You know what's annoying? Being a physics major 10 years out and realizing how much you've forgotten. A friend asked me her son's bonus question. My first reaction was der. Except then I started thinking and all the margins of knowlege I have made me question the der and now I just feel stupid and like my brain is leaking out my ears. Depressing.

Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Anybody else watching The OC? Dr. Roberts is going to Seattle Grace? Seriously?
Really? I wish that he would show up on GA. That would rock.
I was bitching about the early sunset earlier, but apparently I have forgotten Winter up north. My sunset today was 5:31pm, NYC was 4:39pm. I'm thinking Rio might be a good plan. Their sunset was 7:14pm.
I could live here in the summer and Rio in the winter. It could work.
I swear, I need a gig that requires I spend the winter months closer to the equator. I'm a seriously unhappy camper for the next 5 months. People think I might be kidding about not moving any further north. I'm not.
LW's House: I was talking to a friend today who had a chronic pain condition and takes a lot of narcotics for it. She didn't buy House being arrested for possessing only 600 pills. She says at 8 pills a day, that's less than 3 months worth, which is usually what she get per script. She thought him being arrested for 1800 was more plausible. But accuracy and science isn't really the reason to we watch it, I guess.
Police dress up as Batman and Robin to catch drugs suspect
Two policemen dressed as Batman and Robin captured a suspected drugs offender - in a bizarre sting operation.
The Dynamic Duo - Sgt Tony Smith and PC Mike Holman - pulled on the superhero outfits in a bid to unsettle the suspected baddies.
They pretended to be drunks looking for a fancy dress party and knocked on the door of the suspect's home.
Those inside refused to answer the door to the loud, comically dressed visitors - which was what the officers wanted.
Batman and Robin then went around the back of the property in Weymouth, Dorset, while seven uniformed officers went to the front door.
Those inside the house were PLEASED to see the policemen and complained to them about the fancy dress drunks. They then invited the officers in.
However, one of the men inside the house ran out of the back door on seeing the policeman - to where the superheroes were waiting for him.
Batman - Sgt Smith - gave chase, jumped over a fence and BIFF, POW, THWACK, arrested him.
PC Kevin Eames, said: "The people opened the door immediately and said that they had been alarmed by some drunken people in fancy dress in their garden.
"So the ruse was successful and we were let in."
...
"The Batman costume was quite comfortable and not too restricting. I still managed to jump over the fence.
"But it was difficult finding somewhere to put my CS spray. There was nowhere for the handcuffs, but then Batman does not need handcuffs."
PC Eames said: "The bad thing about the operation is that we had to endure hours of terrible puns from PC Holman."
sumi, that would be ridonkulous.
