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

Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

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.

Oh brenda, you're killing me here. Lemon ice. Want.

Frozen custard (brenda knows the joys of Kopps, I'm sure!). There's a place down the street from my apartment that's supposed to have good custard, and I've been very good about avoiding it so far. I'm thinking I might cave in this weekend.

If the side of the cube is 1, then it's
0 = (1 + sqrt(2)) x - 1
