those wacky students

Filed under: Strange email — cec @ 8:20 pm

I love email like this:

sir/madam
plz if u can send me aticles on image compression and neural networks for
my thesis reserach work.
thanks
XXXXX

I always want to respond back that I’ll jump right on it since I have nothing better to do.

This is in direct contrast to a very nice email I received from an instructor at an Indian university asking to get a pdf copy of a lab manual that one of my old professors and I wrote 10 years ago.  That one, I’ll go to the archives and retrieve to send on.

Pirate culture

Can someone tell me when our political experts decided that everyday is Talk Like a Pirate Day?  I’m sure it’s just me, but if I hear the formulation that Iraq has cost us in “blood and treasure,” one more time, I may have to make the cur walk the plank.
