I Won't Give You Anthrax or Anything

If I achieved nothing else today, I saved my students from the homework assignment from Hell. The professor snuck in a question at the last minute, assuming that it would be quite easy. I started working on the answer sheet this morning, only to get hopelessly stuck. A quick trawl on the Internet didn’t seem to find anything, so it was time to break out the big guns (see, they were useful). I eventually found an answer.

Which ran to ten pages of dense maths involving imaginary integrals.

One hurried email to the professor later, the question was removed. That should prevent a deluge of confused students at my office on Thursday...

I did intend to vote today. Honest. But the blasted website refused to let me enter with Mozilla, and then Internet Explorer wouldn't work properly, and then a student came in with some questions. So it slipped my mind a little.

Go and buy the new Nick Cave album.

Insane and stupid ideas at the ready.

Get Your War On.
