Sorry to hear that Patrick. Here in Philly, we've just got a bit of rain.

Meh. It's New England. Three inches in late March is par for the course. I'm just a bit sick of it is all. Now off to scrape the car..

~Looks out window at beautiful 80 degree weather.~

Have fun with that. ;)

I hope the snow melts soon. Canadians are pretty stoic about this, but I'm starting to see expressions on peoples' faces. Expressions that say, "If I burn the city to the ground, the snow will melt. Muahahahaha!"

Back in his day, he was probably even wackier than Pee-Wee's chair.

He still believes the perfect formula for anything is Vikings, Aliens, and Nazis.

Hmm, at the school I am looking at, even the TAs have offices (3 to 4 sharing an office, that is, but many of those TAs are music performance grad students and are never actually there). You sould write a letter.

The psychology chair and I ate our sandwiches outside yesterday in the cafe area. Then we took a walk around the campus lake/pond as the sun beat down on us. Getting too hot, we stopped in the Living Learning Garden, where we were over-shaded by trees and surrounded by blooming fauna, but we could still see the sun shining off the water as the breeze and the shade did its work.

:-P

That sounds really nice.

It's a Statist piece of crap in a state that has fallen BEHIND Mississippi in education. Write a letter? I'd be more likely to organize my own version of the brown-shirts.

But he's forgetting the most important ingredients, nekkid gypsy girls and belly dancing.


Believe me, he never forgets girls. His g/f is almost 40 years younger than he. And he provides commentary on both students and faculty females as we munch away.

I presume that the Vikings would actually be way over 50% Valkyries.

Synesthesia is basically any sense which does not normally respond to certain stimuli responding in place of the appropriate sense.

Yes, and it is very disorienting. For instance, when I get migraines I see sound. That's usually the curl up in a dark quiet room until this stops point.

I have a small child making an even greater mess of my already messy apartment. In other words, I got conscripted into babysitting.

So, you're going to be blowing it on Dwarvenforge products under the guise of visual terrain leads to greater camaraderie and social interaction when used in a role playing environment? Research indeed! :P

So I guess we now know the address your mind lives in is 6969 Gutter Street. :)

Currently the Canadian dollar is 1.03 of the US dollar so it would be $82400 US if I had it in a lump sum right now :P

Just teasing :) That's awesome, Jeremy.

Maybe there's a bit of envy - humanities grad students get a bowl full of crumbs for a stipend. You should have been there that time some Comparative Lit grad student said, "Please sir, I want some more..." It was an awful sight.
