A friend posted about Bill Gates going to her sister's high school lately (or something like that). Here were his points (copied from her LJ, not sure if they are direct quotes or anything). I love it!

Snow

The drive in this morning wasn't bad for me at all (plus, shoveling this snow was much better than our last storm because it wasn't as wet/sticky/heavy). We had less snow in Waltham than here in Malden, but they've done a good job keeping up with it with the plows and sanding. Lets see how the drive home is in this freezing rain that WBZ kept talking about. :/

I have 3 meetings scheduled at the Melrose Campus this afternoon and need to take my lunch hour to apply for a passport. It turned out that the branch post office I went to in Waltham last night doesn't do them, and the main office only does them while I'm at work (Mon-Fri, 10-4). Here's hoping I'm able to do it today in either Malden or Melrose and don't have to go searching for *another* post office tomorrow :). Its really weird - I actually have my original birth certificate from Waltham Hospital (with the footprints, gold hospital seal, and all)! If that's not good enough (since its not certified by the city) I have my marriage license too (along with my driver's licence and SS card).

Given all this, I'm taking work with me to Melrose, and will head home from there for the day. As of this point we'll still be planning on going out to Somerville unless things get worse than they've said it will (I'm not really scared of 3-6").
