I was recently involved in a Habitat for Humanity project which was funded by Oprah and Kevin Garnett for 10 families displaced by Hurricane Katrina. There was a 10 day neighborhood blitz, in which the ten new homes were built on one street. Overall it was a wonderful experience.
The one thing that always get me about Habitat is that they pick the worst neighboorhood find the deepest darkest corner and build a really pretty house. Yeah!!!!! Heres your new house built on a conventional foundation (crack whores and addicts need a place to sleep also) and your new bulletproof vest. The families showed up and were obviously excited to get a new house. It was wonderful to see how much they appreciated what they were getting.

Jimmy's Crafty
We watched an A&E special on a woman who had half of a body. She was amazing, but her husband was hilarious. Every time he was on camera it was at the gym and every interview was about his prowess at being an alpha male. A little twist of irony. . his wife's brother (Jimmy) hit him in the head with a chain. . .he has the mind of an eight year old. How do you not see that coming?
All we could figure. . . . . Jimmy's crafty.

Free Books, Free Love
Our crime fighting mayor is cleaning up this town. He is closing down strip clubs and adult "novelty" shops. The one thing he cannot shut down is the U's pubicles.
The black sheep of the cubicle family was brought about when a cubicle and porn viewing booth shared their love one starry evening.
They are all the rage with a lot of students at the U (or so I have been told). All you have to do is rent (for free) your viewing instrument (i.e. laptop paid for by the State) and retreat to your own private pubicle in the comfort of the library.
I am thinking about putting out the bat signal to let our mayor know what is going on with taxpayer money. It would be worth it just to see him pull people out them by their "Linuses" and "Charlie Browns".

Statistical probability for failure - 100%
I did a t-test to measure the p-value which will quantify the probability of failing my upcoming Statisitics test.
The answer came out to be two kangaroos and a hot air baloon.
I think I forgot to carry the one somewhere.
