I can see you are adapting to college quite nicely. :)

Yeah, just spent two hours getting Christmas lights from one window around a corner to another window on the 5th floor of my building

Wow, it takes a very high level of skill and, dare I say, Art, to make a string of lights seem so artlessly hung between two dorm room windows. I appreciate the organically sinuous line of the bulbs, as though questioning the notion of straight lines and curves.

Now that you have aquired a new life skill in college, you will do well in prison passing notes to other cells.

We did something similar in college. Only it involved rock climbing gear and some cheap brandy. That’s why there is now a sign on the Commons building “No Rappelling From This Buliding” on the outside.

@Kunlun I interpreted it to be a statement about the curved nature of space-time about a massive object.

That's great. The best thing I did so far was rafting down the river during a time of heavy rain. It was pretty crazy, white water rafting right in campus...

@Kunlun you don't understand. There is a corner. A corner. You know how hard it is to make lights go around a corner outside 5 floors up?

I do. At least I seem to remember that I do. :)

So how did you pull it off? I'm imagining a string with a weight and someone catching it on the other side.

Similar to that, but no where to catch it on other side. Stuck a stick out the window to catch it, then pulled it around the corner into the window

should have used a drone to carry the lights around the corner, or at least a run of string to drag the lights after the fact.

Aww... RA just made us take them down.....

Too bad. Control freaks. We had cool RA’s. Sorry. At least you have pics so it happened. Now the sign goes up. No lights!

I just posted a song in “what are you listening” in memory of your adventure tonight.

My RA is cool, but he said his boss told us to get rid of them. Oh well. They never busted is for rafting, so we are doing that again next time it rains hard.

College is pretty great. And I have not even drinken or anything. Was boring at first. Now it's pretty great.

@Kunlun, "... questioning the notion of straight lines and curves."

Come on, admit it... you are a secret agent from 6moons!

@spwath, at first, I didn't notice the all-important corner.
