I finally got my new laptop, it has a 17 inch screen, webcam, can take fingerprints so I only have to swipe my finger at times instead of doing passwords, and a bunch of other stuff.

It is kind of odd as lots of things are different dimensions to my old laptop, such as how many characters fit on a line in these forums, so I am having trouble keeping track of how much I am writing and my normal rule of 2.5 lines per sentence won't work.

My cousin's youngest daughter looks like a monkey. She's adorable.

In terms of random thoughts? Well, I've thought of placing a picture of myself in my avatar area but, it's been done before and the feedback was not so nice so, I'll keep my current picture in my avatar area for the time being..

Really? If I am remembering correctly, the avatar of yours that I thought to be a pic of you was a nice looking picture. Shame on the haters... it was a good pic.

As for randomness... I have lost my little portable music player and I am now going to tear up my house looking for it, as I feel somehow incomplete without the little guy. Ack... I hope I find it. This is making me a bit nutty.

From what I remember I thought it was nice too Professor X.
My random thought is I really really want to take a nap but I don't have time.

^ Love it !
That would make a good custom rank or avartar.

My old sig was "Pray to the wrong star in a past life and got cursed in this one thanks a lot Vishnu... you idiot!" ...funny, but, offensive to Hindus.

I'm already a bit used to the new font, but the ! is going to look weird
for a loooong time ! !!

I'd rather be on the Internet than watching TV. I find it more stimulating to express my thoughts, than I do to stare at a TV screen.

My brother is going home on Friday morning, thank heavens.

More on these new fonts: The font size and type for URL links is almost the same as the rest of the text in peoples posts. It's hard for me to tell if there is a link in someone's post unless I hover my mouse over the text

Example URL (bbcoded URL)
Example URL (normal text)

Maybe a little size difference, but I wouldn't be able to see the link there if it was in the middle of a wordy post.
