I envy all of you who only get upset about the heat when they have to travel to and from their car. I work outside in it all day.

Be glad you dont work in seattle. It is pouring down rain day and night, and I bet there is gonna be a flood any day now.

I'm studying for Trig right now. By the way, does anyone no what inverse sec(sec(1.7)) is?

Wouldn't it just be 1.7? Inverse y(y(x)) is just x for trig functions, right?

And now, for the most important posting of our time...

 

Are you a fan of Battlestar Galactica, and The Office? Yes? Good.

 

Both? Better.

 

Neither? Well... stop reading I guess.

 

I found these two hilarious youtube videos, of the openings of Battlestar Galactica and The Office, remixed with eachothers themes. The Office video is particularly hilarious, when they get the the episode specific scenes in that tribal little chant.

 

The Office opening, BSG Style: {look for it on Youtube}

It's sad when someone with a doctorate can't preform a simple operation like selecting between two different printers.

I take it you are talking about engineers.

 

Believe me, I have worked with several who were smart enough to work for NASA (back when NASA knew what it was doing) but couldn't tie their own shoes. Brilliant and creative people, but once you got them out of their very narrow specialties they were utterly useless.

I've always disliked the term Human Resources.

Damn skippy. I'm not a lump of coal or barrel of oil. I'm a person, and should fall under "Personnel"

While trying to think of a snarky response to this I just thought of a really REALLY terrible joke which I am not going to tell here for the sake of everyone's sanity.

there is nothing worse than an insensitive jerk. unless that jerk is you, then you just have to explain yourself. right...?

 

i met a guy today, that was quite insensitive, but then again, i can be pretty bad myself. does the fact that there is no personal link make it ok for me to not care about something, while a personal connection should obligate someone else to care?

 

oh well.

Don't worry. The majority of people are mouth breathers anyway, and it's easier to be insensitive. It really annoys me when people feel sad about stupid people getting themselves killed, like that kid in Georgia who got decapitated on a roller coaster for trying to get his hat.

 

It's the ultimate hipocracy. People want to feel bad for people who are little more then wastes of resources...vesus the thousands of children that will starve to death.

 

Today.

It just shows how totally messed up humanity is. Which is why the minute I turn 18 I am heading out for tanzania to help children there (kinda like my cousin did). In the meantime I am a adolescent trying to help other adolescents and children in the biggest way I can. Oh and nature. Don't forget how much animals and nature make it possible for hu-maans to live. Which really bugs me how unappreciative hu-maans are. I mean all of that stuff adults tell you when you are small about being nice and sharing, just makes me think "Oh my freaking god. Do you want to be the pot or the kettle today?" I want to live on Pluto. Yeah Pluto. Sadly I would probably die the minute I set foot on it but hey, one can dream.

I just got back from The Dark Knight. It isn't as good as Batman Begins, but it is still pretty solid. Definitely worth the 8 or 9 bucks.

 

Before you enter the theater, make sure you take a wee-wee and don't get the jumbo soda. The movie is over 2 and a half hours long not counting previews.

Honestly I thought the movie went on a little too long and was structured oddly -- there were about five points where it felt like we'd hit the climax and the movie was over...and then it kept going...

 

Great acting/writing/cinematography, though, and Heath Ledger was, as advertised, amazing. So it was worth the money I think.

I just read an internet article (really wish I hadn't now) on the Comcast site involving pedicures: Apparently, there is a new rage ongoing in the DC area. Pedicure customers who frequent this one spa are paying to stick their feet in water, so these really small Carp fishies can nibble away the dead skin of the feet for a natural pedicure.

 

So let me get this straight, I get to pay money to stick my feet in the water, and then just sit there as qausi-flesh eating Pirahna type fish nibble on my feet? Right.

 

I think I will pass. Indeed. ;-)
