Companionship, partnership, mutual reassurance, someone to laugh with
and grieve with, loyalty that accepts foibles, someone to touch, someone
to hold your hand -- these things are "marriage," and sex is but the
icing on the cake. (Lazarus Long)

My roomie was telling me about his trip home when he took his
girlfriend (now fiancee) home to meet people. While there, he met one
of his old friends that was not overly experienced in sexual matters.
During that evening, sexual matters became the topic of conversation as
they often do among young people our age. They found out that his
friend thought that "oral sex" was when two people kissed each other
using their tongues. (ie. french kissing) Nononono, they told her
admist their chuckles, and proceeded to explain what oral sex actually
was.
My roomie then confided that he was considering buying his friend a copy
of "The Joy of Sex" while he was out shopping at a bookstore. He almost
bought it for her to give her a little better understanding, but decided
against it because of the prohibitive cost.
"Oh I get it," I said knowingly, "You were going to tell her to
Read The Fucking Manual."

jtidwell (Jenifer P. Tidwell):
Whereas, it has been Noticed by particular Persons of keen Observation that
the Posters for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Gilbert and
Sullivan Players' production of Princess Ida are Missing the precise Location
of the Opera,
Whereas, the aforementioned Players are located at the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, and therefore, are Familiar with the Spirit of said Institution,
Whereas, there is a Prevailing attitude, namely, to leave Proofs as an
Exercise to the gentle Reader,
Be it Resolved that the Gentle Reader determine for his own edification the
Exact location of our Production.

meaning of life and death, muck around a bit, procrastinate, think some
more, talk to a skull, and take a trip, you might want to possibly
prepare to die."

GAAAH!
I'm trying to develop a new system according to the official Administrative
Systems Development guidelines. Here's an example:
During a preliminary analysis, a commercially available package may be one
of the technical alternatives considered in deliverable 260, Technical
Alternatives. If so, a Market Survey, deliverable 262, is performed to
gather further information on available packages. If these two deliverables
indicate that implementing a package is preferable to developing a customized
application, then Package Evaluation Criteria, deliverable 264, is developed.
A Request for Proposal (RFP) is one option for evaluating vendors interested
in supplying a package that satisfies the project's requirements; finalists
chosen from the respondents are invited to MIT for demonstrations. The
Package Evaluation Report, deliverable 266, is written using the criteria
previously established in deliverable 264. (Quality Assurance Manual, p. 104)
In other words, before you build something, see if you can buy it
off-the-shelf.

Work on 6.270 Autonomous robots and populate MIT with them.
Find someone who is dedicated and willing to continue the 6.270
saga so that future students can enjoy at least one aspect of
Course 6.
Work on my Thesis:
Explore the wonderful world of Wavlets and try to
use them in speech communication.
A realization from wavelet analysis:
1. Math is good
2. You can never have too much math.
3. In fact I don't know any math. Hence my new plan:

Oh, the places you'll go! There is fun to be done!
There are points to be scored! There are games to be won!
And the magical things you can do with that ball
Will make you the winningest winner of all!
Fame! You'll be as famous as can be,
With the whole wide world watching you win on TV.

One of the ones I liked best was an exchange between a United jet
and LA departures.
United: "Los Angeles departures, United xxx with you out of two thousand"
LA: "United xxx, radar contact. Turn left heading 220, climb and maintain
13,000. (pause) Where are you going tonight?"
United: "Newark (pause) somebody has to go there."
