- Quote of the Day
  
  If you don’t wan to do, you’ll find yourself an excuse. But if you want to do, you’ll find a solution.
  (a senior (aka suxian) quoting a friend who may or may not be quoting someone else...)
  
  All personal achievement starts in the mind of the individual. Your personal achievement starts in your mind. The first step is to know exactly what your problem, goal or desire is.

- Geography Lesson
  
  The teacher called on Little Johnny to go to the map and point out where North America is. Little Johnny looked the map over, found North America, and proudly said, "Here it is, right here!"
  
  "Very good, Johnny," the teacher said. "Now, class, can you tell me who discovered North America?"
  
  "Little Johnny!" the students shouted.
- Fave geog fact…
  
  During summer in the United States, the Earth is the furthest from the sun it will ever be. During winter it is the closest to the sun it will ever be.
