Local JC Trip I went down to my local JC recently. I like taking classes at community colleges, usually on weekends, for a bunch of reasons. For one, I like to learn. I like places like libraries and bookstores where you can find a lot of information here. But learning in a classroom setting […]
Quantum Tunneling Through Pancakes
Need A Haircut I went down to my local barber the other day to get a haircut. But they were much more crowded than normal. No worries. I didn’t have any plans that day. I’d gotten up early that day and finished all my work. I wasn’t in any hurry. I picked up a […]
Editorial Magic
Invention of Writing Without question, one of the most profound inventions of human history was written language.

Split Test Adrenalin Rush
