Whether or not you've heard by now, Miss Australia is this year's Miss Universe. I think she'll really make a difference. What does she do anyway? Regardless, I was flipping channels last night after the Pacers lost to the Pistons (oof, the first half saw a combined total of 60 points scored) and saw pretty girls so naturally, I stopped for a moment to see what all this was about. I was watching with Mari, and we remarked a bit as we saw Miss Puerto Rico, Miss Ecuador and Miss Colombia. Miss Australia walked, and I grinned and said "She can go 'down under' on me any time!" And the only reason it matters today is because that's our new Miss Universe, teehee. Yes, I know, it's a horrible joke but that's my sexual-humor so, ha! The whole thing is weird because I mean how presumptuous is it to say Miss Universe. Why can't she be Miss World?
Speaking of which, does anybody remember those old McWorld commercials for McDonalds, those were the days! Every now and then I reference it, and people respond, "Scully, what the hell are you talkin' about now?" Like it was so long ago people can't remember.
In my Film class today, (Super 8mm) we were becoming familiar with the cameras and stuff, it is the first day after all. And the prof told the class that each cartridge of film was 50 feet long and was able to film 18 frames per second for three minutes and twenty seconds. So, I set about to figure out how many seconds were equivalent to a foot. But before I could finish, he asked how many frames were on a 50 foot roll. And I blurted out 3,600 (200 seconds x 18 frames per second). My prof was simply amazed, asked me quickly to explain how I got that number, and then told everybody that in all his years of teaching (which judging by his age and stories is probably longer than I've been in school myself) nobody had ever known sooo fast. It's simple math. And of course, now, because I managed to do a simple multiplacation problem, any time the class needs some math done, he's going to look to me to bloody well do it. Welcome back to fourth grade. Which, if you aren't Mikey, you know nothing about. But let's just say I caught hell for knowing my multiplacation tables better than anyone else in my class.
And man did Miss Vinik hate me in third grade. Oh, let's see what-ever happened to that lawsuit against her. Didn't find anything... weird. Ten minutes until I go home, more on the morrow.
