1. Last week I saw a guy jogging through campus wearing a pair of shorts, a sweater, and a hat with a propeller on top. I laughed aloud. I mean, who the hell wears shorts in Iowa in November?!
2. Funniest headline I’ve seen in the last 24 hours (via Fark):
Arrest warrant issued for Wacko Jacko. Officials on the lookout for a noseless white woman wearing a surgical mask, one glove
3. Funny excerpt from LoTR: The Two Towers: Breadbox Edition (found via Amanda):
LEGOLAS
We lost our friends. Have you seen them?EOMER
We probably killed them.GIMLI
But they look nothing like orcs.EOMER
Yeah, well. It was dark. Have some horses.
The entire thing is pretty hilarious, so check it out. :)
4. Maggie made me promise today that if I ever became a tech writer, I’d make things easy for girls who don’t understand computers to get. I suggested I could write Hello Kitty’s Guide to the Internet.
5. My English 413 professor knows a lot of interesting people. She shared an email with us today from a friend of hers as an example of the odd types of questions we can expect to receive in the workplace. Her friend? The President (Chief Justice? I don’t remember for sure) of the Supreme Court of Israel.

Erm… it was going to get its own post later. Yeah. That’s it. *G*

So, you thought it was funny that the guy was wearing shorts but you had NO reaction to the hat with the propeller on top? Geez…you’ve really got to re-examine your priorities… :)
And I’m pretty sure it was the Chief Justice. Can you even HAVE a president of a supreme court? Well, I guess I don’t really understand how things work in the Middle East…but still…skeptical. :)

How do girls who don’t understand computers differ from boys who don’t understand computers?

Amanda - I think she said President, which we mentally turned into Chief Justice. But there’s a President’s office in the court building, which is what got me wondering again.
Mris - I wasn’t sure on that one either. That’s why I suggested more pink. *g*

On guys and gals and omputers:
Most guys would never admit when they didn’t understand computers. And instructions wouldn’t help them - they generally refuse to read them.

Not a word about my b/day?
*sigh*

Even your mom gave me a happy b/day line… for shame, Rob, for shame.
