I couldn't think of a good title for this entry. I don't have a specific aim, so this could go on for quite awhile.
First, the interested reader should check out some info on the incompleteness theorem. It is pretty rad. Lately I've been pretty into stuff on the history of math. The great thing about the history of math is that I don't have to do anything. I don't have to sit there and try to work out this really difficult problem; rather, I can just sit and watch documentaries on other people going crazy while trying to solve really difficult problems.
I did have a triumph today. I passed the SAS base certification exam. The pass rate on this exam isn't good. I've contributed to both possible outcomes. I failed this same exam in November. Just call me the little engine that could.
If anyone is reading this, please tell me if there is a way for me to upload files to this thing. I don't really care to put pictures up or anything. I just want to put some files on here.
Oh yeah, I should get back to some of the stuff that happened today. After the exam, I was pretty pumped. I decided I deserved a little reward, so I stopped at Wal-Mart and got the biggest box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch I could find. And why shouldn't I? I'm worth it.
To preface my next part, I should point out that I have a pretty quiet roommate. We'll call his name Jim to protect his identity. He's an extremely nice guy. He just doesn't like to talk much. I can't think of a time when he's ever greeted me as I entered the apartment. When I got home tonight, I saw my roommate in the kitchen and said, "Jim, in case you were wondering, I am in an excellent mood." I half expected him to ask, "Oh, what happened? Why are you in such a good mood?" Against all odds, Jim replied, "Okay." By the time I left the apartment, I still had no idea why I expected anything else.

Regarding the Cinnamon Toast Crunch (and I guess it applies to "J"im too):
ReplyDeleteYou are a lion, take what's yours.
Keep expecting it, and maybe at some point he will answer. That is hilarious though. Good for you on passing, Little Engine That Could! I did the same thing with the double statistic contribution on the Idaho Cosmetology Board Exam.
