Ah, the things that can be done on computers!
That actually sounded more dirty than I intended.
Don’t ask.

I'm probably one of the last school children who remember what it was like to go to an actual library to search the encyclopedias for data and if computers were used, all works were stored on a floppy. Good times.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
Ah, the good ol' floppy... and I ain't talking about someone getting coke dick.

I miss libraries. I really love books. Everything about them. The manufacture, contents, smell, feel, the aura of respect and reverence in the library (just wtf was that quiet rule all about.. we aren't allowed to be excited by books?).
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
