But if he ends up selling Chemda's parents' furniture, then there might be some good material that comes from that. We can only hope.

Once they see Spooky they will know he is not a jew, but more of a nazi. No way in hell (i know the jews dont belive in one) will they let him in.

When you first fire up itunes 7, it'll want to calculate settings for gapless playback.

if you have a lot of songs, it's going to slow your shit down and take a while. it'll also make anything using quicktime laggy too until it finishes.

I'd like to defend the money-making potential of anorexia and its generally fatter, uglier sibling, bulimia. The misery of others can benefit so many people in so many ways. Therapists/shrinks, doctors, grocery stores, drug stores, pharmaceutical corporations, hospitals, clothing stores, dentists, gyms, diet pill manufacturers, even daytime talk shows.. Plus, eating disorders have the highest fatality rates of any psychological disorder, so they're good business for undertakers and funeral homes. All in all, I think the profit margin is pretty decent. I'd estimate that my 6 years of anorexia and bulimia cost me and my family over $150,000, easy.

There are MEEELIONNNS of people with eating disorders. Now, if you could just corner 1/2 of 1% of that market...

They do have high fatality rates, but not as bad as they once were. These days it's still a huge issue, but not as it once was. The statistics that refer to 10% is from about a decade ago, and from memory, it is around the 3-4% now.

The weird thing about bulimics is that they generally are about average weight, or slightly overweight. Though then it depends really on what kind of bulimic it is, as the binge-purge ones can especially put on the weight. When they go into a binge cycle, they will become manic, and start eating vast amounts of food, a lot more than what a normal human would usually eat. Over time as the purging becomes more frequent, individuals will be able to do so automatically. If it's the thin ones you want, anorexia nervosa sufferers is what you should be choosing.

Amenorrhea is the condition where the menstrual system of the female shuts down. Basically, the body will see that there are not enough nutrients available to the body, and it knows the body can't sustain a child, it becomes more efficient in its use, with the reproductive systems being one of the big ones. Prolonged amenorrhea can lead to premature menopause, or similar.

[NoirTech]

They see me mowin'... my front lawn
I know they're all thinkin' I'm so white & nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
Can't ya see I'm white & nerdy?
Look at me, I'm white & nerdy
I wanna roll with... the gangstas
But so far they all think I'm too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
I'm just too white & nerdy
Really, really white & nerdy

First in my class there at MIT
Got skills, I'm a champion at D&D
MC Escher, that's my favorite MC
Keep your 40, I'll just have an Earl Grey tea
My rims never spin - to the contrary
You'll find that they're quite stationary
All of my action figures are cherry
Stephen Hawking's in my library
My MySpace page is all totally pimped out
Got people beggin' for my Top 8 spaces
Yo, I know pi to a thousand places
Ain't got no grills, but I still wear braces
I order all of my sandwiches with mayonnaise
I'm a whiz at Minesweeper, I could play for days
Once you see my sweet moves, you're gonna stay amazed
My fingers movin' so fast, I'll set the place ablaze
There's no killer app I haven't run
At Pascal, well, I'm number one
Do vector calculus just for fun
I ain't got a gat but I got a soldering gun
"Happy Days" is my favorite theme song
I could sure kick your butt in a game of ping pong
I'll ace any trivia quiz you bring on
I'm fluent in JavaScript as well as Klingon
Here's the part I sing on...

They see me roll on... my Segway
I know in my heart they think I'm white & nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
Can't ya see I'm white & nerdy?
Look at me, I'm white & nerdy
I'd like to roll with... the gangstas
Although it's apparent I'm too white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
I'm just too white & nerdy
How'd I get so white & nerdy?

I've been browsin', inspectin'
X-Men comics, you know I collect 'em
The pens in my pocket, I must protect 'em
My ergonomic keyboard never leaves me bored
Shoppin' online for deals on some writable media
I edit Wikipedia
I memorized "Holy Grail" really well
I can recite it right now and have you ROTFLOL
I got a business doin' web sites
When my friends need some code, who do they call?
I do HTML for 'em all
Even made a home page for my dog
Yo, I got myself a fanny pack
They were havin' a sale down at The Gap
Spend my nights with a roll of bubble wrap
Pop pop, hope no one sees me... gettin' freaky
I'm nerdy in the extreme and whiter than sour cream
I was in A/V Club and Glee Club and even the chess team
Only question I ever thought was hard
Was, do I like Kirk or do I like Picard?
Spend every weekend at the Renaissance Faire
Got my name on my underwear

They see me strollin'... they laughin'
And rollin' their eyes 'cause I'm so white & nerdy
Just because I'm white & nerdy
Just because I'm white & nerdy
All because I'm white & nerdy
Holy cow, I'm white & nerdy
I wanna bowl with... the gangstas
But oh well, it's obvious I'm white and nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
Think I'm just too white & nerdy
I'm just too white & nerdy
Look at me, I'm white & nerdy
