Well once again I am taking another test for another class. No problem. My friend (from the first blog) had an old test for us to look at. I went over to her house and began studing or trying. She really needs to turn off her cell phone. Anyways, one of her roommates was there as well. She is a little strange (into the whole sci-fi and is a very free spirit ) but really friendly.

At around midnight, she mentions that we should go play the Boobie game. I was and at the same time. They both seemed excited and told me how they spents hundreds of dollars on the game. So we decide to go to a bar that had this game after I we done studying. Sure enough we get there and we start playing. It was basically find the differences between the 2 pictures, except with naked women in the picture. I must say it was a really fun game, but I was more surprised how they seemed to like it. Heck, the bartender thought the two ladies were with me. My ego was getting stroked when he said that.

We ended beating their old high score. In the future, I hope to play more of the Booby game.

I attended a lecture tonight about the building of the Pyramids. You know, the REALLY big 3 that tourists visit every year. I must say it was interesting to see what he had to say. Before I go on, let me give you some background on some facts about the Pyramids (The Giza Pyramid specifically).

1. It was built in only 23 years. This is incredibly short amount of time to accomplish something this large.

2. It was constructed with over 2.3 million blocks of stone.

3. It is nearly perfectly aligned to the North, only 1/15 of a degree off.

4. It is nearly perfectly level. There is only a 17 inch difference in height at the base.

5. The average stone weighs 15 tons.

and a good website that has some more facts.

Those are great and all, but something doesn't add up. In order to build the Pyramids, a stone would have to be put in place a 60 seconds(do the math and it'll prove it). According to the classical theory, workers would haul these stones up a giant ramp and place the stone. Now, I am not sure how they could move those stones that fast and put them in place. There is another problem. As you get to the top, you'll run out of place to place the stone effectivly. You also have to expand the ramp to unimgainable proportions(1/4 long if I remember correctly).

To solve this, he says that the top layer as well as the outer sides were casted in..AKA poured in like concrete and compacted for strength. The material they used was a mixture of different materials. Limestone was heated to 900 C to retreive the calcium(very good for strength). From his limited amount of samples he has tested, the composition is different from the natural surroundings.

Now there are some flaws in his arguement. For one, he theorized about 12% of the pyramid used the casting technique. This means there is still 2 million blocks being moved by...

Well, if anyone knows my posts, I do like politics alot. However, I am going in a different direction with my blog. It won't be about worldly fares or actually anything truely important. It will just be about the day to day things that most people come across. I hope you enjoy reading them and don't forget to leave me a comment.

Well, I hope I could start off cheerful, but this really depresses me. A good female friend of mine who is in one of my classes has been dating this one guy for almost 2 years. Now he is also in the same class and I seem to get along with him.

However, the man has a darker side. My friend has caught him twice dating with other girls and lying about it. In fact, he lies all the time about many things. Consequently, they have broken up....many times. She just doesn't want to let go of him no matter how much he treats her like dirt. I can't simply understand it. Does she feel like he is the only one? Is she afraid of feeling alone? Does she really love him that much to overcome all of the lies?

I am hoping to get a female perspective of things on this matter. Why would anyone put themselvs throught this?
