    Oh, yeah, and we used to have a Burger King.

    Then the health board shut it down because of rats.

    Nobody in town gives a damn about the rats; me included. We all just want the Burger King back, rats and all. Just for variety in food.

    Jehova's Witness does in fact incorporate Jesus. Actually considered a heretical cult by many Christian denominations.

    Fuck, I get the feeling my parents will help me buy a new computer if I can find some really good Black Friday deals on components.

    The problem is that I know next to nothing about components, so I can't deviate much from the parts listed in the Computer Build thread in the Technology Tavern. If those parts aren't on sale, I don't know how to find equivalent parts (or slightly less good parts) that are on sale.

    They are also pretty good about letting their kids stay horribly sick rather than take them to the doctor, but will happily go to the doctor themselves when THEIR lives are threatened.

    A guy I knew in High School supposedly answered the door to some Jehovah's Witnesses shirtless, with a big, red pentagram on his chest. Or it was an inverted 5-point star.

    Yeah. I'm starting to seriously consider going back to school for a Poli Sci degree, preferably one in an ACTUAL city that still has some hope to it. (Then I use that as a launching pad to get out of town on a permanent basis.)

    I have marketing credits I can transfer (though probably just in-state), might have a grant from my dad's Vietnam hearing loss (40% disability) valid yet, have the one tech-school diploma to work off of, though now I'd be looking for something a little higher-quality than Madison Area Technical College.
