(Info on bucket list from WSJ article http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203518404577096493595261190.html?mod=djemTECH_h)

At least I could figure out how to turn him off. The new help button in Office 2007 is like an idiot cousin or addled Aunt Ada. It's RIGHT below the "X" to close the program, and I hit it by accident at least once a day. Argh.

So, like, I picked SAT because I'm good at standardized tests and I, like, got an NMSQT scholarship based on my high score. It only took me 8 tries on the PSAT and SAT to get my score to 1310 (or 1290, I forget which). The last time I took the SAT, my score actually went down a few points, so I figured I had reached the zenith of my test taking ability and should quit while I was ahead. In January, I took a job teaching at university and now I can torture students with tests I make up...Life is good.
