DONE!

Ahha! At long last. Finally, heaven be praise, it' over. Just finished the Circuits final, like getting beaten with a stick, but it's done. Time to go home and restart real life.

Meanwhile, I gotta get a suit made out of this stuff.

The Brits are crazier than anyone knew. Now they're trying to violate Conservation of Energy by generating "free" power. Perhaps this idea will save a couple bucks in power transmission losses, but ultimately it simply shifts the power generation from the municipality to the motorists.

It's always interesting to see spin, and we have plenty of in America; however, this week, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman uttered a real award-winner. Now it appears that Ahmadinejad's statement to the effect that the Holocaust never happened was "academic" statement.

In closing, I heard the best quote I've heard in a long time tonight. The question posed is: "As a christian young lady, how 'far can I go' with a boyfriend/potential mate?" The answer given was: "You can do with your boyfriend anything that you feel comfortable doing infront of you father." Now THAT's good stuff.

Almost Done!

I'm never certain whether finals week is harder than a regular school week or easier. On the one hand, there are the obvious tests, and the long hours studying; on the other hand, everything has a nice sense of finality about it. I won't have to learn any new information for an entire month, and I won't get any more REDO's from JB. Better yet, I can walk in to each test knowing that I've either got it in the bag or not, and they'll be no more fooling and "doing better next time."

In other news:

Something strange happened in Washington today. The Senate was suddenly possessed of the visceral fortitude to reject (CNN link warning; sorry) an attempt to renew the patriot act. I wonder why.

Engineering: solving real world problems often created by other engineers. What more could you want?

We certainly have come a long way in the past 62 years. I can't even see the keyboard on that thing.
