Gladly, anytime you request a snip you can have one.
Androcles.

Is your life really so empty that the only thing worth doing is
following folks around and responding with stupid shit such as that?

Ignore him, Eric. You have your studies to concentrate on,
I have mine. Pathology and Pharmacology are giving me real
headaches. What are -you- studying?

Not this week. Spring break, where my only company is my music and the
disembodied voices of the internet. That is what I get for not going
home like everybody else.

This semester it is complex analysis, geometry, proofs, and some
calculus I already know and should have put away last year. The theme
for Spring '06 is: MATH.

Although it sure does feel good seeing those calc grades. I'm sure the
last part makes my advisor happy, now I won't have to hear about how I
need to take it ever again.

One would think complex analysis would be the harddest of them all.
Surprisingly, it is geometry. When I finally change to/include math as
a major, geometry will still not be a graduation requirement. I really
should take the easy path sometime.

With this stuff filling my time, GR has once again been told to go
away. I have my superficial understanding, with the occasional stab at
something meaningful. Deep understanding will take lots of time and yet
more math, both of which I am not willing to muster a stream of at this
point in time.
