Things to do that aren't studying:
10 minutes: Watch and rate some fun videos created by our cs377a class. No huge survey with a zillion questions lurking behind. And most of the videos are fun to watch. You'll be convinced computers are made for mind control. We're hoping one of our two entries wins the contest...not that that should skew your ratings of course...
2 minutes: If you haven't seen it already, find out how CyberDiet (wmv) will change your life. Any Website with a "meditation room" is cool in my book...
3 minutes: Your computer is watching you. (QuickTime 6) Spying on you. The age-old battle between the bored intern and the boss who actually expects him to work...
10 minutes: Your computer's probably not doing anything right now. Not this instant. Even while your sitting at your computer furiously writing a paper or doing "research", it's still mostly idle, just waiting for your keystrokes. A huge amount of power goes to waste. But you can donate that time to Folding@home to help a research lab here understand various diseases by simulating protein folding. Just download the little client (Windows, Mac, even Linux) and enter team 11364. Then you can kill time watching our team stats, generated by someone with too much time on their hands. But what better motivator than to help beat teams with names like Team Ogre, Newtown High School, or Super Poop Heads?

FS : harcore fan $5.00
Metal cage. Solid. not one of those cheap-ass plastic things. Didn't purchase from target. This thing can blow some serious air. It may not win any fashion awards but thins thing rocks. Does not rotate or any of that crap. No gimmicky BS. Just hardcore fan action. Also has given me good luck.
How can you refuse that?
LMoTQ was quite overhyped. So little debauchery. Survey: should we return as sketchy grad students to prey on the freshmen? (or the seniors, I guess)
