Yesterday was onee-chan's birthday!! That was ultra fun. Probably the most amusing present she got was this "Lexicon of Stupidity," with all these stupid things people have said or typed. On the cover it has a quote from Winona Ryder: "I feel my best when I'm happy." Lots of good stuff like that in there. Also, quote from a law maker, "That's phoney, with a capital F!" Also, a US ambassador, "You mean there are TWO Koreas?" Also, some other person, "The meeting was held in secret because it concerns the public so much." Just wow.

Today in English long block we didn't do any real work; we just made posters about respect. Usually that means you're being punished for being disrespectful, but in this case it was because of a discussion we got in a while ago about the lack of respect for minority groups. I don't think random quotes will help much, but whatever. I liked our quote, at least, "Never take a person's dignity: It is worth nothing to you and everything to them." Of course, Shakespeare said that first in Othello, only he phrased it differently.

Let's see. Not much else interesting has been happening in life lately. We had band study today, so I came up with this thingy. You know Ockham's razor? Since it brings the easiest, most simple solution, I decided someone should invent Ockham's lazor, which would turn everything into something with no solution - a paradox. You could shoot Ockham's lazor at a cat and it would suddenly be in a box and you wouldn't know if it was alive or dead. Thanks to Ockham's lazor, you'd get logic like this: If a = b and b = c, then a is divisible by zero.

Oh! And we're watching an amusing movie in Latin, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. Much fun, but I'll have to have more on that later because I need to walk the dog.
