Moving at the Speed of Lee

Well, I think I read too much into the "situation" with a certain professor. He was all smiles today - I think it's just an issue with language barriers, and I was being a little over-sensitive. Oh well.

Vector Calc is cooking along, what with the Integral Calculus for Multiple Variables. The explanation of the Fozzybear Flop (or something like that) was kind of interesting - mainly because it involved the Olympics, Dr. Kuperschmidt, and a girl. We also proved the equation of the surface of a sphere with some horrible notation - r, R, r_hat, and some other letters. It made sense, but only if you didn't try to understand it.

I really like having the fridge and microwave in the office. And yes, we have plates now. There's no need to worry about me accidentally ingesting a carbon fiber (there's a higher likelihood that I'd kill a cell phone or a keyboard with a fiber though). The binder is really much worse off, but it wasn't mine to begin with - so no loss there.

Inviscid was pretty neat today. We fiddled around with some special cases of fluid flow, applied Euler's equation, and got the Bernoulli equation. I love that Bernoulli guy - he's one of the few dead mathematicians that aren't on my "list." Its such a handy, versatile equation. Go Bernoulli.

Smallville was really good tonight. They've brought in Green Arrow (only comic book guys are going to know who he is), but this season is starting to be actually worth watching for the story lines, and not just because its Superman.

BSG tomorrow. Oh, and class I guess.

P.S. I think I officially have a Peanut Gallery in the "comment" section. Wonderful.
