"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

(That last bit is mostly because, whenever I've complained about any sort of weird notation, someone in the department has been able to name a field where that's the conventional notation.)

Yeah, that's what I'm hedging against. But no, he seemed to be graphing only two variables... well. Actually, god only knows what they mean for him to be doing. But he drew a two-axis graph and then they did a close-up on him writing a y next to the horizontal line. Eh, it doesn't matter. Just weird, was all.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Susan:

Yeah, 1987 was my sophomore year of h.s., and I was the slave of peach shirts from Ups N Downs, the most slammin' boutique in the mall.

I look GHASTLY in peach, and I think the year of peach is when I started to defy trends that make me look bad.

Of course, I still bought the black sweater with the giant multicolored parrot on the back and paisleys on the front, AND a Swatch tshirt AND jeans with giant caggage roses on them.

But my junior year I discovered black, and my senior year slutty colored bras. Much better.

Thankfully, I have always, ALWAYS eschewed neon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The post office web site should tell you which is which.

It didn't say anything obvious. So I went to the largest one near me. Which has a really not obvious sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 listing the 13 SoCal post offices open past 7.

I thought about it for quite a while, and put my $32 in the mailbox anyway and came home.

We'll see.

Sadly, I was hardly the only one there, and not all of them noticed the sign.

If only I'd seen your post before I left, and maybe I'd be over hooking up your phone.

And you can't prove anything different.

I think you should be able to PayPal the IRS.

You are very right.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You should also be able to gamble on the amount you owe at the IRS website. And you should be able to get your refund in porn.

ION, I just saw Sarah Vowell give a reading. I now have a new secret celebrity girlfriend.

LOVE Sarah Vowell! I plan on using some of her essays in my putative classes next fall (please Employment Gods, knock on wood.)

What are you gonna be teaching, Erin?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

he labelled his horizontal axis y.

Is this bad?? I had no idea. I was watching and saw that, but it didn't stand out at me. Of course, I'm also the person who had to go to our CFO for help with some math this week.

tommyrot, you went to the Sarah Vowell reading? I thought about it, but I'm home doing homework. Blech. I love her.
