I was just thinking that he was starting a joke, a la gran, and at some point he'd get to some punchline involving wordplay on homosexuality...

EDIT: My naked body is a punchline on homosexuality...

That’s rather... bleak.

Ouch! I feel attacked! How dare you use me as an NPC!

Woooow... back to school night is really showing me why Impus Major is having a rough time of it! One the one hand, his English teacher is just awesome, and his math teacher really means well, but it's his first year and he just doesn't understand teenagers yet. But then there's the grossly-overqualified physics teacher who nearly put me to sleep in her 10-minute presentation (I know few people who can be THAT boring), and the Spanish teacher whose entire attitude seems to be, "Your kids should be fluent by now (Spanish 2) and translating all of the assignments for you. And of COURSE I'm grading them off on enyays (spelling?) and tildes! This is Spanish TWO!"

She even went so far as to give us the complete syllabus in Spanish, telling us, "Oh, your kids can translate that for you!"

Really? My second-year Spanish student is going to translate a syllabus. Hmmm...

And I'm typing this while the history teacher is trying to give the physics teacher a run for her money in an amazingly boring 10-minute ramble.

Thank goodness our awesome choir teacher is last! It'll help wake me up!

(Just to set expectations, his English teacher was just, "Here's who I am, here's what we're doing this semester, here are the major projects that are due and how you can check up on them, and here's how to contact me." And it was wonderful to have someone so refreshingly straightforward. And cheerful. Scary, scary cheerful...)

OK. Mind blown.

The choir teacher has had each kid singing at home. I've heard Impus Minor singing in his room.

Then she grabs Reaper and puts all 55 kids together, aligns the timings, etc.

And the result is just fricking incredible.

Post-production for the win!

Bunch of major a-holes dumped two kittens in my nieces garden. Kittens are doing ok, bit dehydrated.

If I ever go to jail for murder its because I see someone do something like this to an animal.

i don't know about translations, but in Spanish 2 you should know your ñ and your á fairly well.

My parents used to have a farm on half way down a dead end road and we used to call it Cat Dump Lane, because whenever a car drove down our road we knew we'd end up with a couple of more barn cats.

Impossible. I saw you here visiting Poland when that terrible murder happened!

When that bastard was killed by someone completely else and not you, by the way?

Fantasy NPC: Asyenka Leeshka. The last magistrate is the caretaker of the city's park with the dark secret.

A month ago my rep and I were informed I'd no longer be supporting her customer because of their impending conversion to the new ordering platform.

Two weeks ago that customer converted to our new platform.

Three days ago, one of the ordering locations transmitted an address change request which I forwarded to the proper folks who now handle this acct, CCing the rep and the customer, reminding them again that I no longer support this business.

10 minutes ago the Sr VP of EC Sales, the boss of my former rep, emailed the same request to me demanding where we are on this change since this is an urgent need.

What part of the now 5 different messages, in the past month, that I no longer handle this rep or her customer are folks not getting? It would be one thing if they were still on our old platform, I'd have this knocked out in 5 minutes, but in the vein of mining efficiencies that function on our new platform is not accessible to me. In other words, I literally cannot do what they need me to do.

What is a dark cultist druid? And does it provide a way around druids’ usual alignment restrictions?

Yes.

I might write it down one day fully.

If only her name was Leslie. Also, maybe all that Asyenka and her ancestors need is a new park. I hear there's an unused lot in the city, basically a giant pit behind the house of a local healer named Anne VonPerkins...

EDIT: It all starts with the photoelectric effect studied by Einstein that proved quantization of electrons (hence "quantum mechanics"). Once you show that there's a minimum allowable unit in the universe, everything else follows pretty quickly (and crazily). But every college kid repeats the experiment. I did it. Shiro's son is doing it now. One of those fundamental, "Change the universe" experiments that you can do in any college physics lab.
Interesting. I'll check it out.

So because I love visuals and I have nothing to do at work -- knock on wood -- I watched a vid of the Single-Slit Experiment, and then made google-drawings of it. Here and here.)

If I understand this right, many photons pass through a wide slit, in other words those photons' positional uncertainty is high. Which means their momentum (momental?) uncertainty is low. In other words, photons passing through a wide slit travel in more or less straight lines.

When the slit is narrowed, the photons' positional uncertainty shrinks way down, which forces their momental uncertainty way up. In other words, the few photons which make it through the slit scatter in a cone pattern. But because space itself is quantized, those few photons can't just blur into wider photons or split into more photons as they go, each photon has to probabilistically exist in more and more 'holes' as they go.

Do I have it right?

Nifty. I like this NPC a lot. But I’ve always liked the idea of dark things hiding in plain sight.

This is a joke, for the record. But when did you get the chance to play 1eD&D (or OD&D)?

My DM used to call it AD&D. I used to remember which actual version it was but I don't atm. I know their is like 3 D&D 1sts.

Zip....kathunk!

Started in 3rd grade with the blue box. My first DM used a mix of basic and 1E to run me through B2.

Went on to play mostly 1E T1, S2, G1-3 etc back with the monochromatic covers. Last real 1E campaign was dragonlance that died at Skullcap in college.

Hah! Yeah.

Mostly it was a joke because I'm pretty sure Vid is pretty young as far as most of us go, though I could be wrong.
