Hello, all! I just want to tell everyone that they, in all seriousness, need to get Mozilla Firefox. If you have Internet Explorer, or any browser that uses an Internet Explorer shell (e.g. AOL Explorer, Comcast browser, et cetera) you really need to get Firefox. There are many reasons; among which are security, pop-ups, features, and plain-old ease of use. Folks, I beg of you to please go straight on over to http://www.getfirefox.com and get Firefox. Please.

You will thank me later.

Well, I'm bored and I really wish that Marianne would get on AIM. I made her account yesterday for both AIM and G-mail. I'm not going to give out her info, because if she get's spammed on AIM or G-mail, then she probably won't use them. All, I found a whole bunch of stuff on how to ask a girl out, not that I'm going to ask someone out tomorrow during Spanish, or anything. (No folks, it is not Marianne, I PROMISE!!)

No Daily Fact!!

Question of the Day: When did you first go out with someone, or have a girl/boyfriend?

And in case your wondering, I have not ever had a girlfriend, except when I had Elizabeth in kindergarten, but I don't think I'll consider that since we were only like 5 years of age.

Well, again, not much happening. I'm just here doing homework. After thinking about it, I don't think gym will be that bad, as long as there are no fights, and they give us enough time at the end of the period to change back into our school things.

Random Fact of the Day: On this day in 1608, a fire destroyed Jametown, Viriginia, the first permanent English settlement in the United States of America.

Hey!! I know I don't usually update so often, but did any see Fox News Channel on the night of 1-6-06? Well, at the bottom in the news ticker, it said that Harry Potter and the Half-Blooded Prince sold so many copies this year. Well, it should be Half-Blood of course, but this is an interesting typo because... well, just read what I wrote the http://www.leakynews.com and http://www.mugglenet.com as a news contribution:

I was watching the Fox News Channel at around 9:46 P.M. EST and noticed that the bottom news ticker said that "Harry Potter and the Half-Blooded Prince" sold so many copies this year. Of course, it should be Half-Blood, not Half-Blooded. I just thought this was a weird typo as before the book came out there was speculation as to whether the prince mentioned in the book's title was a prince who was a half-blood, or was the prince of all half-bloods.

Just a contribution to your excellent site. Also, I love the podcast!!
