Yes, I know, I'm not reading LJ....

or just about anything else. I get trapped by the computer (shiny!) and lose hours, so I avoid it. Medication stinks (you may substitute a synonym, but let's keep this PG, please!) So if I need to know something important, send me email--I'll check it out.

In the meantime--I can't actually watch this, of course, my computer is a Luddite and refuses QuickTime, or to use MSP or RealTime as designed--but the description of it sounds like how my brain feels right now. So enjoy--finals week at a big university. Gotta love it! It makes my dinosaur screams at midnight seem very small school. Of course, I went to a small school...

Two students at the University of Michigan, dressed up as Pac-Man and the Ghost respectively, ran through the UGLi (the Undergraduate Library) and the Fishbowl (a huge computer lab on Central campus) during finals week. Pac-Man screams in horror as the Ghost chases him yelling "Waka Waka Waka." This video has spread like wildfire on campus, and killed the original hosting site's bandwidth.

Back to cook some spiced nuts...
