$400

I feel a little guilty, but I scored $400 bucks from graduate studies to attend the RMAC in Park City. In my application, I implied that my research would help shape economies in developing nations.

Anyone else score? And yes, I am going to hell...

Props. As Snoop dog used to say, "I keep my mind on my money and my money on my mind." I say you take it when you can get it. Sounds like ASU grad studies hooks you guys up.

I should have said that it was BYU. And that I essentially took money from all of you who are still there.

Chris,

Had you taken it from BYU, you wouldn't have been taking money from us, you would have been taking it from the Lord...right?

The windows of Heaven would have been slammed in your face ala Marti Allen.

The Heathen Money of ASU is different though, so it's okay to steal from them.

Well done on your ability to convince Graduate studies to give you some extra food money.

What's wrong with you people?! He did take it from BYU (i.e. all of you)(and THE LORD). My only complaint is that I didn't get any. Got my rejection notice last night. So ummm...Yeah...that was wrong Chris! How dare you take money from poor graduate students at BYU who are trying to ...yeah ok. Never mind. Dude, when you have a wife and kid, all bets are off. Good on ya.

It wasn't exactly a lie. I said that by studying prehistoric emergent economic complexity, we could gain insights relevant to the third world.

I mean we could couldn't we? I never said that that was the point of my paper.

I was just kidding, no accusations. Just respect. We should all rejoice in the successes of others right?

threw on an avatar partly inspired by Mr. Yoder's suggestion of messing around with the FoF letters. It's a rough draft, but I decided to give it a try.

Looks kind of like something you shoot out of the sky in Contra(NES).
