Some things that either happened on the last day or that I never talked about...
So this year at the Frisbee game (which I missed), we had a chant that went like this: Bernie would loudly shout "COCKPUNCH!" and everyone else would respond "RSI!". Occasionally he would substitute "DICK KICK!". We actually got a preview of this at the talent show, when Charlie brought some of his RSI friends along, although then it was only Dustin responding. Anyway, after the Frisbee game, this chant would occasionally start up somewhere else - often in the cafeteria, in front of all the other programs, usually with Anton doing the shouting, as, well, he's good at that. If I'm not mistaken, there have even been some non-PROMYS people joining in. So yesterday at dinner, Anton started shouting it really, really loud - loud enough to certainly drown out any other noise in the area. It was great. :D
So yesterday someone left a newspaper on the floor of Stone B50 after lecture. It had a great headline: "Another Manhole Explodes in North End." *Another* one.
Oh, two of the rules on the blackboard during the final were, consecutively, "No eating" and "No first years". Someone pointed out that these combined to "No eating no first years."
Also, on the way to the final, I saw some sort of lifter machine carrying these packages labeled:
ROXUL AFB
Acoustical Fire Butts
...WTF?! I am so wondering what in space an "acoustical fire butt" could be...
Oh, one other great thing from ∞-boy: He said he didn't get a T-shirt because his parents never got an order form.
Things to do in the month or so before leaving for Chicago:
1. Fix computer (by which I mean reinstall the OS (by which I mean switch distributions))
Things I owe:
1. A copy of a book on polynomials which I apparently never returned to Mr. Holbrook
2. A copy of the Civil Engineering Handbook that I borrowed from my neighbor last year for that stupid bridge-building thing
Things owed me:
1. My Tom Lehrer CDs!
Things I owe that I will not be able to return for quite some time:
1. Ben Wolf's extension cord that he lent me on the first day of PROMYS
And now, because someone wanted it last year, I'll do it again this year:
( The (forwards) text of this year's T-shirt )-Sniffnoy
( The footnotes )
