(OT) T-1 hour till my defense

[der_kluge]

It's probably too late, but if you quote John Edwards, or Deepak Chopra in your dissertation, you might want to reschedule it.

It is titled "Classical and Quantum Aspects of Cosmology"

you are so screwed, i have read a few issues of cosmo, and there ain't nothing in there about quantum anything.



good luck bolen

 

[orbitalfreak]

I hate off topic threads but this is kinda big for me

I will defend my doctoral dissertation in one hour.

It is titled "Classical and Quantum Aspects of Cosmology"

Good luck!

 

[Mark]

Congrats, bolen! I hope it went well!

 

[Mark Chance]

Good luck. Just don't utter the phrase "I think..." instead use "I believe..." Tip from my wife. But it probably won't come up anyway.

Yeah. God forbid someone defending a doctoral dissertation thinks.

Oh, and knock 'em dead! Metaphorically, that is.

 

[Painfully]

Can I get a complementary copy of that for my wizard's library? I'd hate to think he's falling behind on his knowledge of modern cosmologies and stuff.

 

[Robbert Raets]

Albert: I think the idea is you don't know whether it's alive or dead until you look.
DEATH: THINGS WILL HAVE COME TO A PRETTY PASS, ALBERT, WHEN I DO NOT KNOW WHETHER SOMETHING IS ALIVE OR DEAD WITHOUT LOOKING.
Albert: Er- I think it's supposed to the act of looking that kills it, master.
Death managed to look hurt.
DEATH: ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT THE KITTEN WILL DIE JUST BY MY LOOKING AT IT?
Albert: Not quite, sir-
DEATH: IT'S NOT AS THOUGH I MAKE FACES OR ANYTHING.
-From "The Last Hero"

*Laughs hysterically in a shrilly voice*

I've got to get my hands on that book!

EDIT: Oh, and good luck to bolen on that disser-train-something, of course!!

Yeah. God forbid someone defending a doctoral dissertation thinks.

Oh, and knock 'em dead! Metaphorically, that is.

"I think" is a weaker statement than "I believe".

 

[Mark Chance]

"I think" is a weaker statement than "I believe".

If you think so.

 

[Mark]

If you think so.

I believe him...
