Because we're young and insane, and we're running away for the summer.

I still have my Student of the Year plaque hanging on the wall from fifth grade. Not that I think I'm special or anything. I was just the smartest fifth grader in the history of the world.<P>But I don't want to get carried away. That's never good. I wouldn't, for instance, be interested in starting a whole thread about how 165 years and one day after the Battle of Waterloo a boy who was me happened to be born. I wouldn't want to be pretentious about it.<P>But, of course, I do, I would, and I would again.<P>This is getting out of hand already, I think, so here is a brief Q & A session:<P>Q: What's so different about being 21? It's just an age. Another year scratched off your lifespan. 20 seems like a bigger number, really, as far as changing numbers go. 19 to 20. 20 to 21. It's not as big of a leap, really.<P>A: Obviously, you've never been me when I've turned 21. No fault of your own, of course. I never have been either. But you see, 21, aside from the social meaning attached, is a date inside the 20 continuum. You see? I'm not just 20 now. I'm <i>in</i> my twenties. That is frightening and painful.<P>Q: What did you get?<P>A: I got a shirt and some money from my parents, a card from Slovakia, and a book from Tora Ziyal. Not to mention several birthday greetings from all of you. Thanks. I also got yet another reason for existential angst. Frankly, I'm tired of it already, but that doesn't appear to be a factor that is being taken into consideration.<P>Q: Are you done yet, moron? Idiot! Loser! Horrible, horrible, horrible person I hate!<P>A: Yes.<P>Q: I really love you, of course.<P>A: I love everything. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Sol System</b> <br /><small>Member # 30</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2001,5,19,18,28,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">June 19, 2001</span> <span class="timeformat-0">06:28 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Sheesh.
