True...Stanford went 1-11.  3-9 is an improvement over that.
"I believe every single person is extraordinary. The tragedy is that we
have a society where too many people never get to fulfill that
extraordinary potential. My view – the liberal view – is that
government’s job is to help them to do it. Not to tell people how to
live their lives. But to make their choices possible, to release their
potential, no matter who they are. The way to do that is to take power away from those who hoard it. To challenge vested interests. To break down privilege. To clear out the bottlenecks in our society that block opportunity and block progress. And so give everyone a chance to live the life they want." - Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

Baylor... so mebbe not so much game time... but I'm happy I got gamers for roomies, yes!

See, I think guys are lucky in that respect.  Your new roomie walks in with a video game console and everyone thinks "Yes, awesome!"  A girl does that and she likely to encounter something more like this:

"Oh, you're not going to put it on that, are you?  I wanted to put my make-up there."

Heh, lol. Or, "What is that?"
Music is the key to the heart.

"Once art to me was something far off, unfathomable and unreachable... But I discovered that the real essence of art was not something high up and far off, it was right inside my ordinary daily self. If a musician wants to be a fine artist, he must first become a finer person. A work of art is the expression of a person's whole personality, sensibility, and ability." -Shinichi Suzuki
