we were talking about random stuff at work, and of course, i mentioned that 17 is the most random number. to my surprise, someone agreed, and asked if i had "read that article". so, here it is, a poll of 347 people, asking them to pick a random number:

So I just received a mail from Blue Cross/Blue Shield addressed to "Joia Oia".
they've been sending me these 'not-a-bill's for several years, and this is the first time they screwed my name up...

I suppose I should thank whomever was working desk a couple of days ago and could figure out that it should be forwarded to me.
(Not that I think there's any alum with last name Oia)

Good luck with finals everybody!

I thought I would post something completely random. Maybe I'll post all "I've made cookies" announcements here and then keep them for the next 6 months until someone comes across it.

Anywho, I'm stuck at desk listening to a commercial for "one-a-day men's for the man in my life" and watching Enterprise which has to be the absolute worse series of Star Trek in the world.

i3 was finished today. You should watch it if you haven't.

Happy New Random Year!

Random New Year?

There is now a community called quotes_random for amusing things people say.

did you all realize there is a mailinglist for random alums on the infinite connection? Neither did I, until today. And neither did a lot of people, probably, since there are only 7 of us on the list. Sign up! Invite friends! (note: you need to be logged in to the infinite connection to access this link)

So, I've noticed that a good amount of people associate colors w/various items in their heads.
I really really like colors. (especially blue ones)
And I like polls.

Driving through Oklahoma today I noticed an exit sign with the speed limit of 17mph. I wanted to take a picture but it went by too fast... and you can't really turn around on the highway. They also had signs saying the fine for failure to pay a toll was $117.
