    What's your degree in. Is it in magic?

    That would probably be a more marketable skill, actually. It's in 'Television/Radio,' concentration video production, minor marketing.

    So basically if you need a lighting board patched,

    When Tom Cruise says the word 'smart' in the trailers for that movie it makes me think he's trying to be a tough guy because he says the word weird and I start to focus on it and it becomes a big deal and it doesn't sound good

    The worst parts about building a computer, for me, was the sickening crunch the processor makes when you lock it in (this is normal) and then getting the rails for the optical drive backwards.
