This summers winner is... silveradept!

First things first, cue up whatever victory fanfare/theme you have available and play it - I got the position I wanted for the summer! Hopefully, I'll have both the ones I want and be able to complete my summer work credit requirement. The position is headquartered in the Youth department, so I'm going to get to know whether it's really up to my caliber or not. Still, the awesome is great - I got the job! That gets rid of the last concern for summer. Now, all there is left is exams.

Lots of strange coincidences are actually quite probable. Things like the small-world phenomenon, the likelihood that if you have two dozen people, the probability is greater than 1/2 that two of them have the same birthday, those sorts of things. Combined with perhaps a little selective vision, some things that are easily explainable become quite marvellous. Worth trying out on your own to see the results. It's at least as entertaining as figuring out how to embarass a duck.

Another one of those things we knew but science seems to want to prove: Guys make worse decisions when exposed to sexual imagery. It's not something irreversible, but well, sex sells, yaknow.

Also, in many easy steps, how to write a scientific paper. It's the essence of paper-writing, really. And it's gotten me through this far. Hopefully, it'll keep working until I get the degree.

Ah, so you know intimately the wonders of writing these papers and have had plenty of practice at it. I'll probably have a good chuckle at the other papers, even though I've got a liberal arts degree.
