Favorite summer dessert: homemade vanilla ice cream--a family 4th of July specialty once upon a time.
beach or pool: To be honest, I don't frequent either one, but the beach gets the edge because it's fun all year 'round and you can hear the ocean.
worst family vacation: I don't recall any bad ones, but I can recall some bad FV moments, like the time I got carsick and threw up on my brother's pillow.
best family vacation: The time we drove up Hwy 1 all the way to Eureka and stayed in this cute cabin and went picking blackberries almost every day.

Poop! I waited too long to get my US OPen Tix, and can only get day Passes for the MOnday of Labor Day weekend and night passes the other days. Off to ebay and craigslist.

It's either lemon or cherry (although when I was a kid the Wassam's drugstore had all different flavors of delicious icey stuff they called water ice...my favorite flavor was Blue).
I've seen it more flavors than that--depends a bit on where you're buying it. I've always liked watermelon flavor.

Ah crap. Jack 102.7 was my new favorite radio station this week. Until I found out it's a franchise and all contrived.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
So you know how I said hexagon? Now pretend I said octagon.
...cause I'm just that dumb today.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Okay, regardless of how you figure the area of the octagon and thus x (which I think I actually had done okay), the question is this -- the regular octagon with sides of length x is created by cutting the corners off a square with sides of length one centimeter. What formula (of the form ax*x + bx + c = 0) do you use to find x?

Enjoy what you enjoy, Wolfram! Resist the pressure to shun the commercial!

Hey Gus.
Why are people suddenly talking in code? It's confuuusing.
I want a lemon ice now. Or chocolate. In a paper cup from the window of a pizza place. In short, I want to go back to being six, when this was a major part of my summer routine.
