Oh geez....that was scary
Was just driving home in the altima that my family has, and i went to make a left turn onto my street.... and.... then the entire car started to spin. Honestly if it wasn't for Gran Turismo 3 i think i would have crashed. Well thats what you get when you drive in a snow storm in chicago! Good thing i dont have an 8 right now... the RWD would have been a bit different.
I need one of these .....

Actually the real heavy snow is supposed to start between 9-10PM and not let up until tomorrow afternoon sometime. My wife thinks her work may call a snow day it'll be so bad.
Audioslave, where you at?
Hey G8rboy, what tires do you have?

oh man, i took my 8 to school today (in chicago). Not the smartest thing ive done in a while. To make a long story short, I got stuck a total of 9 times, swirved about 3 times, one of those I almost hit a post, another time a car. I guess i should have listened about the snow tires. Well, im driving the jetta tom.
btw
whos gray rx8 is that on western by burger king
what about the gray one always parked at aj's in joliet
and I also saw a black one driving on kingery rd in joliet

In 96, we had something better than a snow day, flood days! 2 of the larger water pipes on the first floor (the one that is half way underground) blew and flooded the school for like 10 days in the middle of winter. Lol. It was fun

Hmm.. lessee..
freshman year, i remember a spanish teacher named ms. dan. She was like my age back then or younger, and a nympho..
bio teacher was mrs karlin. she went to new trier tho.
algebra 2 honors was mr. oliver.. he was a dork
intro to cs was mr vanderwahl.. he died when i was a senior of heart failure..
art 1 was mrs ackerman... she was cool..
art 2 was mrs fairman.. she was eh..
computer art (i liked art classes.. sue me :b) was mrs huntoon. she'd probably remember me because i taught the entire class how to use photoshop
drafting 1 i had mr. johansen..
hmm.. lotsa teachers.. dont remember the name of my freshman english teacher..
sophmore year i had bill fritz (we called him bill.. he's super gay.. and i learned nothing from him except how to mock teachers)
had mrs vreauls for spanish...
cant remember the name of my 2 geometry teachers (i changed classes) but i didnt like either of them
chemistry i had mr. kelly, he was cool back then
junior year i had mr. ward for english. he'd remember me as he was a wrestling coach and i managed to pin his head to my desk one day when he was messing around with me.. that was funny.
mr. martinez for spanish, the other wrestling coach.. he was funny as hell but a big dork.. i finished his 110 question final in 9 minutes and got an a.
i cant remember the name of my pre-cal teacher but i remember all she talked about was a positive mental attitude.. it got annoying..
physics i took with mr. carmichael. he probably doesnt teach physics anymore.
and i dont think i forgot anyone as i didnt go there for senior year.. i prolly had a few other electives in there but i avoided doing anything extra.. i took all my history classes in summer school tho so it didnt matter.

but it's 4000-5000 students for 4 grades
my high school here for senior year was 3300 students.. for 2 grades..
1700 in my senior class..
EDIT: high schools here are split into High school and "Senior" high school.. freshman-sophmore at 1 school.. junior-senior at another.. some even have 8-10th at 1 school..
