Day 96

I may have been reading a little too much xkcd recently.

Day 94

Although the other students in my Managerial Economics class are undergraduate freshmen (and six years my junior), I realized today that we have equal knowledge of the underlying mathematics, and truly began to feel like one of their peers. That lasted for about ten minutes, until the teacher said the word "assymptote," and everybody laughed except for me.

Day 93

One of my teacher has a slight accent. This can be humorous for the rest of us.

Teacher: "Some goods are cheap; others are being expensive. The price of air is for free. But how much is the price of aisle?"

Students: "Um... What?"

Teacher: "Aisle. What do you have to pay to get some aisle?"

Students: "We don't know!"

Teacher: "Aisle costs seventy dollars a barrel!"

Day 92

I recently went to a movie theater that had a very interesting concession stand - snacks were actually priced according to their respective amounts of calories. I asked for popcorn and they charged me two bucks. Then I got a Krispy Kreme donut and it cost me $8.50! I washed those down with a Diet Coke, which was free. Then I got some celery and they gave me thirty-five cents.

Day 91

The reason they limit the Olympics to amateurs...

Day 89

Twofer Tuesday.
