Diamonds and Perl

So I'm programming Perl for fun... you know what that means. Good Stephanie has won.

I'm changing my major to Bioinformatics. Oh noes my school doesn't have a Bioinformatics program. What ever shall I do~? Blow this popsicle stand.

To be continued...


I bought a book the other day from a store that went out of business. It's an etiquette book written in the 50s. Oh ho ho ho it's sooo hilarious.

For instance:

"It is only human for a man to want his secretary to be neat, attractive, and, if possible, pretty. He has to look at her all day long. But the more attractive she is, the more, for his own and her protection, he must treat her with careful, polite objectivity."

Hehehe. This book is 738 pages long. I picked it up in the store thinking it was either a dictionary or a bible.

"If the family breakfasts weekend mornings in dressing gowns, pajamas, nightgowns, you are free to do so too. But don't take the informality so much to heart that you fail to comb your hair, wash your face and teeth, and generally make yourself attractive. No woman should appear too negligee or with her hair unarranged and her face unmade-up, if she's in the habit of using make-up - and most of us are."

And it goes on and on. Solid gold.
