Well, no I don't, but that's beside the nonexistent point.

So, considering my TI-89 is lost, Mr. Holbrook has lent me a TI-85 which somebody lost but nobody ever claimed.

Somehow, I'm not surprised nobody has claimed it.

Complex numbers are entered as ordered pairs - which is not really a bad thing, it's more of just a "why?!" when the 83 already had an i button. Some of its features are really rather cryptic - what is this bizarre error message I get when I try to do bit-shifting? The whole thing is designed confusingly. Entering matrices is a pain.

...am I ever going to use these features? No. Do I care? No.

So, on the bus back today, Route 4 was /really/ clogged up - we managed to convince the bus driver to take the local streets instead, but she didn't really know her way around; fortunately, one of the freshmen did. (It should probably be noted at this point that George almost got us onto Route 4. Hence the title quote, from Tom, of course.) He managed to get us onto Century Road. But, already on Century Road, from which it should have been easy to get home, the bus driver, instead of crossing over Route 17 like we told her, got *onto* Route 17. We eventually got off at Midland and took a short time convincing her not to immediately get back onto 17 in the other direction. At this point pretty much all of those of us in the front knew the way around (or at least we did once we realized we were on Grove), and directed the bus driver to Coleman.

Oh, and I would have gotten a 92 on the nervous system paper, but -10 for 2 days late.

Yay for pointless entries.
