Lest I Forget

Got irritated by a comment elsewhere the other day and actually replied to it, only to be bitten on the ass about it afterward (hence my recent slightly obscure Star Wars-based catty post). The person who snapped has since apologized, and that's fine, but it reminded me why I don't talk about some things here. It's not that I don't have opinions, or don't appreciate reasoned debate, but I should have been concentrating on studying hook echoes and rear flank downdrafts rather than the issue that distracted me. Must keep in mind one of my favorite quotes of all time:

There are three things I have learned never to discuss with people: religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin.
-- Linus Van Pelt

Which reminds me, I got a t-shirt with the classic pose of Linus holding his blanket and sucking his thumb. I still need to print that quote on a transfer for the back of said shirt.

The Googles Do Nothing

(Appropriate, anyway, when used incorrectly.)

Having the correct search window up is critical. Using regular Google rather than Google Scholar can be a bad thing when looking for pulsating cumulus.

Pulsating is not a word that should ever be used in the regular Google window when at school.
