2+2=5 .....

..... for extremely large values of 2
I know I know, it's an old math joke but I still find it funny.

It's kind of indicative of how much education and exposure individuals have had to the world. Some people will laugh and fully understand the principle behind it, some will laugh simply because it's wrong. Others will scratch their heads and say "but 2+2=4"!. Ahh the power of symbols. Is 2 a finite quantity, or just a symbol representing anything we want? Does 2 always mean the same thing? Will 2 ever represent The Meaning of Life, The Universe, and Everything?

So this is my first blog of '06, my first blog in a month, and my first blog under the new title! Yes, I just finished re-reading "The Hitchikers Guide to The Galaxy" by Douglas Adams. I'm one of those crazy people that will read a book twice to see if I missed anything the first time through. I've only encountered one movie that is better than it's book, and that was "The Hunt for Red October". One of Tom Clancy's earlier attempts, the book is... let's say verbose, though I don't know what an appropriate word would be for "holy shit let's move the story on buddy".
I don't think I'll ever read "War and Peace".

Kinda random post, kinda weak... maybe later this week I'll get the urge to show the pictures I took yesterday while riding my motorcycle. Yeah that's right, I'm biking in JANUARY!! Hehe..
I love BC!
