Uhhh.. yeah. Let's get deep into the properties of water. The hydrogen bond (related to the 110-degree angle formed by the H-O-H molecular structure), the fact that it occupies a greater volume as a liquid than as a solid, the fact that its specific heat is so high.. so many interesting attributes that are all essential the existence of life on this planet. Fascinating indeed.

I love physics. It's amazing to me that you can define something with an equation and it work 99% of the time. Like F=ma or E=mc^2. There's all sorts of stuff like. It's just amazing. Einstein, Newton, Planck, Bohr etc... were all geniuses to be sure.

In contemporary America, "and stuff" is universally applicable. I think I heard W. use it in a speech just last week.

On-topic: It took some pretty revolutionary thinking to come up with the thought that mass, length and time are not constant. Light is the only constant.

Off-topic: <sarcasm>We certainly did elect a very dynamic speaker, didn't we</sarcasm>. Now Tony Blair. he's a good speaker.

Ive always enjoyed W.'s speeches......
Always good for a good laugh.
Seriously though his address to the nation after the twin towers incident was quite good. Wonder who wrote it for him....

Talking STOP!!

I'm sorry, I feel really bad about making that crack now. True, even Bush's most avid supporters don't claim that he is a moving public speaker, but dammit, he is our President in a time of war, and if there is going to be disrespect thrown his way, I don't want to be the insitgator. I mock him, true, but I know that he needs our support. It's been said, but America needs to be united right now, even if it means trusting a President that many of us didn't vote for. Okay, I've said my peace.

i hate english and literature!! right now in english we're doing clauses and they dont make any sense!! i hope i dont have to write poems or any crap like that. i dont like history much either. why the crap do i need to know the government of the byzantine empire?? a crappy teacher doesnt help anything either. she is the absolute worst teacher!! my science and math teacher(same guy) is the coolest. he lets us use notes on our science quizzes.

Literature and History were my favorites, maths and physics is easy but nowhere as interesting. Some parts of it were enjoyable, like nuclear physics and optics but stuff like vectors....yawn
