Okay, this is a little out of date... but the same week that Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Special Edition came out, The Sun (think National Enquirer) published a story that they found the Holy Grail in Afghanistan. Coincidence? I think not!

Yeah... Every time I go to a used bookstore (not as often as I should) I look for Fletch by Gregory McDonald -- there is a whole series of them, and they're all out of print. Well, I just found out that they are finally going to be released.

So I'm checking my departmental (paper) mailbox, and lo and behold -- I got a free texbook: Digital Signal Processing by Cavicchi. Free textbook: wahoo!

Like many of my generation, I love Kevin Smith -- so I was delighted to read this comic about his first kiss.

okay, so my first post: for the last couple of days, I've been learning a new programming language: prolog. Man, talk about thinking ouside the box -- completely different than any other language I've seen.
