just stuff

Yeah, yeah, I know: Where the hell is the fic?! >_> Well, I'd have some if the freaking hamsters would get off their damn wheels and just cooperate. >.<

Instead, I have this... I've seen this guy's Ted Talks and he's really cool, so anyone who maybe needs to refresh or get a head start on something might find his vids helpful. I'll be starting with the basics, like adding and subtracting. *snicker* After I check out the American History section. I do not think Someone was paying attention in her history classes all those years ago and I feel the snarky urge to double-check. ~____^

I wish I'd had this available when I had to take statistics! Maybe it will help me with my research class in the fall! Thanks for the link.

I used to be good at math until I hit some kind of comprehension wall when I took algebra. *sigh* Statistics scares the crap out of me and yet I know it would be a very useful thing to know. ^___^

All those "4 out of 5 doctors surveyed recommend..." things. Right. They surveyed five doctors. That makes me feel confident. O.o

On the way home from my appointment today I saw a GIGANTIC hamster. He was an inflatable at one of the car sales lots. I wished I had thought to snap a pic- but it was so fast- "what is that thing supposed to be? oh! it says Hamster on the shirt!'

I am bookmarking that site!

Which one was he at? O_O That sounds cool! Maybe he could scare mine into behaving... >_>

One of the ones off the 215- whichever one has the hamster ads?

So, I watched the following and winced. Even if there is a little right in there... it's jumbled. I would like a rep who could think and speak clearly when asked an off the cuff question.

Where was that site when the kid was taking statistics? What ever would you be checking? :D

[lavendarlizard.livejournal.com]

I was thinking exactly that! Maybe she'll find it helpful in the future. ^___^

Oh, I just had to refresh what I learned about Paul Revere. ^___^ Yup, the Stupid Person is still stupid. Not to mention incoherent. O.o

Well, apparently she may actually have been correct, in a twisted, dumb-luck kind of way... Paul Revere warned the British -- about warning the Colonists. Does that make Sarah Palin right?

[lavendarlizard.livejournal.com]

Nope. ^___^ Just twisted.
