Thats me. I jumped twice in the last few days. First, I got an email from the potential date earlier this morning. Apparently her PC broke down and being an arts major she didnt have a spare box lying around. I dont understand how people can survive with just one desktop. I need atleast 2 [...]
I met this wonderful lady a while, and we hit it off. We exchanged like 6 emails each day for 4-5 days, and then went out for drinks. It went well too. Then she had to go out of town of for a few days. When she came back, I asked her out to dinner [...]
You Are 55% Normal
(Somewhat Normal)
While some of your behavior is quite normal…
Other things you do are downright strange
You’ve got a little of your freak going on

The inevitable has happened. Someone I know has found this damn blog. The question is do they know its mine? I am going to intensively track activity on all my web presences over the next few days to answer that question. I know this person pretty well, so I think I can reason with him/her/it [...]

There is an article in the latest issue of IEEE Potentials that discusses how to approach research. I think the article was titled “Balanced Research”. Even though it is in a tech journal, the article would equally apply to all fields. I wish this article had been written a few years ago when I was [...]
QoH got his tenure. I have dreaded this day for a long time now. He had applied last year but was turned down since he hadnt graduated enough students and his publication list was pretty slim. Then he became buddies with a heavy weight prof in the department and made him his mentor. The other [...]
