62.5%

Final exams were Wednesday and Thursday. They were supposed to occur just before winter break, but the end of the semester got pushed back two weeks because we lost two weeks to Hurricane Wilma. And also, since we're making up days like crazy, one of the exam days had to be a full day instead of the usual half day. So on Wednesday, instead of having 1st and 2nd block exams and then going home, we had the 1st block exam, regular 2nd block, regular 3rd block, and the 4th block exam. (If they had two exams in the morning and regular classes in the afternoon, people would leave early.) Anyway, here's the obligatory and ubiquitous review of the exams I took, for anyone who cares.

• Spanish (1st block): A multiple choice test, with some writing at the end. Pretty easy.
  As a side note, my 10th and final year of Spanish has finally ended. (In memoriam of my knowledge of Spanish, 1996-2006.)
• English (4th block): Writing an SAT-style essay, writing an essay about a dynamic character from something we've read, and a crossword puzzle featuring many of our 100 vocabulary words. The crossword puzzle was easy.
• AP Euro (2nd block): Not actually a final exam -- the class runs for the whole year -- and not cumulative either. It was pretty much a short (50 multiple choice questions) test on the chapters we've done in the past week. Some questions were kind of tricky, but #50 was a freebie.
• Chemistry (3rd block): More multiple choice fun, along with some math. No writing, actually. It was pretty easy, but that's because I studied the stuff I forgot.

So, it's been four whole semesters since I noted that I had spent 12.5% (1 semester) of my high-school schooling. Hard to believe, but it's true. The next semester awaits, but first we have a looong weekend. There was no school today (as usual), Monday is Martin Luther King Day, and Tuesday is a planning day for the teachers (because even when you change teacher planning days to school days to make up for hurricane days, you still need to have planning days).

Anyway, I must answer Ask Jordon.

Peter: How did you get the code for http://www.theworldofstuff.com/blah? Is it a PHP version of Wpoison?

Nope, but it's obviously pretty similar. It's a PHP script called honeypot.

Peter: Do you know anything I can use to track what sites visitors come from to get to a site?

If you can have a look at your access logs, that would be the best thing. You could then download a tool to analyze them and spit out pretty graphs. I tried that, but the logs quickly grew too huge to be kept on the server. I'd recommend Extreme Tracking, which I've used since the beginning.

Here's how The Beatles Changed Everything. It's true. I can even think of more things that they didn't mention.

How about some 360-degree aerial panoramas?

One year ago: "Besides Brussels sprouts, I genuinely cannot think of something I hate and would try to avoid more than writing an essay or a paper."
Two years ago: "In other news, today's my half-birthday. That's right, I'm 14½ today."
