Because you were undercover, did you ever engage in drinking or doing drugs or doing anything else to fit in so that your cover wouldn’t be compromised?

Um, boy, that is a good question that I haven’t figured out how to answer. I guess you could say I did anything I needed to do to blend in as a typical college student. I guess I could say that much. They do throw good parties.

The slut.

Looks like some of the new cool tv's might be desync'ing audio and video.

Average CRTs do not have audio and video synchronization problems because the time needed to process video and audio — thousandths of a second — is about the same ... But when advanced TVs, LCDs and plasma displays add enhanced picture-improvement functions like deinterlacing, motion-adaptive conversion and scaling, the result is video processing that takes more time than audio processing

The way I read it, they're trying to pay for the bus, not a ride on the bus.
