80 years until you die?? You're rather optimistic. I said "if I'm lucky". I'm not the most lucky person in the world. So it's more like only 70 years. Maybe 60. Maybe three days (but I hope not) But I need to make it to 96 if I want to finish reading all the books I want to read. :roll: D...

I wish they showed the fencing on TV. My laptop's sound quality sucks, so I can't the touches called, and I can't tell by just watching because:
1. They're faster than the people in my class.
2. I'm not used to watching sabre anyway. I fence foil.

I used to have such a crush on Norman Bates. The way Anthony Perkins played him made him look so.... cute. XD.

And Zaphod Beeblebrox, because he's just plain awesome.

And I always picture the Count of Monte Cristo as being incredibly handsome.

I just finished "Twenty Years After", by Alexandre Dumas. Great book, although for it to make sense, you have to read "The Three Musketeers" first. "Twenty Years" is better than "Musketeers", if you don't mind reading 788 pages.
