I buy soda on a biweekly to triweekly rate as I consume roughly 1 bottle of diet drink every 1.25 days. I don’t bring all the bottles in at once and leave the rest in my car. In the Cherokee this was fine as I could easily stand them upright and they’d be fine as I gradually brought them in, but with the open bed of the GMC Sierra that’s become a bit more of a nuisance:
Frank:Â Take the God-damn soda out of the GMC.
Me:Â Why?
Frank: I borrowed the Sierra to pick up a replacement fender and every time I made a stop is sounded like a half-dozen ‘tards are rollerblades attacked to the bumper were slamming their heads into the tail-gate.
That’s exactly what I thought of that noise too……

Dr. Gupta: You do not have to keep your hand raised, just raise it briefly and I’ll call on you.
Me: I usually do, but sometimes you miss.
Dr. Gupta: No I don’t, that’s why I don’t ask you to keep your hand-raised.
Me: But you’ve missed me a few times.
Dr. Gupta: I don’t miss anyone.
That’s not circular, at all.
One of the outlets in the Totem kitchen doesn’t work. I tried using my skillet on it to no avail and realized that the old microwave was thrown out because it didn’t work, probably because no one checked the outlet as everyone just wanted to throw out the damn thing. Someone mentioned that we should check the breaker, I strongly opposed this. Now anytime I want to shitcan something, I can plug it into that outlet, show it doesn’t work and buy a new one. Now, how to plug the ecology lodge into that outlet…
I was cooking for the campmaster corps this weekend and some say I use too much butter. I wager this is impossible but an incident highlighted this. When I make grilled cheese I dip the outside of the sandwich in warm butter before toasting to give the sandwich, well a buttery taste. I was walking into the dining room of totem with a 7 or so butter/cheese sandwiches and as I leaned to put the plate on the table, the whole sandwich massed slipped off the plate and moved as one onto the table. There was enough extra butter to act as both a lubricant and a glue to hold the sandwiches together for what I assume was a harrowing sandwich trip. The buttery excess less was far from over, as I pushed the sandwiches back on the plate to serve a butter imprint/butter smear was left on the table where the sandwiches hit. Needless to say, the sandwiches were good.
Kook at Temple’s Main Concourse: Worshipping anything but God directly is idolotry and a sin?
Me: Wouldn’t worshipping God directly be impossible, as we’re incapable of understanding infinity?
Kook at Temple’s Main Concourse: You can still worship God without idolotry.
Me: But you’re saying it’s a sin to worship the idea of God or at least our best understanding of the dude. Look at Paul’s letter to the Tholians, he quotes Jesus saying “alone let he who knows my father cast praise upon him” doesn’t that imply that we can worship things besides God in his infinity?
Kook at Temple’s Main Concourse: *defeated smirk laugh* Despite the fact that I’m going to hell for inventing a book of the Bible and then making up a quote about it, I got a sheeping smirk laugh! I live off of those things, if I can get another one from him if he returns Monday, I’ll have enough secret power to be a vigilante contrarian well into 2008.
I volunteered to provide program for the next Playwicki Round Table and asked for a few items from the crowd, namely wine corks, 1000ml glass jars, lead sinkers and some fine wire. Everyone looked at me funny until I indicated that nothing would be lit on fire, blown up or directly exposed to liquid nitrogen, then I got some takers.
Dr. Muparthi: We’ve covered the asset and liability portions of the cash flow equation, are there any questions before we continue?
Me: WHAT ABOUT EQUITY! *fist pump* For people who weren’t at the 2007 session of Summer Camp at Ockanickon
My Finance class doesn’t exactly consist of numerical geniuses, but I nonetheless assumed a certain degree of ability from the class and teacher.
Student: I didn’t get number three, they didn’t provide the interest to calculate the times interest earned ratio.
Dr. Muparthi: How are you supposed to calculate the times interest earned ratio without the interest?
Me: Well, the problem provides the EBIT from which you can calculate the interest by setting it as a variable and working backwards from shareholder dividends and the number of shares.
Dr. Muparthi: Not all of us have taken Calculus 3, Mr. Robinson.
Apparently Calculus 3 is Indian for 7th grade algebra.

I have no idea what’s happening in my stat class. I kicks me in the face every Tuesday and Thursday for 1.25 hours. Example from today:
Instructor: Mr. Robinson, how did you determine the sum of series of the error?
Me:Â Well, I began by calculating the individual series errors and then I… guess I did it wrong by the way you’re staring at me like I have three heads.
