We cooked a bunch of our food for the week in advance by grilling it outside. It is so awesome. Not only do we have to cook less, but every bite is a little charcoal scented reminder of a nice little weekend with my sweety.

The best strategy is to go straight from the first to the second, and skip all the boring stuff in between.

I had to drop off of that thread because it was taking up too much of my time.

Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Because it can produce a few notes, tho they are very flat; and it is nevar put with the wrong end in front!
-Carroll
(Note: there's a pun in there and it ain't Car Roll...I didn't get it...neither did the proof-reader)
Bah Puzzling master Sam Loyd beat Carroll
Because Poe wrote on both;
Because the notes for which they are noted are not noted for being musical notes.;

Someone, who reminds me very much of Richard Feynman, has been coming into my bar, for the last 6 months.

He's a homeless man, with a large, beautiful, and very polite dog, named Spike.

Much earlier this year, an engineering major in my calculus class asked, rather loudly, "Why the FU(nctor) is Taylor's Theorem important to anyone?!"

I remember the moment very distinctly. I wanted very much for my professor to say the following four words and then refuse to teach the imbeciles of the class:
[PLAIN]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v161/andyspics/nosoup.gif[/CENTER]

Instead, he simply asked for an apology before he continued teaching. I was disappointed.​

I had a dog named after Vidocq.

Let me guess...a bloodhound?

In Polish Vidocq is pronounced almost exactly as "widok" - which means "a view".

Yesterday morning I was at the airport, headed for England. Then I realized I didn't have my passport. Then I looked around for a clock, trying to figure out if I had enough time to race home and back. There were two sheets of paper on the wall, each with different times. I asked which sheet of paper had the correct time. People looked at me like I was crazy. So I grabbed someone's wrist, and looked at the time on her watch. I had just enough time. But then, when I got to the parking lot, I'd forgotten where I'd parked. Then, someone I hadn't seen in 30 years said; "Hey! That was a great parking job you did!". I screamed back; "Where did I park!?". She said; "Over there, on the line". She pointed to a sea of cars hidden by trees. So I went over and found my black pickup truck, and went to put my backpack in the red hatchback. Then I realized I didn't have much money on me and I might have forgotten to make my credit card payment so I might be in England penniless! And then, I couldn't figure out why I was going to England!

Then I woke up.

I used to have a worm bin for vermicomposting. Once I was in my back yard tending my square foot garden, and there were a bunch of worms in there making racist comments. They were spouting every epithet in the book. I got so mad and screamed at them, "you racist BLEEP BLEEP. You'll never evolve! You'll always be a BLEEP BLEEP worm!"

Then I woke up.

But I told them!

Correction. He is not homeless.

I just mentioned this post to him, and he mentioned someone named Ginsparg. I'd never heard of anyone named Ginsparg, so I asked if he'd said Ginsberg. He said no.

I think Ginsparg might be an interesting character to look into tomorrow.

I have tomorrow off.

I think putting myself through a math degree was a very masochistic thing to do at my age. Or is that mathocistic.

Answer to question #1:
I just copied and pasted. hmmmm... I think that's pretty much how my entire life has been. hmmmm... Is creativity just pasting a bunch of miscellaneous life copies, with some photoshop at the end?​

Answer to question #2:
24 means you multiply 2 times itself 4 times. So that's 2x2x2x2, which equals 16.

If you multiply 11 by 16, you get 176.

And that's what 24 x 11 is: 176​
