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.
1) I have a project I already did a powerpoint on. Now I have to do an "executive summary" to hand in. It should be pretty much the powerpoint, made into sentences, right?
yes, but shorter.
2) I just realized I slightly misinterpreted some of my data, but the prof won't know. Can I just stick with the misinterpretation, or is that Just Wrong?
well, if the assignment is to summarize the powerpoint, then summarize with the misinterpreted data. add a footnote if you feel better.
just my .02
Danke, Vortex. I'll make sure the people who would actually use the data know the truth, but not sweat changing it for the prof.

I can't remember the last time I actually have been able to keep up in here. How's things? And stuff?
I am vague in my officiousness.
Oh, did I mention the freaky dream I had last night about growing up in decrepit tract housing with a little brother and sister and the actress who played Apollonia on Carnivàle as our mom? There were all sorts of weird guilt-ridden family dynamics going on with more distant relatives (who didn't correspond to any actual relatives) while waiting at a hospital. And rhinoceroses in the back yard.
and the actress who played Apollonia on Carnivàle as our mom?
To me she'll always be the waitress who wanted to go to France in Pee Wee's Big Adventure.
That is a cool dream!
Damn. I'm exhausted. So much for chit chat. I think I need a nap. Also an aspirin. Ow.
Hope everyone's doing well...
For all fans of England, esp. London, a very nifty website I just discovered.
Derelict London
Some of it's not very picturesque (rotting buildings and dead cars on the banks of the Thames), but the cemetery pictures make great mental images.
connie, that link is awesome. It brings up fond memories of some unknown Englishman shouting, "MIND YOUR BACK!" at us in Brixton before proceding to just barely miss vomiting on Christopher.
That and some Jamaican guy trying to sell my friend some pot on the bridge in Camden.
It's making me want to write stories set in those decrepit places. Oh, look, I have a new series set in London . . .
NO. I won't, and you can't make me. ::hugs TiVo, rocks back and forth crooning tunelessly::
JZ, I SO mispoke. If you haven't seen them already, you should definitely NOT watch these ads. But if you had seen them, you would know the fear.
