ZOMG
HOLY CRAP.
MIND HAS BEEN BLOWN.
PERSPECTIVE HAS BEEN CHANGED.
PANTS ARE OFF.
THAT LAST STATEMENT IS IRRELEVANT.
You guys probably all already knew this ‘cause you’re smarter than me, but I just learned that the inflection points of the normal distribution occur at the first standard deviation above and below the mean.
HOLY CRAP.
Inflection points, remember, are the points on a curve where the concavity changes (f’’(x) = 0).
I’m not quite sure why that’s a significant thing because I don’t think I’m quite at the math level I need to be to understand it, but I’m pretty sure that it’s a significant thing. Either way, VERY COOL.
I’mma go screw around with calculus now.
Freaking love calculus.
HOLLY CARP IS REAL
Holly Carp now has a Facebook. And in case you weren’t there and are wondering what the hell I’m talking about and what the big deal is, Holly Carp is an individual Maggie and I discovered on the night before the band trip down to Boise, the night we stayed up all night and were IM-ing each other while sitting right next to each other.
And in case you’re not on Facebook and want to know of this wonderful being, here is her profile:

Interests: philosophy, contact sports, optometry, humans’ depletion of natural resources and how we’re all screwed, Nebraska, the “Holly Carp Is Real” Campaign, WSU and their fascination with large cats, WSU and their placement of the cattle breeding pen in close proximity to the captive bear area, volleyball, other carp.

About Me: I am Holly Carp. I am real. I type in all-caps because I’m just that important. I enjoy long walks on the beach, or preferably in the water itself, me being a carp and all.
I am all-knowing and all-powerful. My powers of logic and deduction astonish even the most intelligent of men, including Stephen Hawking, one of many whom I have single-handedly beat at swimming.
I won the gold medal in Awesome in the first Olympic games.
I alone built five miles of the Great Wall of China.
I fantasize nightly of a schooner whose love I was lucky enough to possess one lonely night when the waters were still and our hearts were a-flutter with true love.
I’m looking to find a man of similar interests and who has big gills. Seriously though, gill size doesn’t matter. But I’d like his to be big.
Like, huge.
Seriously.
I also noticed a few minutes ago that in the religious views is typed, “I worship cod,” which rhymes nicely with “I worship god.”
I’m funny.
