Sorry residents of fish. Someone on my floor set off the fire alarm. "How the fuck do you burn an easy Mac" said one guy.
Seriously! There is actually a fire! Screw the world. I needed to go through the tunnels and go to Sol's to get some cold medicine...Retards...Would the alarms be audible by Sol's Underground? I could always walk to Sol Heumann from the outside, and then go underneath it...
But the train has weight to dig the rim into the road. Bikes don't have that.
So how's that train steer?
I don't know how a trains go around those bends under normal conditions, much less on pavement. Is it a differential type system, or each side controlled independently (like a tank)... I'm sure Wikipedia knows but I don't care enough to ask it.
Pretty well, it seems. /hot like train wheels screeching across pavement

Train wheels are flanged so that when they go into a turn, the smaller part of the inside wheel and the larger part of the outside wheel are touching the track.
Girl who I mentioned in the Booh Yah thread last week is probably not interested in me, as I learned last night. I will still try and talk to her about all of this, but at this point, it seems unlikely she has been, or will be, considering me as a potential date/boyfriend. *Sigh.* Curse all the people around me telling me that she was interested in me.
Yeah. This. Guess Rym never had model trains as a kid, or saw some operating. Or something.
What? I was right from the start. The image of trying to "ride a train on the road" didn't make sense, as the train would have no ability to steer. I knew exactly what I was talking about. ;^)

Flange is a funny word. Flange. Flange.
Imagine trying to ride a train on the road.
Does surfing a train going down the middle of an inner city street count? Because I'm imagining that right now, and it's awesome.

Carl Sagan is dead. Yes, I know he's been dead for a while, and I've known that for some time. But watching the "Pale blue dot" video posted in the ToTD thread and subsequent related videos reminded me of how much of a fail for the world that really was.

Okay, the motivational stuff is funny, but seriously, she's not interested. She explicitly told me, relatively unprompted, that she was interested in someone else, and has mentioned being attracted to a lot of other people around me. Given that the person she told me was interested in is in a relationship, her telling me about it seems to signify I wasn't even a backup for her. It's alright, I will talk to her about it, and move on. There seem to be enough single girls around campus, though that will end within a few months.
I'm just lonely...I know it's lame, and directly going out and trying to meet people with that intent is bad, but I can't help it. And even just thinking a girl was interested in me has just sort of made the whole thing worse...This is the part of college I was worried about.

Oh FSM, END THIS AGONY.

SEEEEEEEPPPAGE!
Is there a need to be in a relationship for being a frosh? What's the hurry? Just make friends and hang out. If there is an attraction, make a move.
