First question for my next math test
On the next math exam, expect the following question:
“If a container of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats weighing 900 grams falls 1 meter (due to gravity), onto a solid surface, how much of a mess will it make? Assume that the container has a lid, albeit poorly fitting.”
No need to show your calculations, unless you enjoy such activity. I already have the answer.
It’s early; I have the rest of the day to come up with other anecdotal queries.
Big day in the US for the next president takes place. Forget all that hoopla involving close to two hundred million interested passersby. The Electoral College, all 370 of them, get to cast their ballots (counted separately from the “muggles”). Although there is a token requirement that the outcome resemble the earlier effort, no law prevents the “faithless electors” as they are known, from voting as they wish. I stand in amazement that a nation with such lofty ideals can turn this into the equivalent of a middle school runoff. Yes, there are people who announce that they intend to vote for “4 more years”, as if insanity was its own excuse.
And in Canada, the first doses of the Pfizer vaccine were unloaded from aircraft yesterday. A limited production run, to distributed among those “most in need of Thy mercy”. For the record, I didn’t make the short list, so I will continue to mask up and hide at home. Getting used to the idea. I mean, think about how I no longer need to colour-coordinate my wardrobe with those around me.
