Ég fékk fallega gjöf í gær þegar ég kom heim af American Style.
Atli gaf mér 5 dvd-diska settið með Carmen Elektra...ég er
orðlaus!
Ég er farin að skilja Tvinnfallagreininguna enn betur, minn
skilningur er sá að fólk kann stærðfræði eins og íslenskuna, en
síðan kemur að því að fólk þurfi að læra dönsku og
þá þarf maður að fara að leggja aðeins meira á sig. Áþekk
íslenskunni en samt svo miklu miklu erfiðari...svona rétt eins og
að kunna stærðfræði og fara svo að bæta við sig tvinntölunum,
nýtt tungumál í raun.
Svo vil ég minna alla á að senda samúðarskeytin, pabbi, Begga, Emma
og Brynja eru í Portúgal og hvað með mig!!
Ekki er það bætandi að Rannveg sé í þessum töluðu orðum að fljúga
yfir til Danmerkur, Vala nýskriðin útúr NY-flugvélinni
og og og mig langar í ferðalag. Fjallgöngur verða að duga
mér næsta árið.
Til að svara bloggi Önnu Huldu vil ég enda mittkvæði í
krossfeldi...þeas.:
You might
be an engineer if . . .
. .
. you have no life and can prove it
mathematically.
. .
. you enjoy pain.
. .
. you know vector calculus but you can’t remember how to do long
division.
. .
. you chuckle whenever anyone says “centrifugal
force.”
. .
. you’ve actually ever used every single function on your graphing
calculator.
. .
. when you look in the mirror, you see an engineering
major.
. .
. it is sunny and 70 degrees outside, and you are working on a
computer.
. .
. you frequently whistle the theme song to
“MacGyver.”
. .
. you always do homework on Friday nights.
. .
. you know how to integrate a chicken and can take the derivative
of water.
. .
. you think in “math.”
. .
. you’ve calculated that the World Series actually
diverges.
. .
. you hesitate to look at something because you don’t want to break
down its wave function.
. .
. you have a pet named after a scientist.
. .
. you laugh at jokes about mathematicians.
. .
. the Humane Society has had you arrested because you actually
performed the Schroedinger’s Cat Experiment.
. .
. you can translate English into Binary.
. .
. you can’t remember what’s behind the door in the science building
which says "Exit.”
. .
. you have to bring a jacket with you, in the middle of summer,
because there’s a wind-chill factor in the lab.
. .
. you are completely addicted to caffeine.
. .
. you avoid doing anything because you don’t want to contribute to
the eventual heat-death of the universe.
. .
. you consider any non-science course “easy.”
. .
. when your professor asks you where your homework is, you claim to
have accidentally determined its momentum so precisely, that
according to Heisenberg it could be anywhere in the
universe.
. .
. the “fun” center of your brain has deteriorated from lack of
use.
. .
. you’ll assume that a “horse” is a “sphere” in order to make the
math easier.
. .
. you understood more than five of these
indicators.
. .
. you make a hard copy of this list and post it on your office
door.
. .
. you think it might be a neat idea to send this message to all of
your friends in the form of email.
. .
. you know the glass is neither half full nor half empty; it's
simply twice as big as it needs to be.

It all makes sense now...
Dilbert's "Salary Theorem" states that "Engineers and scientists
can never earn as much as business executives, sales people,
accountants and especially liberal arts majors." This theorem can
now be supported by a mathematical equation based on the following
two well known postulates:
- Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.
- Postulate 2: Time is Money.
As every engineer knows: Power = Work / Time.
Since: Knowledge = Power,
then Knowledge = Work / Time,
and Time = Money,
then Knowledge = Work / Money.
Solving for Money, we get: Money = Work / Knowledge.
Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, money approaches infinity,
regardless of the amount of work done.
