…why does everyone thing we only have five? I’ve always wondered about this. Isn’t sense of balance a sense outside of the first five? What about temperature? Pain?

I was thinking that the class was supposed to receive by email instructions on writing this third paper. When I did not receive the instructions, I assumed my email address had been excised from the professor's email list, and I proceeded to write this, "Justifying Iraqi Freedom". The title's got a kind of double-meaning, since we're both justifying the freedom of the people of Iraq and the operation Iraqi Freedom.
Anyhow, I wrote this mess as a draft, so if it seems unfinished, then that's probably why.
Incidentally, I don't believe anything in this paper. I thought it would be a challenge beyond the standard "review this" or "interview him". I should have been thinking about my grade. What was I thinking?? It's a good thing I've decided to write about Spiderman for my next paper. Yeah. (Sigh.)
This is the coolest thing I’ve seen on the web in a long time. It’s not just naked people. It actually conveys something beyond nudity.http://120seconds.com/features/011207_naked/011207_naked.html
It's weird. It takes a reasonable amount of effort to put these stupid little images on here. I have to take the picture. I have to get it into the computer for editing. I've got to trace around it to cut out the background. (Perhaps you can't tell, but this picture was taken on my kitchen table.) Resampling, transparency, and uploading.
Anyway, this is the Stickfas Knight. It's a regular Stickfas male figure with some armor and weapons. He also comes with a horse. Applying the knight to the horse and having the whole thing remain standing was quite an ordeal that I'm sure you will appreciate. All of the pieces come in several sprues from which they must be individually removed. Tools are sometimes required.
I've started using a Bayesian filter in Outlook at work to filter spam from my email. Here is a great explanation of the concept and its future.
