Call of Duty 4 won't be out for sometime, though. I was never a big fan of Halo but I do looking forward to team fortress 2. Ever play an FPS called Undying?

Nope I haven't played that. I also realize CoD 4 won't be out for awhile, but that is good, because it gives me time to save my money and IF I have enough money after buying books and such then I will get it.

Hmmm, it might be related to the Eternal Flame that burns atop the Almighty Paper Bag that is worn upon I pwnd U's head.....

Or maybe it's just that college's tend to jump at the chance to require that you have the latest edition of most books, in which the only change was one word in the middle of the book that had absolutely no impact on the material contained therein

100+ buck for a book! I do hope they have lot of pictures in there. I didn't pay that much for books when I was in college, then again I did the design & art directions course so most of the money went to all my equipments and beers.

Lots of pictures, and two of them came with CD's, but the bio book didn't. Almost all books these days are over $100. Freaking sucks...

Oh my gosh, I know!!! Last year there was one book in particular that costed $150, and they gave me 22 dollars for it...22....I bought it NEW and I had barely used it, it still looked new even! That annoyed the heck outta me. I also still have a book that I had to get first semester last year, beacuse they just weren't taking it back...and they still aren't.

My bookstore actually bought back books at half price. Got my bio book for 65 bucks and got 50 back for it. Worked that way for almost all my books execpt for the 2 I couldn't sell back. >.<

Bad day today, just log on to my guild web page. Apparently our guild leader is tried of everything and will disband the guild tonight at midnight. 80+ active guild members, 14 guilds allies with 150+ members all will be gone. Anyone got room for 8 or 9 new guild members? lol

Wow that sucks. Seems like a lot of the guilds are disbanding and either reforming or just staying disbanded. Kinda odd...

Yeah some of the long term guildies and officers who've been there for 16+ months are well pissed off about this. Dunno what gonna happen yet, might start looking for a new guild soon.

Ya I bet, it would drive me up a wall if SFK just randomly disbanded. Been there for over a year and a half now. Of course I could probably get into another guild pretty fast but still... it would suck.
