[edit] Who am I?

I got into Wikipedia about a year ago. I haven't had the time to do much though, but I'll try to help out. Heh, I'm currently armed with a school textbook to contribute with. The only problem is that when I have time during the summer, I don't have a textbook, and when I don't have time during the school year, I do have this textbook. So, I guess I'll try to do my other stuff fast to get time to do things on Wikipedia. Then again, I am a slowpoke. It took me like ten years to set up a simple userpage like this. I think it is quite flashy though :). I'm still experimenting with userpages, so expect to see some improvements in the near future. (Or should I say near century. If that made sense... And I highly doubt anyone will ever read this. Am I wasting my time by trying to make a good userpage that looks good in my opinion? Why am I asking myself these peculiar questions? If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? I think I'm getting carried away.)

Anyway.. Well, I'm pretty into computers and rubik's cubes. I really think that Windows Vista is quite amazing but still somewhat unnecessary and confusing. Many will disagree, but the simple Windows XP is the way to go. Well, what do I know? I'm just some random person on Wikipedia that has limited knowledge of the computer world.

And, about that rubik's cube part. Currently I can solve a rubik's cube in about two minutes. In my humble opinion, that's pretty damn slow. I'm learning the Lars Petrus method which I hope will get me faster. My goal is to solve it fast enough so that someone watching will not get bored. (Let's say you can solve it in 20 minutes... Well, a spectator will be bored to death in those 20 minutes if he or she has nothing to do, right?) Ah well, if you really wanna know how to solve it fast, I suggest you search something like "How to solve the rubik's cube" in Google. Without the quotes of course.

I should make my boxes blue, right?

[edit] Paradoxes

Paradoxes are just brilliant. They simply are amazing. Many people don't really like to read, but reading the paradoxes are just a marvelous way to spend your time. I can't really explain it, so check it out yourself. See some paradoxes. However, before you wander off, let me give you the definition of a paradox, so you know what link you are actually clicking on. Then again, I'm not evil enough to make you click a bad link, huh?

A paradox is an apparently true statement or group of statements that leads to a contradiction or a situation which defies intuition. Typically, either the statements in question do not really imply the contradiction, the puzzling result is not really a contradiction, or the premises themselves are not all really true or cannot all be true together. The word paradox is often used interchangeably and wrongly with contradiction; but whereas a contradiction asserts its own opposite, many paradoxes do allow for resolution of some kind.

In simple man terms, they're just things that are baffling. Yes? Actually, I have no clue what the definition means, but who cares? Without further ado, here is the link to the purpose of life. (Well actually no, it is not the purpose of life, but I hope you realized that already.)
