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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
What formula (of the form ax*x + bx + c = 0) do you use to find x?
If the side of the cube is 1, then it's
0 = (1 + sqrt(2)) x - 1

Octagon. Okay. Well, that's 8 isosceles triangles with a 45 - 67.5 -67.5 angles and a side of length x opposite the 45. Such a triangle will have a height of x/(2tan(pi/8)) and area x^2/(4tan(pi/8)), so the octagon would be of area 2(x^2)/tan(pi/8), hmm. I can't remember how to calculate tan(theta/2). Blech.

You know what? Repetitions of "sqrt" in conversational prose may lead one to believe that squirting is a math function. Like, I did figure it out eventually, but, not at first.
Hello, all. I am in the sunny (when not stormy) southland, planning quesadillas for supper, and my Red Sox are in the sunny (I presume) Wrigley Field, having their asses handed to them. What is a girl to do? I mean, besides eat quesadillas and hope the Yankees and Orioles were similarly gifted in the ass dept.?

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

Show-off. -t, what my brain tells me when I look at your post is "Tant pis means what a pity." That's all I got.
