Kinda true in a way.  Met lots of people who applied to Stanford and didn't get in.  Not as many the other way around.  Though once in Cal I think is much more hard core with grades than just about any school in the country.

Yes, it's the constant refrain of Stanford students when we think about our rival in the bay.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

???

Who are you?  You went to Berkeley? 


Yep, right after I got out of the slammer. I was still hooked on smack at the time, and I made my home in the bushes next to Bancroft Steps. Lots of pretty girls made their way through there. I got most of my food from the International House dumpster, which is why I say I lived there. Good eats.














... For some reason, most people seem just as surprised when I tell them, but yeah, I'm class of '08. :) I was Testy on the old forum - posted about 3 times a year.

He's pro-Palestianian, and a tree-hugger.  One or the other of those is gonna rub a lot of people the wrong way.

Cool dude.  Lived in Unit 1 and then on College Ave most of the time, and for a bit near Telegraph.  Never tried the I House dumpsters, but they used to have some nice parties.  And the cafe used to serve booze without ID.   ;D

I lived in Unit 1 my first year, too -- in Slottman, one of the new neo-brutalist buildings with the rectangles sticking out of them -- then I moved up to Panoramic, right across from the stadium.

When I was in unit 1, I was in Freeborn...which fucking sucked.

Okay, what was I going to say?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

You predicted that Testy went to Berkeley, despite the fact that we don't really know much about him?

You know, you're a terrible lawyer, but a first-rate psychic.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

I had a post planned in this thread but I'm waiting for Marty to predict what it is.  He'll probably just say "there's no way to predict you and then insult me". :(  That sounds like something that jerkweed would do.

He knew you were going to post that.  :)
