IMs of the Week

   IMs.  The most important communication device of the 21st century.  Or something.  Sometimes they're just funny.  Here I will begin, in case anyone cares (though like most of this website it's more for my own amusement), to cull fragments of IMs that were particularly amusing.   Enjoy, or whatever.

Week of 29 December 2002

I guess there just aren't that many IMs when I'm at school.   Fortunately, I'm not at school over break, giving Drew the chance to put us back on the board.
