Seany, speaking of your roommate - that thing he said with the rule in baseball about having to get the runner at first out before you could get another runner out?
TOTAL bullshit.
Nobody can tell Marmaduke what to do. That's my kind of dog.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
"Centrifugal" as it turns out is one of those big science lies like "brontosaurus."
Not quite. They're two separate (but complementary) forces -- centripetal ("seeking the center") keeps you in orbit, and centrifugal ("running away from the center like Perkins from the sock-smellingest swiss cheese") keeps you from flying straight into the sun. You need both, in balance with each other.
(eta: Teppy's right about the one in question)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
David's right. Centrifugal is a useful concept, but as a force, it's fictitious.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Maybe I won't be the only one studying this summer...
I may have to ask you a law school question or two. You might have said this already, but where are you talking the bar?
Okay, I really liked it better when you were looking in Massachusetts, Wolfram, but that said, I think your idea sounds wise. If you're not otherwise planning to relocate to Florida, it would be ridiculous to shell out that fee.
Don't worry Cindy, MA is still in the running. So is practically any state, although as you know, because of my religious beliefs I'd have to live within walking distance of an Orthodox synagogue. Which makes some states, i.e. the Dakotas, a long shot.
And thanks for the advice, Beej. I can't tell if the partner was just ignorant of the registration cost, or really being an asshat. Either way, I'm determined now not to pay it (not that I have that kind of disposable income to toss around anyway.)
And thirding the TMBG approach for Sean. What an asshole.

I just misspelled, dang it. Centripetal sucks you in, centrifugal flings you outward.

"fucking Tucson" made me smile, because I used to, there, at one time. Not quite "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" but hey... Sean, ew.
