The economy is bad, and investment firms are dropping one after another; Lehman, Merill Lynch, and AIG.
Well, not everyone in the financial sector is experiencing all-bad news. For example, take Dick Fuld, the CEO of Lehman. He wins the Pai award for best name ever.
So, I was bugging Jen while she was doing her homework. She was annoyed with me, so I had a conversation with my friend Casper, aka the friendly ghost. I guess he's been agitated lately with his recent injuries (see 4 posts down), and just stress in life:
So if you haven't heard me say it before, the best thing about working at the Berkeley Wireless Research Center? Automatic Flush Urinals. However, many strange events occurred during today's visit to the porcelain god. And by many, I mean two.
1) My first urination of the day came at 8:30 pm. This is strange because I drink 16 oz of water when I wake up, and more throughout the day. Granted, I did wake up at 2 pm today.
2) While relieving myself, I heard a sound mid-pissing. It was a very disturbing sound that the urinal never made before. You know that sound that the door's rfid reader's make when you scan your ID on them? It made that sound. Which leads me to believe that our automatic flush urinals are remotely operated:
So the other day, I went to open the door. Unfortunately, I was unable to move out of the way in time:
And, while I know there have been worse accidents,
this one hurt pretty badly. The worse part was that the broken nail kept getting caught in blankets, carpet, etc, so I put my Berkeley education to work.
With my toenail super-glued in place, I am now able to resume kicking a**, without getting my nail caught in underwear.
