    For most of you who dont know me, I am Buzz's old freshman roomate who just got into swing dancing. . . Ok no i am not, that was a lie! I am his little brother. I live in Idaho, but I come down on occasion purely to swing dance! Dave believes that talent must run in the family, but i believe he's the only one with any of it! Any who, I plan on going to BYU in about a year and a half, and hopefully when i go swing dancing their, some of you will still be there so i will atleast know a few people!

    Can you do the swivel step like your brother?

    p.s. Ben doesn't look anything like Buzz.

    Buzz, I think you were adopted.

    The truth is I was kidnapped from my palace. I'm really Prince Charming.

    Which is a good thing. I much prefer the way girls swivel. If you were at Harlem Nights think "Ria".

    '=' sets two things equal to eachother. it's always true. i.e

    money_in_my_wallet = 0 isn't a statement about the contents of my wallet, it's a command. if there were any money in my wallet (doubtful, at best) it would be removed.

    '==' on the other hand, is a statement of fact (or falsehood). money_in_my_wallet == 0? would either be true or false, depending on the actual contents of my wallet.

    for the most part money_in_my_wallet == 0 (without a question mark) would be taken as an assertion of truth. i.e. 'i have no money in my wallet.'

    Instead of going to a regular high school she did a sort of combination home school/ college thing.... she was enrolled in a charter school that was part of the public school system, could do the classes like health and social studies on her own time and at her own pace and just have her work and tests reviewed by an instructor, for the classes like spanish, english, drama, chemistry, etc, she went to a local community college and got double credit. So while she was earning credit for high school she also got credit for college. She "graduated" high school at 16, came to the Y and has been here since.

    Wish I could have done that. I hated high school... heh.
