  2. Now you don't post too much,
    But Glen does. And I can't tell him because I can't comment for some reason. Tell him for me? thanks. And p.s. keep posting school-related news, you're the only one that seems to do that.

  3. Ever since Jazz Ensemble started a few weeks ago, I've been too busy to post as often as before. Glen, on the other hand, has way too much free time. Keep visiting the site for the latest school news. Oh, and I'm not gay.

  4. You can't comment because you'd post something obnoxious. Something that would warrant immediate deletion.

    And yes, I do post too much. Ben posts too much all at one (for evidence check out Ben's 12/19 posts). My posts are more spread out. I am on the etudiant for about 8 hours a day, so uh yeah.
