If I expect my readers to keep reading, and people to pass on my page of pleasantries, I'm gonna have to snazz this bad boy up and get my act together. Seems a lot of people are waiting for me to get my act together, starting with my professors... but they'll have to wait too, won't they.

So forgive my funk and overlook my ornriness. I don't mean any of it... unless I don't like you, in which case I mean all of it!

===============================

And can I just say that Pepsi "Holiday spice" thing seems like a HORRIBLE, DISGUSTING, REPULSIVE idea... so if any of you other folks are brave enough to give it a whirl, let me know what you think.
