Another math post: play through.
Oh, for the love of...
It's okay, everyone, I got it. I feel unbelievably stupid, but I did get it.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
(If you live in London.)
Joggers are today being warned about violent crows in London parks after an attack left a man bloodied and needing hospital treatment.
Justin Keay was swooped on by two crows in what experts have called a severe case of "mobbing" - where two or more birds gang up on an assumed predator to keep them away from their young.
Now other runners are being told to stay well away from fledgling crows to avoid further attacks.
Mr Keay today told how he was running his usual route through Battersea Park when the birds swooped on him. The crows clawed his head with their talons and pecked at him furiously.
With blood gushing from his head, he had to fight for several minutes before they would stop attack - reminiscent of the Alfred Hitchcock film The Birds.

OK, they must be making this up:
Taking a ride on the sheep urine express
A British bus company believes it may have a secret weapon to cut pollution emissions -- sheep urine in the engine.
The Stagecoach company has fitted a bus in Winchester with a tank of sheep urine. The waste is sprayed into exhaust fumes to reduce emissions of harmful nitrous oxides, The Guardian reported Friday.

OKay, we came up with x=1/(1+sqrt(2)=sqrt(2)-1.
Trying A) x = [-2 +/- sqrt (4-4*1*-1)]/2 = -1 +/- sqrt(8)/2 = -1 + sqrt(2), so A works.
Not a pretty question.

I am enchanted by the math, but I do not know from whence it came.

so, I am at work, not doing work and no one else is really here and so it is quiet and peaceful and whatnot. That is nice. Natter is put put putting, though, yes? are people working? or not at work? or too bored to post?

I'm at work, not working, but was all caught up in doing math. And now I'm going home.

I'm sulking because no one cares about the sheep urine bus.
Kidding.
I'm the only one here now. So no one will know if I go home early.
I have concocted a clever plan which relies upon this fact....
