Difference is, I can wear heels, you need some major depilation on those eyebrows, which will cause excrutiating amounts of PAIN!

I know, too bad I still have to take it because of my ADHD and the intensive course load I normally have in combination with the nature of my major .

You know the Boyer-Moore theorem? Well, Boyer was actually my professor for programing theory, one of the best profs I've ever had btw, not to mention a really nice guy too . And Moore was also part of the CS/Math departement at one point (not sure if he's still around though). Not to sound superficial or anything, but it's actually an honor to be taught by some of these people. The great part about Prof. Boyer other than just being incredibly intelligent and articulate is that he's also one of the most humble and compassionate human being human beings I've ever met. So yeah, I'm pretty sure I don't need to elaborate any further on how demanding it is .

Suppose it might be, I've been doing it for years though and... oh damn, I've got the gay.

Well, alot of your male customers are probably gay then , unless it some kind of new trend I don't know about. No straight male in my age group that I know of gets anything like that done . We're simple creatures really, get a hair cut, shower, and shave every x days. I don't know, maybe Australian/European men are just more gay than us or something, which is a strange concept in itself assuming they're straight . Did that make sense ?

Haven't worked in a beauty salon for close to 10 years, never sold mens cosmetics because you dont spend money on them anyway. Aside from that, yes most men regardless of their preferences or nationality are fairly grotty, unkept creatures unless beaten into shape or nagged...

I went to UT for years. You don't have to tell me about the CS program. Althought I still think it is better for someone to major in Math if they want to be a programmer I still know they have a great CS program.

Cool. Didn't know that. What was your major?

At the time philosophy, but I've since learned the error of my ways and I'm currently majoring in chemistry and minoring in mathematics.
And I'm not actually to proud of my time spent at UT. It was my last choice school. My parents wouldn't let me go out of state but if I had my way I'd of gone to NYU or Carnegie, maybe even Brown, but I don't like to talk about that very much it makes me sad.

Are you suggesting we need to start ? Jesus, don't tell me that's another double standard ... well, in a sense it does reflect one, but come on!

Well, I'm a CS major, so I can't really complain about anything, other than that nasty stench in the basement of Taylor Hall at times (where the Unix/Linux labs are). My brother on the other hand, who was also a CS major (and did a minor in eigther Economics or Business) went to Carnegie Mellon. But he also got around 30K in grants and loans .
