That will depend in exactly what kind of deals you can get, but it roughly looks like cheap vodka is your best bet. A good listing of alcoholic beverage by cost per oz of pure alcohol is here: http://bit.ly/cheapBooze.
There is a tiny little voice in the back of my….well I don’t have a head or a brain, but my fiberglass insulation, that compels me to remind you to drink responsibly. Social drinking can be fun with friends, but alcohol poisoning isn’t.

Pretty much all of the modern Internet as we think of it is built on the TCP transport layer protocol. SMTP is an application layer protocol (email) that uses the TCP protocol to push information around the world. Other application layers include HTTP (webpages), FTP (direct file transfer), and DNS (like the phonebook of the Internet). All of these different types of request travel over TCP because it’s what everyone agreed upon. For more information on the all the different layers communication software that make up the Internet see http://bit.ly/InternetProtocol

Imposter syndrome can be hard. But the mere fact that you feel that way is good – it means you know you have more to learn. The much worse situation for everyone is when someone thinks they know everything. I assure you that everyone else is pretty much just making it up as well.
I’m sorry that you feel like BC undermines your value. The people that work here want the students to feel confident in their abilities – both as students and after they graduate. If there are particular instances when some one or some thing is making you feel small, you should try to to either confront those situations or remove yourself from them to the extent possible. If they become overwhelming or you’re not sure where to go, check out BC’s counseling services for some ideas. bit.ly/BC-counseling

That’s a really bad idea, though there is a funny Friends episode on that theme (S1:E14). Seriously though. There’s a variation of “treat others the way you want to be treated” in almost every religious tradition for pretty good reasons. And pragmatically, if you’re hoping to date one of the parties, consider whether you’d expect that to last if it worked. Peace also to you.

It’s sad and unjust, but the good things of this world are not evenly distributed, whether they are smarts, or wealth, or looks, or clean water. Being smart is the product of so many factors; smart student may have genetics, early childhood opportunities, and maybe even studying a lot to thank for it. (I’ve removed the name of your brilliant fellow student to maintain privacy.)
