Zombie Haikus (probably NSFW, in parts)
Topless Robot ran a user submitted Zombie Haiku contest. I though the boom should know... and all of his readers. I did NOT read them, so there may be things one would normally not find on ZombieBoomStick. You've been warned; click in an informed manner.

History Goes High(er) Def
Evidently NASA is expected to release newly found footage of the Apollo 11 moon landing. This footage is supposed to be clearer and higher quality than the newsreel footage that has been shown for the past forty years. The footage we all have seen is apparently from a 16mm camera pointed at NASA's main screen, recording the images sent from the moon (government funded video piracy? bootlegging? I'll bet the guy with the camera even snuck in his own snacks, not bothering to pay at the concession stand). This "new" footage is apparently from the original signal, which was thought to be lost.
Neat.
Neat.

A Little Something for Weevil
As I popped online to waste a few minutes, I spotted a link on comcast's home page claiming to have pictures of the "lovely ladies of golf." I was confused. Was there such a thing? With perhaps two or three exceptions, the impression I get from women golfers is that they are about as feminine in appearance as Brett Favre.
Apparently I was quite mistaken.

Another Quarter Down
Thursday I took the last of my finals for spring quarter. I know I did well enough in Sociology and Economics. Those two classes were such that I could (and often did) sleep through them and still get decent grades. Japanese ended on a fun note. I'm not sure what my grade will be, but I would guess high 3.0.
Then comes calculus. I was sitting at about 3.5 going into the final. I took about three-and-a-half hours to complete the four-hour final. I am really not sure how I did. Some questions seemed entirely too easy, as though I had misread them. Then there was a group of three questions that combined to take me about an ninety mintues to complete.
If I maintained my 3.5 I will be happy. But, to take Tom Petty out of context, the waiting is the hardest part.

Stress Relief
I was looking over my grades tonight, guaging what I needed to do in order to acheive 4.0 (or see what my highest possible grade could be) in my various classes. Apparently I have done so much extra work in my sociology class, I could score a zero on the final and still get a 4.0.
I doubt I'll be allowed to skip the test, however. Too bad.

Nothing to See Here
Move along. These are not the droids you are looking for.
I have nothing of substance to say. I am simply posting for the sake of posting.
