My whining thread!

[Paddy]

Sorry Dimitri, you never did say what pre-med is?

I probably should know!

[Muad'Dib]

My bad, that was in one of the messages I cancelled and forgot to resend. Ooops. Pre Med = Pre Medicine. At my school and I think most american universities , you have to take a whole crapload of science classes before you can get into medschool. Hence the "Pre...."

[Paddy]

no, 10% of the exam was on "the satges of coitus"

wtf?

Still I had ago, i included the 'rolling over and falling asleep, whilst at the same time pinchig all the quilt' phase!

I dont think my tutor is going to like that!

[Paddy]

Here in the UK we get all the crap sciences classes at the same time!

I mean come on, who is interested about the adult derivitive of the gubenaculum and mullarian ducts?

[Muad'Dib]

That's classic!!! The tutor may not like it, but the rest of us will.... hahhaha

Damn, I really need some coordination so I can get the stupid "A's" after the damn "H's" without having double letters. You woudn't imagine it would be so hard....

[Paddy]

btw, what is the UBB code for increasing the size of the font?

well i am on my 4th can of Stella now so does it really matter?

[Muad'Dib]

Hmmm, I've never even heard of that stuff..... Probably a good thing too, eh? lol. Damn, my connection to this site is really starting to suck. Is yours working still?

[Paddy]

Mine is GREAT! - perhaps i have nicked some of your bandwith!

Stella is a belgium larger

got to go as the wife is calling

Cheers for the chat,
Patrick

[Muad'Dib]

I don't know UBB code from my a$$ dude. Haven't you seen all the crap Jorden gives me cause of that!?! Maybe if I re-read my posts it would help though.

[Muad'Dib]

Take it easy Patrick. Next time we know to go straight to the "fori" and forget about ICQ straight away, eh? Have fun with the wife....

[Muad'Dib]

Geez, my roommate just whooped my a$$!!! Freakin Shao-Lin masters.... lol. I guess a white guy will never take out a shao-lin master even in pretend fighting, eh? Damn, I got like 50 pounds of muscle on him too....

Dimitri who now needs to go to the doctor and see what's broken and what's not....

[Paddy]

Come here Dimitri let me see whats wrong

[motub]

To answer the only question I actually understand in your conversation , increasing the font size is not done with UBB code, but with HTML.

Try clicking the 'edit' button on any post with such enlarged, colored, or blinking/scrolling text to see how it was done (you can't change anyone else's post by going into the edit screen for it, since you don't know their pw, but you can look at the UBB/HTML code, or simply copy it).

You could also look at How Do They Do That With HTML?, A Beginner's Guide to HTML, or The BareBones Guide To HTML for more information.

Patrick, I hope that, despite missing some questions, you nonetheless did very well on the test.

And as to whether I'll be PO'd at you having a conversation here rather on ICQ...well, it's always nice to see people making friends...and you both seem reasonable about not eating up all the server space with your talk...

.... but I wouldn't be fair to space7 and andrei (where is space7, anyway, I wonder?) if I didn't suggest that you give ICQ <u>chat</u> a try, if I(nstant) M(essaging) is too slow. It usually works well for me, even with people that I have trouble IM-ing.

Just a concept

Raise you glasses to Dimitris cousin's new baby boy

Speak to you later,

Patrick

[Paddy]

Thanks Holly,

I am sorry, our conversation must seem a bit disjointed.

As for the exam: I have found out that medicine is politics, and that in order to pass an exam you dont need to get the questions correct, you need to do better than at least 20 people.

I hopefully will be fine, but if not well I can always resit.

And as for AOLs IM and the like: My problem is that i am connection through a mobile phone, which limits my connection to 9.6k which as i am sure you can remember all thoses years agor is painfully slow. I hope that I am not abusing your space...but thanks for your input

sigh, nobody left to talk to....

thanks Holly,

Patrick
