Still getting used to this. I am not very eloquent. Don't expect too much.
I will post some "top fifteen" lists.
I will rant on about stuff.
I will clog up your internets with junk.

Top Fifteen Fortunes (in no particular order that I will admit to):
01) Fifth Law of Applied Terror:
If you are given an open-book exam, you will forget your book.
Corollary:
If you are given a take-home exam, you will forget where you
live.
02) Teach children to be polite and courteous in the home, and, when they grow up,
they won't be able to edge a car onto a freeway.
03) I was lying in my bed one night, looking at the stars. And I was thinking, where the hell is my ceiling?
04) Eggnog is a traditional holiday drink invented by the English. Many people wonder where the word "eggnog" comes from. The first syllable comes from the English word "egg", meaning "egg". I don't know where the "nog" comes from.
To make eggnog, you'll need rum, whiskey, wine gin and, if they are in season, eggs...
05) Best friends aren't the people to bail you out of jail; they're the ones sitting next to you saying that was effing awesome!
06) Dance around naked with a rose between your teeth if you want, but do it like you mean it.
07) Psychiatrists say that one out of four people are mentally ill. Check three friends. If they're ok, you're it.
08) Rule 46, Oxford Union Society, London:
Any member introducing a dog into the Society's premises shall
be liable to a fine of one pound. Any animal leading a blind
person shall be deemed to be a cat.
09) Decisions of the judges will be final unless shouted down by a really overwhelming majority of the crowd present. Abusive and obscene language may not be used by contestants when addressing members of the judging panel, or, conversely, by members of the judging panel when addressing contestants (unless struck by a boomerang).
-- Mudgeeraba Creek Emu-Riding and Boomerang-Throwing Assoc.
10) Keep emotionally active. Cater to your favorite neurosis.
11) Lady Luck brings added income today. Lady friend takes it away tonight.
12) Your analyst has you mixed up with another patient. Don't believe a thing he tells you.
13) People are beginning to notice you. Try dressing before you leave the house.
14) If you need to know:
It's is not, it isn't ain't, and it's it's, not its, if you mean it
is. If you don't, it's its. Then too, it's hers. It isn't her's. It
isn't our's either. It's ours, and likewise yours and theirs.
-- Oxford University Press, Edpress News

Yes
I think that is the idea behind fortune.
Getting repeats? Old version?

About Me
I am currently sixteen years old, but I expect that will change, eventually - maybe. I started fencing about 4 years ago, with varying levels of competitiveness. I mostly fence for health reasons (stress, fitness, sanity; well, 2 of 3 isn't too bad.) The club where I fence is kinda limited on the schedule, so several of us get together on our own. I teach a little kids fencing class at the local community centre, but it is a small town, so it doesn't always make. I was infected with HIV in 2000, when I was about 7. I am living with it and have a descent life – or I should say most of the issues I have were pre-existing. I managed to control things with diet and exercise, but since about 2005, my immune system surrendered and I started my chemical regime. During the school year I live with my dad and in the summer I stay with my mom. Except this year - staying with Dad. They get along ok as long as they do not have to live together – in the same city. Alaska is kinda big, so they can manage to be in the same state. I like reading I like cycling I like music I like school, but not so much the people in it... myself included because I am evil, just so you know. Sometimes I have issues and whatnot going on in my life and whatnot and I will sometimes blog about it, but mostly I like making Top Fifteen lists. Just search for "Top Fifteen" and you can skip the malarkey. :edit:To day is my sixteenth birthday and I thought I would update this About Me part:/edit:
