How many Waterloo students does it take to change a lightbulb?
FIVE - one to design a nuclear-powered one that never needs chabnging; one to figure out how to power the rest of Waterloo using that nuclear-light-bulb; two to install it; and one to write the computer program that controls the wall switch.
How many UVic students does it take to change a lightbulb?
NONE - Llava lamps don't burn out man!!!
Little University humour as Patrick and some of his friends are off to a brand new world. Patrick left this morning on a 8:00 am flight. Poor guy had three suitcases to lug around. I hadn't planned on coming along, but Patrick asked me Friday night if I would come to the airport too. As Bill and I were driving home, I realized I don't think Patrick packed a blanket - he had a matress cover, sheets, pillowcases, towels, but no blanket. When I talked to him this evening, my sympathy quickly disappeared. Seems it's so hot there, he is running his fan already! I got a skype message earlier that he'd already made some friends in his res. One from L.A., one from Oregon, one from Vancouver and another from interior B.C., although they are originally from Ireland.
So it looks like a road trip to Victoria is on hold for a bit longer. Bill has a couple of meeting over the weekend - work related. That works out just fine, as the basement is a disaster and I really need to get out into the garden. I think we are also going to adjust some of the patio stones. Hopefully there will be time to relax as next week is a busy one; working 4 days straight. Hmmm, wonder what Bill will be making for supper?
I forgot to mention, I made my first Christmas present purchase. Little ones are so easy to buy for. It's the bigger kids that make you think more.
The count down is on for the big birthday trip.. Vegas and Garth Brooks. whoooo hoooo.
Anyway, trying to finish up Patrick's school book, so I can put it away.
Later
Stacey
