Great start to the day. I get my coffee and get harassed by some fucktard on a payphone hoping to score a cigarette off me.

Him: Hey man, you got a smoke

Me: Sorry man

Him: Are you really sorry?

Me: No, not really

Him: You know, I hate people like you

Me: ...

Him Fucking jew!

And I'm not even Jewish! I did however have a bagel with me.


In other news, they were able to make the impossible possible. They actually filmed an electron.
U.S. researchers have captured a movie of a single electron moving through a container of extremely cold liquid helium, a feat once thought impossible.
Humphrey Maris, a professor of physics at Brown University in Providence, R.I., and doctoral candidate Wei Guo used pulses of high-intensity sound to capture an image of the subatomic particle.
The electron, which weighs one octillionth of a gram — a decimal point followed by 26 zeroes and a one — is seen in the video as points of light.
"We were astonished when we first saw an electron moving across the screen," Maris said in a written statement.
The feat was made possible by using sound to expand bubbles that form around the electron as it moves through the liquid helium and flashing a strobe light to capture the image on video.
As the electron moves through the helium, it repels atoms around it, creating the space or bubble. Because the bubbles are too tiny to see, researchers used sound pulses to expand them to about eight microns in size — about the scale of a speck of dust.
The video was first shown at the International Symposium on Quantum Fluids and Solids in Kyoto, Japan, in 2006, and images from the video were published online in the Journal of Low Temperature Physics at the end of May.

Man, scientists must be really bored.

How's your morning shaping up SE? Any interesting encounters with street urchins lately? When you pee, what color is it today?

    Well, Ive been given a shit ton more work out of the blue because other people cant do thier own job. I was also told my old avatar was NSFW and had it removed (RIP hoffpole.gif). Im in the middle of a discussion about rape on the D & D boards in which people dont understand personal responsibilty, which is ok, cause it makes for good debate. Other than that, business as usual here.

    oh, and only 2hrs until the weekend for me, so yeah.. Horray for CET.

    I bounce at a bar on the weekends and people are constantly asking for cigs.

    Two weekends ago a guy rudely interuppted me and a girl I was talking to, and asked me for a cigarette. With one hanging out of my mouth I told him, "Sorry dude, I don't smoke." and turned away.

    He didn't really like that answer.

    Oh well.

    I still read Fallout 1 & 2s manuals once or twice a year.

    I should start smoking just so whenever some person starts being an asshole when trying to beg one off me, I could fling it in their faces. Ha.

    I know. I haven't played it in probably six years, and that was the first time ever. I never played all the way through. And now with Fallout 3, I have renewed vigor for this game. But alas...
