      What? White Christmas? That seems random...

      Until you read that they put that idea in their heads.

      Sooooo......
      According to this origin, if you follow a "mysterious old man" down into the subway tunnels alone....
      And if you "say my name"....
      ....
      ..
      .
      You get struck by a "bolt of magic lightning".

      Sounds dirty.

      Princess Leia did cocaine on 'Empire' set

      Star Wars" actress Carrie Fisher admitted Monday to taking cocaine on the set of "The Empire Strikes Back", saying she didn't even like the drug but was intent on getting high.

      The Princess Leia actress, now 53, said her life had been defined by addiction, with stints in psychiatric hospitals and rehab clinics -- even the emergency room with an overdose.

      "We did cocaine on the set of 'Empire', in the ice planet," Fisher told Australian newswire AAP, referring to the setting of the second film in the original "Star Wars" trilogy.

      "I didn't even like coke that much, it was just a case of getting on whatever train I needed to take to get high," she said while visiting Sydney for her "Wishful Drinking" stand-up comedy show.

      Now a writer and comedienne, Fisher's turn as Princess Leia in the 1977-1983 "Star Wars" saga was by far her most famous role.

      "The Blues Brothers" co-star John Belushi warned her that she had a problem prior to his own death from a drug overdose in 1982, and Fisher said she ultimately came to realise how dangerous her habits were.

      "Slowly I realised I was doing a bit more drugs than other people and losing my choice in the matter," she said. "If I'd been addicted to booze I'd be dead now, because you just go out and get it."

      Fisher was born into Hollywood -- her mother, musical starlet Debbie Reynolds, was married to veteran crooner Eddie Fisher. Fisher, who died last month, left the family for Elizabeth Taylor when Carrie was just two.

      The former star said she did not blame her broken family or the pressures of celebrity for her addictions.

      "It's always been my responsibility," she said. "If it was Hollywood (to blame), then we'd all be dope addicts."

      Carrie Fisher doing drugs? No, not the part of the story that caught my eye. When JOHN F'N BELUSHI tells you that YOU have a drug problem? That's when you stop.

      Today has been the worst day I've had in a long time. Having a bad day at work is one thing, but this...

      I let my Wife down. Again. I can't do what she does. I try, but things always go wrong. I forget something. Something falls through the cracks. And then it just compounds from there. Worst part is that I get defensive, even though she's right and justified in her stance. Never good. I hate when she's mad at me. Can't stand it.

      Ok, so WVU has the Regents Bachelor of Arts degree that's set up for "working adults that have responsibilities other than school". In general, that means night classes, accelerated classes (done in a shorter period than a semester), and online classes.

      What I don't understand is: why don't they have a Computer Science area of emphasis? Seems to me that would be a natural fit. And the area that I would most like to emphasize in....

      Hmm....

      Deep Thoughts....

      After almost two months working this new job, and a drastically new shift, I've been thinking.

      That's the best, and worst, part of my new job. The position is physically tiring, but doesn't really take a lot of mental effort.

      Another of the benefits is a pretty decent tuition reimbursement program.

      So, I've been thinking about going back to college. At 33 years old. Married, with three kids. Working midnights. (Is there anyway I could make this more difficult?)

      Now, WVU does have a "Regents Program" aimed for working adults, and that would probably be the way that I would have to go. And with their online-available classes...

      Thoughts?

      EDIT: Just for clarifications, this couldn't happen until the Spring semester.... So, that'd be a couple of months away.

      Wait. So, these coffee beans have passed through an animal's digestive system?

      Now, I love some coffee, but this might be pushing the issue...
