Yes. I'm also starting work on my Ph.D., so the avatar seems relevant.

...so, is MorbidAngel4Life gone, due to he and JimmieMac's little tiff? Lame.[/quote]
I talked to Morbid on AIM last night for awhile, he said he's just taking a brief hiatus to try and let things cool down.
I think the real problem is that people take Jimmie too damn seriously; remember it's only an internet message board. I know it is CAG, but still in no way should something someone says about you over the internet bother you, unless you know the person in real life.
Jimmie, I appreciate you trying to bring the focus of the topic back to Andre the Giant/wrestling, and I'd appreciate it if everyone else would do the same.
Of course... as I say that, I feel obligated to ask Myke what he's working on getting a Ph.D in. My first and only guess will be astrophysics (I'm pretty sure LedHed is the only one that would get that).[/quote]
Sociology; I would be in Criminal Justice (my area of research interest is corrections), but I feel that my options in soc are much greater. I still have another 3-4 years to go, give or take. I have a few major exams to occupy me next year, and starting (hopefully) in mid-2006, I'll start doing some interview work for the project I'm proposing for my dissertation (which would involve interviewing recidivists - those who have left prison and returned on subsequent offenses). I think corrections is important, and I hope to do some cross-cultural research in the future (i.e., get grant money to study prisons in Japan, and propose hypotheses why such a densely populated industrialized nation has so little crime compared to the United Stated). I enjoy what I do, but I sometimes question what I've chosen to look at. This is most evident when I talk to a colleague (first year M.A. student) who is studying emotional labor in strippers. He's going to collect his own data, he tells me.
HI-larious.
The last thing I'll say about JM and MA4L's brutal public breakup: I understand enough to only take very few people seriously online; that having been said, sometimes this place looks a little too much like GameFaqs for my own comfort. I imagine that, much like persistently online nerds (such as myself), no matter how frequently we claim to disappear, we do lurk quietly. That having been said, I look forward to the day when MA4L decides to show up again. For

's sake, someone here has to like JBL for the rest of us.

...Guyver, I appreciate you passing on that QD; hopefully, this will work with Cingular. Allow me to cross my fingers.
Alright kids, back to the shenanigans. Go look at Gail Kim's boobs.
