As seen on I-Club…

My car’s in the shop till the end of this week, and I had to take my dad’s Explorer Sport into work today. I know! It’s terrible! y’know what the worst part is?? I kinda enjoyed it!! Its cool to be up that high and feel all superior to all the little cars buzzing around you. The best part is that since al aspects of performance in it are so anemic, you have absolutely no motivation to drive aggressively. With respect to an impreza, it’s like driving a barn. I’m so used to the sports car feel that this thing just feels like a block of metal with an engine. real comfy though. Its fun to drive around a little, but I’d hate it as a daily driver. Also, it has cruise control and I don’t 🙁 .

My 2 annoyances at the moment:

1) Chewing with the mouth open. I feel the urge to fill such an offender’s mouth with my fist.

2) Pluralizing using an apostrope. Being the English vigilante I am, I feel it neccecary to thwart evil at every opertunity by reminding people not to do this by saying such clever things as “car’s? what is it that the car owns?” Isn’t that funny?

Today’s “That guy” award goes to the shuttle bus driver here at Pfizer. 2 people were at a stop sign. we were behind one of them. they were unable to decide who would go first. they were waving at eachother and flashing eachother, indicating the desire to let the other go first. Finally, one sped off, and the other went in turn. upon observing this, the bus driver said, “Anytime this happens to me I simply cover my eyes with my hands and count to 10. This way, the other driver can see my resolve not to go first, and he goes by the time I let my hands down.”

Thebus driver was kind enough to demonstrate this feat of ingenuity for my viewing pleasure.

I hate annoying co-workers. I’ve got one! She sits in the cubicle next to me, and from time to time feels like talking. That wouldn’t be so bad except that she has no idea when to shut up, and apparently feels like I have no work to do. She just keeps talking about whatever she feels like. She giggles after everythign she says. Whats worse is that when she’s done talking she stares at me for the requisite response. A simple head-nod isn’t enough. She wants me to verbally respond to every sentence. I think it would be amusing if half her internal organs were removed, and the other half doubled in size. Yes.. that would do nicely.

Brian – Sorry I haven’t called but as you can see in my earlier post, I'[ve been dead recently. I’m alive now though so I’ll try to get a hold of you.

Today I read an article stating that some scientists believed they had observed the neutrinoless double-beta decay in an interaction. This would be a major discovery since the Standard Model prohibits this through conservation of lepton nuumber. This was shocking to me for a few reasons:

1) I am going to the AIP webpage to search for physics news updates even though I have them automatically emailed to me on a schedule, and I am hunting for sed news before it gets emailed to me.

2) Not only do I know what conservation of lepton number is, but I care that it might have been violated.

3) In my personal list of values, this bothers me more than the war we’re currently at.

I would like to apoligize to my adoring public (Brian) for being dead lately. I cease to be dead. Rejoice.

Last Wed. night in Worcester…

February 1st, 2002 No comments

…The New England chapter of I-Club (NESIC) had what was supposed to be a tame little dinner. It turned out to be a huge event. 18.5 people showed up, and almost as many cars. We ate at Vinny testa’s, and after dinner we caravanned across the street to White City. We all lined up and took pictures of the cars:

notice the pretty red car in the front place =). I’m the only car there without a hood scoop. The rest are WRXs or old-school RSs.

Someone complained we were peeling out and causeing a ruckus. When the police came, I simply told them “Sir, thanks to the beauty of all wheel drive, none of us are ABLE to peel out. It must have been someone else.” They let us be and we dispersed after some conversation. It was a fun time. when most people get together they talk about politics, pop culture, personal issues… When Impreza people get together we talk about speeding tickets and racing lines.

This is one of the funniest sites I’ve been to in a long time.

Anyone who grew up in Sterling with me will know what I mean when I say this reminds me of the Oni Wood. Seems like something Bert would cook up.
