geeky jokes

So Heisenberg is driving down the highway in his fancy car. He looks up and sees behind him a police car flashing red and blue lights. Heisenberg pulls over and rolls down his window. The policeman comes up and asks him: "Sir, do you have any idea how fast you were going?!"
Heisenberg replies: " No officer, but I could certainly tell you where I was!"


heh heh heh

(more!)

How many physical chemists does it take to wash a beaker?
None. That's what organic chemists are for!



A physicist, biologist and a chemist were going to the ocean for the first time.

The physicist saw the ocean and was fascinated by the waves. He said he wanted to do some research on the fluid dynamics of the waves and walked into the ocean. Obviously he was drowned and never returned.

The biologist said he wanted to do research on the flora and fauna inside the ocean and walked inside the ocean. He too, never returned.

The chemist waited for a long time and afterwards, wrote the observation, "The physicist and the biologist are soluble in ocean water".



Chemists do it periodically on table.
Electrochemists do it with greater potential.
Polymer chemists do it in chains.

bah humbug?

ugh. i dont even know where to begin. this is a boredom post - i simply have nothing else to do. likely it will turn quickly to me complaining about life, the universe and stuff like that. get over it or stop reading if you dont want to hear it. i dont habitually complain. not really. i mean, sure, there's always the little things that we "whine" about... but never in real seriousness. i know that its not the end of the world that they were out of my favorite whatever at the grocery store. and i wont die because the bus was 5 minutes late. the little inconveniences dont really get to me. and why should they? i am an intelligent and happy individual, healthy in mind body and spirit... right? i know that my lot in life could be a lot worse, what right do i have to complain.

but no one really has a 'right' to complain, so i will do it anyways. i've had just the worst... everything... for what feels like so long. its like me and the rest of me have lost touch. like something is missing, and i know what it is, but i cant get it. even though i know that it is most certainly in my reach - should i choose to extend my hand but a little. (i've had a sudden recollection of michelangelo's 'Hands' and recieved a true awareness of the intent there.) is this why all this crap stuff is going on? exams were -relatively- horrible, vancouver wasnt so hot (hello new years? what happened there?!), i gained 10 pounds, schools started with all its hardness, and i lost 50 dollars worth of underwear today (yes, new). so what now? i want to scream, but i've never really been the screaming type. and somehow a quiet "fuck it" just doesnt cut it. its not just the above grievences, theres lots more... sharon, mom, vancouver in the spring, boys... its like, all the bits i never complained about have coalesced into lots of big things. and i am terrifically unprepared to deal. i miss jo terribly, sometimes you just need a true friend with a shoulder to cry on. dammit. i dont cry!

this is getting too personal. not for all the strangers, but for the aquaintances who can follow links here. sorry people, i'm not really a whiney wimp who unloads her problems so that she can milk sympathy expressions. hell, i dont even like doing that on the damn msn name. people need to be able deal with their problems, not dump them on the first available ear. people also shouldnt snatch unattended shopping bags.

well. the cereal is gone. hell, i didnt even get any groceries today. ha! there goes the extra 10! lol. well, there is always a bright side to things, and things really do happen for a reason (like, the bus we would of caught just might of exploded! who knows?). and that is enough for a while. and yes - i will be happy very soon. once my luck turns around a bit. or i turn myself around and see the good luck behind me. did that make sense? ah.
