My favorite book of all time would have to be The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane. It is an old book, published in 1895, about the meaning of courage, as it is discovered by Henry Fleming, a recruit in the American Civil War. It is one of the most influential American war stories ever written, even though the author was born after the war and had never seen battle himself. It was an amazing read, I could read it over and over. I read a lot, so I discover a lot of books of all sorts, and yet I have never read a book that topped The Red Badge of Courage. I think anyone would love this book, and you can even read it for free on your computer if you do not want to pay for it be going to: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  16. Sleeping Freshmen Never Lie, by David Lubar, is a story about a freshmen named Scott Hudson. He has one goal for his freshman year: to survive. To cope with the expected (friends dumping him) and unexpected (mom's pregnant!) changes of his first year of high school, Scott keeps a diary in the guise of writing advice to "Smelly," his unborn brother. Full Cast Audio evokes the humorous growing pains of Scott, his friends, and family. Ryan MacConnell does an especially good turn at portraying Scott as a smart, wry young man wondering how to convert these unpopular traits into assets. Light music separates narration from epistolary episodes, and a catchy jazz phrase indicates new chapters. This excellent production will keep all listeners awake, even sleeping freshmen. I would give this book 8/10 stars, it is a great and somewhat quick read for high schoolers and college kids. Here is some book info:Number of Pages: 160 pages Publisher: Dutton Juvenile (July 21, 2005) Language: EnglishDimensions: 8.3 x 5.6 x 0.8 inches Available in: Hardcover, Paperback, Audio CDI would recomend reading this book, it is somewhat short, but funny, with a right on plot that will make anyone keep reading.
  17. I use Bloger as a way to express myself. It is fun top post what is happening in my life, along with photos, plus be able to see what people think about my blog. I use blogger pretty often, maybe once every two days, and I like it a lot. I also use blogspot though, and I think soon I am gonna transfer everything to blogspot.
  18. I have a Blue Ford Mustang GT with a racing stripe, it is a modified car that is pretty cool looking. Check it out! http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/404.png It is pretty cool looking, no?
  19. This has become one of my all time favorite movies. It is great, with a lot of dirty humor. I have seen it 4 times, and the movie did not fail to make me laugh any of those times.
  20. I just got a Nokia E70 a few days ago. I love it. It has a full keyboard, email w/ viewer for attactchments, wireless LAN, 16 million color display, a megapixel camera, a blutooth connection, unlimeted storage (because of swapable 2 GB cards), customizable ringtones, a video recorder, an MP3 Player, a voice recorder, instant messaging, and much more. The website is: http://company.nokia.com/en/about-us The pic is: It has been compared to the iPhone by several people, and in most cases people found it a better phone. Howeever, the marketing team for this project is not exactley great, and hence it is not as well known as it should be. But now you know what it is, and it is pretty cool.
  21. I used to have dandruff as well. I used a dandruff shampoo called head and shoulders, and it seemed to work pretty well. They have 9 diffrent shhampoos for people of all diffrent kinds, so you will be able to find a dandruff shampoo that fits your needs. I would suggest trying it out. However, you should try to figure out what kind of dandruff you have before you try to treat it. There are small flakes, large flakes, and other types of dandruff, and some treatments only work for certain kinds of dandruff.
  22. I don't like Sprint. I had a relitivly short contract with them, and they overcharged me on multiple ocasions, charged me for stupid things, and even charged me for things I DIDN'T do. On top of that, from what I have seen, their customer service is terible, especially the phone reps. So I switched to Virgin Mobile, and I find them t have a lot better service with no stupid charges.
  23. Personally I like HP/COMPAQ computers, the screwed up computer is probebly because of how either you or customer service packaged it to send it. It is more than likely not the fault of the people repairing your computer.
