A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of.

Well, hello from a very sunny Winnipeg where the snow is melting faster than you can say Smilla's sense of snow. Say, if it takes 50 joules per shovelful of snow and you can earn 4.2 joules per calorie taken in and you take in say 3,000 calories a day......how much snow could you shovel with this much energy???? Or how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood.... at 50 joules per chuck?......and assuming that there are 4.2 joules for each chuck shucked. I have just compled the final class of the web design course I was taking and my headd is full of information and it is over-flowing...at least the physics part...oh yeah and the rhyming bit too.
I spent some time at the aviation museum today. I am now a tour guy..er guide. Luckily my first group was from "Faith Academy". Little evangelicals with an atheist guide. there were 22 kids and none of them listened to a thing that was said. I spoke to one of the parent chaperones and she asked me what is the difference between a jet and an airplane? She also couldn't fathom women pilots..."I would not feel safe with a woman pilot flying the plane, she'd probably have other things on her mind". I guess so, I would imagine that anyone who could become a pilot would have thinking powers. Oh well, don't confuse me with the facts...I've got my mind made up. At least the little buggers were well behaved.
Better go and get some sleep, got to get to the aviation Museum by 10:00am to so some securitanizationinglikething.
Later, keep on blogging............
