The Thread.getState() method should allow the
JAVA programmer to determine the state of the
thread. The possible values should be:
(1) sleeping, (2) blocked waiting for I/O,
(3) running, (4) waiting.

If a thread.sleep() has been called and the
thread has not yet been awaken, then the
state should be "sleeping".

If a thread does a wait(Object), then the
state should be "waiting".

If the thread is in a "ready to run" queue,
then state should be set to "running".
