you're telling me that cal = berkeley = UC = california = the golden bears = the team that pulled off the play (and shoulda been called down :disgust: and threw a forward lateral :disgust: ) = i already knew all that?!? 😀

you equation is correct.

UC Berkeley is the original University of California college. Waay before California started expanding it's colleges to other cities. Hence, the short nick name, Cal.

I told her what's going on and I asked her again if we've talked before and she says yes this time. I wonder how come when I asked her the first time we talked she said no. Oh well it's not really a big deal either way.

We talked on the phone for a couple hours again and we're both trying to get each other to visit the other. She's like yeah ok if I visit socal in the near future we'll go to disneyland together. I'll probably be the first to cave tho, I'm looking at flying up within the month.

Man, I'm really going out of my way to get to know this girl. I wonder if it'll stick this time, I was just thinking I seem to have a different girl every couple weeks. 🙁

hey, i see nothing wrong with having a diff girl every couple weeks, better than no girl

yes, Cal is short for UC Berkeley

uh huh right
Cal and Berkeley are one and the same. How UC Berkeley got shortened to Cal, I have no idea.

because putting "California" on a football helmet doesn't quite work.

I think it's because Berkeley was the first UC, so it was deserving of the name "Cal".
 
WhoTF cares WTF NorCal or UC or WhateverTF any of it means.

Give us the :camera:s.

Viet girls are hot.
 
When I read your topic, I thought someone was having a similar situation as myself...I've know this girl for a while now, but never really spoke to her...I had a party on Sunday (yeah, Sunday 🙂), and kinda talked to her then...since Sunday, she's spent the last two evenings at my place (doing nothing, mind you), and we've talked extensively, for over 10 hours in the last 2 days. It's really fun, regardless of whether or not I'm attracted to her. (which I am, but not like "all in"...so that sucks).

Good stuff, good luck with yours, hope you meet her soon.

it was 1982, stanford just scored and was up with just seconds remaining... the ball was kicked off, caught, and cal starts working, trying to keep the ball alive. ball got lateraled twice, and then the guy who has it is surrounded and on film you can clearly see that he is down, and then he laterals the ball and the refs don't whistle the play dead. so then the ballcarrier is running up the field and is about to get tackled so he throws a forward pass of about 4 yards, and the play still isn't whistled dead. stanford's band, having thought the game was over, comes out onto the field and the cal player runs it in dodging stanford band guys for the last couple of yards, and knocking one of them over. WORST officiated play EVAR!
Who do you think you are, John Elway?

yeah I'm pretty sure. 🙂

I would hope GB doesn't have the voice of a girl and have enough time to sit and phone/chat to me for ~2 hours every day.

you can get machines that can change your voice pretty easily...

lol, you're a bastard, I already talked to her on the phone.

Cal is the nickname for UC Berkeley.
If Cal is for UC Berkeley, then Cow must be for UC Davis 😀. Ahh shoot, I shouldn't mock Davis, one my best friends' goes there. I'm at UC San Diego right now. Loving it, havn't met the woman of my dreams yet, but I'm still young. I would say something nice to you, but Berkeley turned me down for admission so I'm mad at the system (although if I got in, I wouldn't have gone, hah). Too ghettooooooo.

I'm thinking about heading up the 13th, so I'll find out soon enough. She seems promising but of course it's too early to say what will happen. Maybe I'll take pics of us together or something but shrunk down to a size where no detail can be seen. 😀

If nothing else I'm gonna hang with some old friends also, I'm overdue for a visit.
Man, if she's a girl (like a real one, none of that aritificial surgery crap) then believe me when I say, no matter how small that pic, we will see something worth looking at. 😀
 
around the 13th will be Cal day on the UC berkeley campus, where HS'ers get to visit us 🙂 when you stop by, feel free to go to the AACF table where I will be. err... by any chance, do i know her?

Ed
