Professor Sisson: “Have we figured out how to raise the melting point of Aluminum yet?”
Professor Apelian: “Yes we have. You just use a different Thermocouple. It works every time.”

HA!

Celina: “I want to throw up school everywhere.”

Take it away Ryan!

As you know, yesterday was my birthday. I took off from work a little bit early today and went surfing in Eastham with a friend. Both of us are seriously badassed dudes, so we were both surfing in 3/2 wetsuits. Needless to say, I was chilly when we got back to the cars, and unceremoniously stripped out of my wetsuit in the parking lot, partially obscured behind my car. I kid you not, as soon as both of us had our wetsuits around our ankles (I need not mention that “seriously badassed dudes” don’t wear anything under a wetsuit), a SCHOOL BUS FULL OF GIRL SCOUTS pulls into the parking lot, and starts offloading the girls!! The best part was when the Girl Scout leader saw my friend (who had boxers on at this point) and was like “nothing to see here ladies, keep moving, come on, let’s go, on the double.”

Ha ha!

This isn’t looking good.

Ryan Schenk: Mike D, I just played the funniest joke!
Mike D: Do share.
Ryan: There is a command on the mac called “say.” If you type in the command followed by a sentence, the computer will actually say the sentence in a computer voice.
Mike D: Okay.
Ryan: It’s especially funny if you log into another user’s mac remotely with SSH, because then the audio will play over THEIR speakers
Mike D: ha ha
Ryan: example

say “Hey Neil, you sure know how to push my buttons, if you know what I’m sayin’”
(neil is my boss)

Excellent Job Ryan Schenk. Excellent Job.

Ryan added his most awesome things to Jesse’s picture.

Theresa was working on some data.

Needless to say… her data isn’t looking too promising:

This is an amazingly fun video.

FISH STORY ALERT!!! We got to the lake around 2:30 PM. At 3:00
o’clock I got dressed for success, gathered up my ice fish’en gear and
headed out. I went out about 40 yards, augured my first hole and
commenced to ice fish’en. I sat there oh I’d say for 20 minutes with
maybe one bite, no fish. I walked out another 15 yards and drilled my
second hole. I sat there for a couple minutes and bang!, a pretty big
fish came a callen, but he got off. I brought up my bait, adjusted
the waxworm on the hook and sent it back down.

Moments later, BANG!

This time he was ON! I’d reel up a little, the fish took some line (I
had the drag set properly - dumb luck!). The rod was bent in two! I
got him close to the bottom of the hole.

Is it a pike?

No, it’s alargemouth bass!!

Charlie Moore would have been proud!
I got him almost out of the hole when the line broke. Larry Largemouth headed
for Davey Jones locker. But, because of the way the hole wasn’t cut
straight plus there was an underwater lip left on the ice by the
cutting blade of the auger, he couldn’t swim to freedom! His tail was
flapping above the hole, so I reached in the icy water and tried to
grab Larry. No luck, he was too slippery. I stood over the hole in
disbelief.

What happened next you ask??

Larry shot out of the hole and onto this ice! Larry with my cherished bait
in his mouth were laying next the the hole!!

Hallelujah Hollywood!!

I got the bait out of Larry’s mouth and held him up with pride.
He was probably 12″ long! I bid Larry farewell and sent him on his way
through the ice labyrinth and back to the happy depths of Londo Lake. That
was the first bass I ever caught through the ice. I was getting pretty cold
so I came in the house to warm up and to tell the fish story!

I got crapped on by a bird the other day.

I was traveling with a bunch of people from work, and for some reason, I was chosen to pick up and carry the 7 pizzas from the pizza place back to the hotel for us all to eat. Luckily I had a friend come and open the doors and such, but…on the way to pick up the pizza, I stopped to read an historical sign. Bad move. The birds of the town apparently lurk above such signs, poised to bomb unsuspecting history enthusiasts with their load of disaster.

Direct hit!

Not only did the bird manage to crap on me, it was subtle enough to crap directly on my head. First I was surprised. Then I was angry. Then I was disgusted. And then, my friend pulled a massive block of tissues from her purse and cleaned off my head. Needless to say, I showered thoroughly after that.

This wasn’t my first encounter of the droppings kind. Many years earlier, I was wearing the jacket affectionately referred to as “The Suade McQuaid” in Quincy Market in Boston, and a bird FLEW INSIDE and crapped on The Suade McQuaid. Luckily again, it was easy to clean.

One has to wonder - is this coincidence? Or did I offend a bird elder in my youth, and incur the unending wrath of birds the world over? Only time will tell…

If you have a trampoline make sure to check your model to be certain you’re not going to fall victim to this major product defect that’s been in the news. I’m not sure which exact brands have the problem. Just check to make sure that your trampoline is not like the one shown HERE.

If it is, you’ll probably want to return it immediately as it can be extremely dangerous. DO NOT JUMP on your trampoline before checking to see if it suffers from this defect. We don’t want anyone getting hurt.

Jesse and Alicia stop by before heading out on the honeymoon.

Mike D: so wait… does that mean Alicia owns a quarter of this property now that you have a ring on your finger?
Jesse: well… since it’s premarital property… I guess I don’t really know the rules
Alicia: If Jesse dies I own his whole half.
Mike D: Jesse should we make our deal on the house before you leave?
Jesse: Alicia would you do the same deal with Mike for the House if I die on this trip?
Alicia: well, I’d probably just marry Mike and we’d live here together.
Mike D: That might be a problem. Because if Tony dies I promised to marry Paulette.
Alicia: I’m cool with that.

Trojan Horse Hilarity

From Jim.

Ruth: i just rode my bike a short distance to the OTHER library, woods hole public library, in order to get Harry potter book 2 and my shame was twofold, one I couldn’t find it, so i had to ask a librarian where i could find “the harry potter books” and two, she took me to the very back corner of the children’s book room for them
Timothy: hahaha
Ruth: the shelves back there are only like three feet tall
Timothy: or wait! is it voldeMORTIFYING?

At the BBQ on Saturday, Irene took a picture of Devin, Jesse, and me.

Right before the picture was snapped, she asked us to do something awesome. So in the moment of truth, I jumped down on my knees threw a thumbs up at the camera and grinned like a king. Devin and Jesse’s attempts were far less noteworthy.

Check out the picture HERE.

Jesse pointed out that the picture is about 1000x more hilarious if you pretend that I’m not kneeling and that I’m just a really excitable midget.

To demonstrate this, I used MSPaint and threw in some legs.

Enjoy!

Friend: i was just on the elevator with a girl who was so hot it actually hurt to look at her. just thought you should know…1-10, she was a 14-15
Mike D: darn it!
Friend: yeah
Mike D: that sounds like a lot of hot
Friend: the funny part was there was this skeezy old man in the elevator with her carrying a huge fax machine
Mike D: oh yeah?
Friend: eventually it became clear that the hot blonde in little black dress had a homeless man carry her big fax machine for her
Mike D: Wow
Friend: and used her hotness to convince him so she kept saying “oh, its so hot outside” and fanning herself and in general being extra cute. it was odd and hilarious
Mike D: I hate women… NO! I LOVE THEM! …NO! I hate them!
Friend: lol so manipulative!

::pause::

Friend: though, she could have asked me to carry it to Detroit and I’d be walking right now

I didn’t notice until just now…
