Give me back Wright and Wright printers, please... Errol got his jollies hiding the pickles at work again today. Elderly lady became very angry. On the bright side, I happened to witness the manager as he was silly-stringed by a bunch of ten-year-olds. Don't think he was too pleased, and neither were the ten-year-olds as they were chased out by a silly-string covered bald man in his 50s, but most of us got a kick, at least...[/blockquote] |

Apprenticeships went way back to my day, too. But upon the dawn of the modern era, such a means is, well, generally obsolete. No one knows what they went to do anymore, anyways. I certainly don't.
Just so long as it isn't dealing with a travelling school group in a hotel lobby.
Where do you work, that Errol hides pickles and old ladies get mad...?
The silly string sounds epic, though.

Leaning toward aerospace. I know my strengths...and my interests. Plus it may be the only way I get to take apart things I've been curious about for years. Traveling school group in a hotel lobby? Do tell. Adnama's Grocer. Stock Boy Wright. I do not like the sound of that. The silly string was epic though, thankfully. Almost makes up for the situation.[/blockquote] |

I can see you doing that. NASA, or something, First into the sky, first onto Mars? I just wish my own pursuits had more relevant ties today.
Eighth grades from some nearby town. They had to stay here for the night to catch the bus in the morning. Babysitting them was....special. Why couldn't their teachers have done it? But alas, the bellboy had to. xP
Stock boy Winchester, you mean. My mother thinks Adama's is kinda expensive with the produce, though she does buy the pickles....

Joan said something along those lines earlier in the school year. I do admit that it's an enticing prospect, but I doubt it will happen. I seems as though the scientists and astronauts are usually kept apart. If I'm working on the actual shuttle itself than chances are I won't be going on it. Still a nice thought, though. NASA is a definite possibility. So much I could work on there! Doesn't even necessarily need to be the shuttles themselves, although I think that would be fascinating. Oh boy, 8th graders. Any crazy stories? Then again, I can't say much, I'm a 9th grader...physically. Sigh. Stock boy Winchester I suppose. I guess I'd rather have stock boy added to my last name in this life than my last name in my past life, I can say that much.[/blockquote] |

You could probably do both. Astronauts have to be crazy smart, after all. And they'd probably need a repair dude on the shuttle. I don't know, exactly, but this is what I would guess.
Well, they are a crazy story in themselves. They quite enjoyed asking me odd questions about Riverdale I have no idea how to answer.
Fair enough. I don't want to be bellhop Saladin, but bellhop Azizi is okay...I suppose.

Thanks for the crazy smart comment... Odd questions about Riverdale? That sounds like fun. There's a good chance that some of those kids might have been reincarnates too. Did you catch anything odd by any chance, lol? It's what we're stuck dealing with, Saladin. We have to build our way back up from the bottom. Though I would like a job where Errol didn't bother me too much.[/blockquote] |

I'm not a recruiter, but none caught my eyes. I think Riverdale is a blip in the system, to be honest. Probability laws are simple rewritten as per a divine power, be it of Allah, or physics.
I don't mind working my way back up, though I can see why you would. The Crusades are over in my books. What remains is a black hole of destruction. I'm not happy with it by any means but my era has changed and I've got to adapt to it. The power of military might isn't going to do it, though not due to lack of destructive force.

I'm glad he relocated to a bunk. I think so too. There's just too much going on here to be chalked up to pure chance. I don't mind working my way back up either - at least, not entirely. Black hole of destruction? I can, to some extent, understand how that feels. Not to the extent that you can, but imagine my reaction at Pearl Harbor. Then think about Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and finally, 9/11. Once upon a time, I thought the airplane would be used to end war. Now? It's been used to cause war. [/blockquote] |

That sounds very awkward...the most I trip over is my dog, but usually she doesn't sleep in my way.
I'm tempted to write my theories out on rsor.com, to see if anyone else has theories.
Don't start me on 9/11, fly-boy. Still, your inventions lead to the freaking moon landing. Though, as bitter as I may be about how my world went, it is quite amusing to be playing Assassin's Creed and participate in the events from a totally different angle. Half the RSOR gets mentioned in that game series, I swear. And fun fact: Sir HC continually quotes it.

Your dog is less likely to flail in an awkward way. 9/11's a rough subject with me too, Sultan Azizi. Not only did I apparently ask my mother if Adolf Hitler was going to attack now, but my sister already had enough to deal with. She'd blocked out the memories of her death until that year, and had just gotten over things when this happened. Talk about taking a step backward. Are you mentioned? That's strange, makes you wonder if he knows more than he's letting on. I doubt I'm in Assassin's Creed, but flight simulator games are usually good for oddities. The Wright Flyer does not go hundreds of miles per hour, by the by. I can't tell you how awkward things would have been if it did. [/blockquote] |

Chalarles Darwin is not my dog. I doubt he does any crotchsniffing when you're half awake.
I went on a crazy rhetoric about Islam, in my elementary school, in New York City. That didn't go over well...though I can't imagine asking if Hitler is attacking when you're a child could go any better. That must have caused some wtf amount your parents.
No, you're not mentioned, but I'm surprised you're not. I am, Vaughn is, Isa, Lex, Skylar, Kass, Marcus is a main character, Angelo, Cox, Principal Hanston and Conte. And they're not even done the games yet.

That he does not. They weren't exactly expecting it, I can say that much. I was in kindergarten, what kindergartener asks something like that? Most of their attention afterward was focused on Cindy anyway. I was just the five year old who asked about Hitler, she was having a panic attack. ...wow. I may way to play this game at some point then. So long as it isn't entirely along the same vein as Call of Duty. [/blockquote] |

Well, that's a good thing he doesn't.
True. Panic attacks > random Hitler reference. That's probably to the better, given everything. In a way. I'm sorry about your sis. D:
It's nowhere near like Call of Duty. Google it, or something. It's epicness.
