True. I know the html, but I have a problem with the Java. Unfortunately,
the DSO guy isn't very technically oriented. I am not sure what is going
to happen yet, but I just hope I won't have to take that class. I probably
won't do very well in it, probably because of limited success I've had
with it. I know classes I would do well in, but those aren't until later.
So for now, I have to deal with possibly taking this Java class that is
completely pointless for me. I won't apply it anywhere, not to mention
that I am the one paying for it. Well in reality, its the state. But
still.

May you code in the power of the source,
may the kernel, libraries, and utilities be with you,
throughout all distributions until the end of the epoch.
