aggienaut Yesterday in a moment of insanity/genius I made a "customer service questionnaire" regarding the previous entry. Hilarity ensued. If you haven't filled out the Customer Service Questionnaire yet I think you should ASAP.
In summer school classes at UCI I have observed that the problem of cell phones going off in class appears to be at least 8 - 11 times worse than at Davis. At Davis it is rare for a cell phone to go off in class.. I'd say it happens .6 times per lecture in classes of 30 to 60 persons, maybe twice in a really big lecture. In my classes here at UCI cell phones have gone off innumerous times. SEVERAL of these times the individual actually ANSWERED it and carried on a short conversation under their breath during class. During one oral presentation today the same girl's cell phone went off TWICE (and then someone elses did). Seriously.. wtf UCI? When I give my oral presentation if someone's cell phone goes off, I'm going to present them with some DEATH.
We also had our first quiz today. I appeared to have the only 100%. Hooray for summer school.
Then, because I'm a huge nerd, I checked out their student government offices, which I had stumbled upon the previous day while Matt Donley and I looked for the giant anteater (we found it in the basement. the taxidermied anteater is over 100 years old!!). And.. the student gov't Judicial Board has its own office!! Actually there are a lot more offices in their student gov't in general, and by offices I mean enclosed rooms for officers to execute their official duties in (and I ain't talkin cubicles, which Davis doesn't even have). And I asked if they're government advisor happened to be around during summer.. they were like "government advisor?" "yeah, like career staff person who advises student government?" "::blank stare::" omg its utopia!
And driving home today I pased two M1 Main Battle Tanks on the freeway, and what appeared to be a tank recovery vehicle (take a tank, remove the gun, put on giant tow hooks). Here's my artistic rendering of the sight.
Okay actually I drew that during math class in HS, and these tanks were on flatbed trucks.
Also apparently the most offensive thing ever printed in this LJ was my reference to Johnny Cash - Hut, as it illicited no less than two seperate anonymous commenters (1,2) to deride me and congradulate me for "knowing nothing about music."
Incidentally further investigation and consultation of others involved in the original incident strongly indicates that it WAS the Johnny Cash version that was played and the versions are appreciably different. If I could figure out how to host video I could show you a clip of it with pretty good audio so you could all decide for yourselves... but I'm not that crafty.
Anyway, if you don't have an lj and want to use the anonymous feature for what I believe its intended purpose is, please leave your name. If you truly want to remain anonymous and lob slander at myself and others at least do us the courtesy of checking back to read our crushing responses. Thankyou.

hmm I think I'll add a chick to the tank and therefore will have a "chicks with guns" picture that in principal beats all yours! (because the gun would be bigger)
