for the 5 people who read this site, i have fixed user logins. if you tried to create an account already, but it didn't work for whatever reason, you should select the "request new password" option.

you obviously don't need to create an account. if you do, you don't have to deal with the math captcha. that might be good for you if you're like kyle, who said that the math questions are too difficult, and that he had to keep hitting refresh until an easy one came up. silly kyle.

they don't taste right.

so i'm at vons, waiting in line at the register. i had to buy a bunch of stuff cuz it had been a while since i'd been to the store. anyway, the lines were really long, for some reason.. probably cuz there were only two cashiers. even the express checkout line was all the way back into the aisles. so i make sure to do everything optimally so as to facilitate the checkout process for everyone. cuz, y'know, i'm committed to the line. i don't want to be "that guy." i try to stand in line in a way that says, "i'm a part of this community. i'm going on the journey, with you, to pay for my shit." thanks dane cook.

anyway, so it's my turn to put my groceries onto the belt. i place them in a neat and orderly fashion, making considerations about space, and feng shui, and whatnot. i've got my vons club card and credit card ready. and then i notice this girl behind me, and i see that she's got one item, a dozen eggs. i think, huh, i guess the express checkout line is way too long. and i wonder if she checked those eggs, cuz they didn't have any good sets of a dozen eggs when i looked (i got an 18-count myself). but then i figured i just didn't look hard enough. whatever. so i grab the divider thing and place it next to my stuff so that she can put her eggs on the conveyor belt. the guy in front of me is finished with his transaction and it's finally my turn.. so i swipe the cards, sign the thing, say thanks to the bagger and the cashier, grab all my bags, and leave the store. success. and i'm halfway to my car when i think.. shit, why didn't i let that girl go before me? she just had the one item. i could've just said oh hey, do u want to go first? i couldn't believe that i had such a lapse in judgement for such a small thing. does that ever happen to u?? GAHHHH.

whenever i get water, i play with the fridge magnets. there's a bunch of business speak magnets, as well as skiing and skating magnets, for some reason. so i made this.

line integrals on wikipedia.

if you remember my post about ecp 1 final presentations, here is what i saw during the presentations:

the guy at the front of the room was setting up his presentation (an implementation of tic-tac-toe.. pretty sweet), and the guy in pink who is sitting there was the guy who did his presentation on brake lights.
