Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Oh. Perhaps you can set up another time to meet with her? You could bring a picture from tomorrow's paper explaining why you weren't there. Anyway, it sounds big enough to make the paper, but I'm a bumpkin, so maybe not.

Or, what I should have said instead of giving advice that you already know, is I'm sorry you're missing back to school night, Hec.

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

The president on your telly is about to explode!

Sorry, Trudes. I walked away for a bit.

Um, no. I'm on a reinstalled system after my hard drive seized up. I don't have a message program installed yet. Can you send me an email?

Anyone around remember their complex numbers?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

A bit. This isn't about Egyptian methods of calculating them, is it?

ALL numbers are complex to me.

No! This is about polar forms, or how to express 3-4i as |z|(cos theta + i sin theta). I'm okay with the z (it's 5), but I'm a little unsure about theta. From my notes, apparently it's inverse tangent(-4/3), but then I should check to make sure the angle measurement I come up with is in the right quadrant, and that's where I get a little uncertain.
