A good friend once told me that you get out of T.Y. what you put in, well I paid my voluntary subscription, bought six raffle tickets, doshed out cash hither and tither, and with two weeks left, I'm expecting something big. I suppose I'll be waiting.

Started this website way back in October '99, 9 months later, the baby's born! I'd like to thank Rory Sobolewski, Kevin O'Toole, Stephen Carroll, Dara Munnis for skipping class with me. I'd also like to thank all the teachers that gave me time off class, without your support I wouldn't have become the best Duke Nukem player in Benildus.

I'd like to thank Mr. Mullvyhill for purchasing the vending machines, those things are great! Although, they've eaten so much of my money. I have too though...

The following songs have helped inspire this site, and also cause a great diversion when all the teachers have left the computer room:

    Limp Bizkit - Faith
    Placebo - Nancy Boy
    Apollo 440 - Stop The Rock
    Billy Joel - She's Always A Woman
    Billy Joel - We didn't start the fire

If you're looking for songs to add to your collection, I reccomend those, and don't forget Christy Moore Live At The Point, a classic in it's own right.

I missed about 900 (5 days a week, 4 weeks a month, 9 months, and an average of 5 classes a day) classes all year, and some days (like today), I don't even go to a single class. I've only missed about 5 maths classes though, only because a certain teacher is a meanie! Now that's the life!

Anyway, hope you like the site!
