Random Trick (and some ranting about Mac Vs. PC)
Type = rand (200, 99) into Microsoft Word exactly as it appears here. Press enter and a look for a result. Micorosoft has been asked about this and has produced no solid reason as to why this will happen. Sorry for being vague but you should see for yourself what happens. I think its cool, but then again I am a nerd. Though so are you if you are reading this. This also might work if you type = rand ( ). They both work on my computer but the first one bring up 235 pages while the second bring up only a paragraph.
By the way, Mac sucks! User-friendly interface is a load of crap. PCs are just as “user-friendly” and are much better for most serious things. Macs are good when it comes to playing around on the computer. I wish my computer had photobooth and garageband but still, I’m fairly positive that it is possible to get similar programs on a PC. PC is a much better all-around computer and Windows has the best programs for office work. Mac knows it too. Why do you think that Apple has begun to let people put programs such as Word, Office, and Powerpoint on their computers? AppleWorks doesn’t compare to those programs would be an acceptable answer.
Anyway leave a comment. I’d like to take a poll on Mac Vs. PC

My First Official Post: Hello, World HTML
My last post wasn’t technically a post, more or less an “edit of my page.” So, after much thought put into what I should talk about, here it is, my first official post. I will show everyone here the basics of writing in HTML. To view this locally on your computer, save it as .html or .htm. ENJOY!
You need the following in almost all HTML documents.
<html>
<body>
</body>
</html>
In between the body tags, type <p> Hello, World </p>. Hello World is the first program written in any language, and my next post will be on doing Hello World in PerL. So, test this out and good luck. Any questions, leave them below.

A List of Things to Do When Your Bored (if you are a nerd)
If a nerd ever gets bored, which is a rare event, considering they are always wrapped up in research or something, these are the best things a nerd can do!
1. Get on the computer and immerse yourself in a random game or topic
2. Monty Python – the best movies EVER if you are a nerd (for some reason most people don’t find it funny but with my nerd friends its the most hilarious thing)
3. Be way to specific about something
4. Play World of Warcraft. Nothing like a level 80 character!
5. Read the dictionary.
We here at Nerds Rule! personally do these activities when we are bored! Try them out!
WHATEVER YOU DO, IT CANNOT BE A SOCIAL ACTIVITY!!!
Locker Stuffing
Have you ever gotten stuffed into a locker? I know it is pesky. But I have com up with a simple plan that can help you survive in a locker for five days. The first thing is get a subscription to Weight Watchers. This way you can eat while in the locker and also lose weight. This can prevent the locker from getting cramped. Also install movable locker shelves so you can have maximum head room! Finally, all you have to do is know how to scream. I know my plan is for five days, but the faster you are out the sooner you can complete your calculus homework!
