nosaj (Jason M Sachs):
well, i'm running out of creative ideas so badly i think
i'll just pull out one of my old plans.
-------------------------------------------------------
THE NUDE METHOD OF SOLVING RLC CIRCUITS
1) build your circuit. leave lots of room.
2) replace each resistor with a brunette, each
capacitor with a blonde, and each inductor
with a redhead
3) turn on power
-------------------------------------------------------
That's the whole trouble. You can't ever find a place
that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any.
You may *think* there is, but once you get there, when
you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write
"Fuck you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I
think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a
cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say
"Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was
born and what year I died, and then right under that
it'll say "Fuck you." I'm positive, in fact.
-- J. D. Salinger,
"The Catcher in the Rye"
-------------------------------------------------------
the plan now is to graduate in may, then hopefully
stay another year for the MEng program if i can find
funding. if not... well, we'll see.

therese (Therese):
At the still point of destruction
At the centre of the fury
All the angels all the devils
All around us can't you see
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the land
There is a deeper wave than this
Nothing will withstand...
- Sting,
Dream of the Blue Turtles
