9 things I’ll be doing today in lieu of blogging

  1. Soapbox derby racing with “Dusty,” the cardboard and balsa wood General Lee
  2. Operation!
  3. Reigniting my love affair with the Claussen dill pickle spear
  4. Putting to rest that pesky pi problem once and for all
  5. Dwarf bowling
  6. Working on anagrams to the phrase “The Saudis are our allies, I swear it!”
  7. Baking cupcakes; impatiently eating icing straight from the can
  8. Purchasing Vermont, returning it to the Hippies Eating cupcakes
  9. Feeling the love!

update: That pi problem is a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. Turns out there’re like, millions of numbers to sort through. So if it’s not too late, I’d like to change pi to “the Saturday ‘Jumble’.” Thanks.

  1. re: #5…

    What do you feel about midget substitutions? (sorta the Desiganted Hitter analog for all Little People sports)

    Re #4:

    God told me in a dream that the last digit is seven… Hope this helps!

  3. Ah, the pesky pi problem.  That’s when you remove that first wedge of pi from the pi pan and the contents of the pi wedges immediately adjacent to, and on either side of the removed wedge of pi begin to ooze into the space recently vacated by the removed pi wedge which renders the subsequent removal of the aforementioned adjacent pi wedges both messy and difficult and causes much consternation among the anxious prospective pi consumers due to the inherent lack of equality between each subsequently removed dripping, messy pi wedge.  That pi problem?

    And dwarf bowling?  Gimli will object… strenuously.

  4. #2 Remember: It takes a steady hand.

    #6- How about “Irate Russia wholesalers adieu it”. 

    I did it all by myself.  And I didn’t have to go to http://www.anagramsite.com or anything like that…oops.

    #7 Icing from a can? No wonder those pesky Arabs cry American degeneracy.

    (I assume this is a carb free cupcake)

    “Moving back to Vermont soon.”

    “With the money made in Montana as a dental floss tycoon.”

    Ripped off and twisted directly from the original Frank Zappa works.

    Get Real.  There is no Pi problem.  Stop trying to square that circle, forcing Pi into your standard Rational construct – it just won’t work.  Accept Pi’s Irrationality and celebrate it. Move on to the Imaginary, as i has. It’s Complex.

    Is Robert Reich on your dwarf bowling team?
