The final went well. I was nervous as hell going in. Come to find out, about 75% of the questions were exact duplicates from our previous tests, so sometimes I knew the answer without having to work out the problem, even though I did anyway. I knew there would be two long questions, but there was one proof that I didn't think would be on there, so I just glanced over it. Sure enough it was there and I got about half through writing it out when my mind got stuck on the last few steps. I'm hoping I get at least 1/2 credit for it, especially since it's worth 20 points on the test, and those 10 points make the difference between getting an A on the final and getting a B.

Crossing fingers that the final grade is just above the A/B cutoff and not below it.

Speaking of school, although this isn't just a school rant but a LET ME PICK MY OWN GOD DAMNED PASSWORD rant, here are the password requirements for my school sign on:

* Your password must be at least 8 characters long.
* Your password must contain at least three character classes (lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, or special characters).
* You may not reuse any of your last 5 passwords.
* Your may only change your password once every 5 minutes.
* Your password should not contain any part of your name or NetID.
* Your password should not be based on a word found in the dictionary.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR - I am so effing tired of all these damned password rules that are everywhere. More than anything, I hate the fact that they are different every.single.place.you.go.

Heroes fans.

Did you know there are Webisodes to be watched?

(And that when I say that out loud I feel like I'm channeling Elmer Fudd?)

Try this.

I keep getting the same thing, and unfortunately [livejournal.com profile] takhisis is not, so I'm asking you to try this as well. Sort of taking a quick poll to see how often this comes up.

1) Do a Google search for "Rose McGowan" without the quotes
2) Click on the Rolling Stones cover image (should be the third image on the search screen)
3) Click on the thumbnail of the image in the top frame or the "See full-size image" link next to it

4) What do you see?

When I initially clicked I came across a Dharma Initiative terminal. I've tried again with Google Images search and with both Firefox and IE. Takhisis is getting the actual blow-up image of the Rolling Stones cover.
