Sure, it changed on a daily basis, but they'd help me out when doing stuff on the computer. On tests, well, Mainframe didn't help much with PreCal and Trig.

Not at all true, but still funny.

Not the first time I heard about things like this either. Also, someone else had gotten suspended for bringing 1 green plastic army man.

i love it how people think because you go to college youre going to get a high paying job.. so not true..it will definatly help out with getting a job but not neccessarily a high paying one.

Come on, Lowjacked was just being encouraging, no need to be so grumpy.

Let's not pick fights and keep this about our buddy Strider, and good luck to him on his days at school!

Best thing to do is your home work right after school if possible.That way after supper you can have your time to play with your joes and things. That work is still pretty fresh in your mind so it will be easier to do. __________________ My Collections http://www.flickr.com/photos/22356329@N03/sets/

As bad as school was I always looked forward to getting home, and locking myself in my toy room and playing with the Joe figures. One time in the 7th grade my mom let me take a treasure troll to school to place on my desk while taking a math class in hopes that it bring me luck and I'd actually pass the test. I ended up starting a fad where nearly every student was bringing trolls to school, and the school ended up banning them.
