Mandatory community service is a violation of civil liberties! Call the press to this injustice!

Doing summer HW. Darn AP classes. I can relate to that. I took 4 AP's my senior year, and 10 creds of math from a local college, I was busy, to say the least... -Beat 1943 for the NES (It almost killed me) -Almost broke my NES (Game Genie is EVIL ) -Doing community service (If you live in Ontario you have to do 40 hours to graduate from high school ) 1943=ROCKS, tough but fun GAME GENIE=silly you, PUT IT IN THE OTHER WAY! Community Service=at least you're allowed to do it over the summer, some schools require you ACTUALLY do the 40 during the school year, itself... Otherwise, I flew across country a month ago to Yellowstone, twas gorgeous, but too rural for my tastes (I LIKE THE CITY MAN!), and I just got back from a week in FL yesterday too. Ahh, paradise truly does exist...

I, too, am taking 4 APs.
Does ST have a super-smart following?

StarTropics, yeah I'd say so since it requires some massive intellect just to get through the puzzles.

ROFL It has always been my thought though that "youngins" *such as my former self* who played more mind engaging VG's like ST, LOZ, and some RPG's *as opposed to all Street Fighter, Madden, and MK* better develop a part of their brain that functions more in solving problems, thus giving them an edge in some school subjects, such as Newtonian Rocket Physics... ;D ;D ;D

lol I wouldn't say I have an edge in Rocket Physics, but I've definately noticed I have a better vocabulary than most in my class (although it only consists of 30-40 people), particularly in medieval armor and weaponry, I guess I played alot of rpgs too . I haven't been doin too much this summer, just workin alot and just recently the school golf season started so between the two I'm keeping busy

lol not bad, Im getting better, and I found out today that I made the varsity team. To give you and idea of my scores, I shot a 51 on the front nine and 45 on the back, but It was a pretty good day for me. Actually I'm improving quite a bit. I even won a pepsi today in a bet on a par 3 ;D

Rofl, have Pepsi sponsor you when you start winning big. Loyalty is hard to come by these days... It's been so long since I last played, I don't remember how I fared, but it was somewhere around the 100 range (I don't play regularly though, so I guess if I practiced it a bit, it'd drop a bit). For some reason though, my golf balls have a natural attraction to water hazards, which isn't good...

I used to do mini-golfing when I was a child. I remember I got a hole-in-one on the hardest course...Complete luck... Won me a snow cone (the park gives free snow cones to those who get holes-in-ones on the hard courses)
