The space kazoo will be mine!

(21:39:37) Sniffnoy: yay I got a real kazoo!
(21:39:46) NAR8789: yay!
(21:39:49) NAR8789: kazoos are tasty!
(21:40:21) Sniffnoy: not this one :(
(21:40:24) NAR8789: oh
(21:40:29) NAR8789: well that's ok I guess
(21:40:42) Sniffnoy: but, it kazoos!
(21:40:56) NAR8789: yay!
(21:41:05) NAR8789: that's almost as good as being tasty
(21:41:22) Sniffnoy: it's not as good for startling people as the space whistle that Ingrid gave me
(21:41:28) Sniffnoy: so I won't use it for that like I originally planned
(21:41:31) Sniffnoy: but it kazoos!
(21:41:34) NAR8789: yay!
(21:41:47) NAR8789: well maybe a space kazoo would be good at startling people?
(21:41:51) Sniffnoy: OOH!
(21:41:54) Sniffnoy: yes!
(21:41:56) Sniffnoy: space kazoo!
(21:42:16) Sniffnoy: but I can't really make one, I don't have access to plastic like that
(21:42:20) NAR8789: hmmmm
(21:42:48) NAR8789: then somehow you need to get abducted by aliens and then steal their space plastic while they're not looking
(21:42:52) Sniffnoy: yes!
(21:43:08) Sniffnoy: I wonder if that's where the space whistle really comes from?
(21:43:19) Sniffnoy: It says it comes from West Germany...
(21:43:23) NAR8789: oh
(21:43:32) NAR8789: well west germans are technically aliens
(21:43:42) Sniffnoy: ah! I bet it was made in West Germany from space plastic!
(21:43:47) Sniffnoy: or, that could be it too
(21:43:56) NAR8789: your idea sounds better actually
(21:44:17) NAR8789: ooo maybe you don't have to get abducted then. you can just commandeer the West Germans' supply
(21:44:22) Sniffnoy: yes!
(21:44:22) Sniffnoy: but
(21:44:28) Sniffnoy: West Germany doesn't exist anymore
(21:44:30) NAR8789: oh
(21:44:45) NAR8789: Then... first you have to re-divide Germany
(21:44:57) Sniffnoy: do I have to start a world war?
(21:45:05) NAR8789: hmmm
(21:45:40) NAR8789: No, you merely need to get the allies to divide germany
(21:45:45) NAR8789: somehow put it up for sale I suppose
(21:46:05) NAR8789: ebay!
(21:46:19) Sniffnoy: put the division of Germany up for sale?
(21:46:31) NAR8789: well you would put germany up for sale in pieces
(21:46:41) Sniffnoy: but I don't own Germany...
(21:46:46) NAR8789: oh
(21:47:17) NAR8789: ok I've got it now
(21:47:33) NAR8789: somehow you convince the german government to sell you the western half
(21:47:48) NAR8789: and then not only will west germany exist, you will already own the space plastic supply
(21:47:53) Sniffnoy: yay!
(21:48:02) Sniffnoy: and then I can ebay it afterwards for the money
(21:48:06) NAR8789: yes!
(21:49:58) Sniffnoy: and then
(21:50:01) Sniffnoy: with my space kazoo
(21:50:11) Sniffnoy: I can kazoo and startle people at the same time!
(21:50:16) NAR8789: yes!
(21:50:19) NAR8789: the perfect crime!
(21:51:49) Sniffnoy: I will have to pay a kazoo manufacturer to make my space kazoo, though
(21:52:14) NAR8789: hmmm
(21:53:46) Sniffnoy: well, I'm sure there are people at school who can get me in contact with a kazoo manufacturer
(21:54:19) NAR8789: aye that's true
(21:54:27) Sniffnoy: then it is planned!
(21:54:35) Sniffnoy: the space kazoo will be mine!
(21:54:40) NAR8789: yay!

"As I said in a couple of minutes..." -Dr. Galitskiy

Apparently *everyone* got deferred from MIT this year. Not one acceptance. Not one rejection either, for that matter.

Yay, it seems Ben (Smith, not Hsieh) will be joining QB. He knows a *lot* of history, apparently.

Now I've got to get Vlad to actually come to practices. More importantly, to actually come to tournaments...

When I got home today I found a kazoo on my desk. I wonder who put it there. It didn't work, though, so I'm sticking to my space whistle for now. :D

Addendum: The kazoo works; I just wasn't using it properly. Thank you mom!
