After about the 15th beer, I pretty much am a genius.

He is one of a few people in the world who can draw approximations of fractals, the repeating geometric patterns that are building blocks of everything in the known universe, by hand.Fractals are not building blocks, atoms are. I don't know what it means to 'draw an approximation of a fractal'---I don't think the statement makes any sense.

Well, yeah ... if you build your circles out of planks.

In the sense that fractal equations are nowhere differentiable... they do get rather atom-like.

I think my nose bled as I was typing that post.

The brain is not the mind. The brain is a tool of the mind, kind of like the frequency generator manipulated by someone desiring to produce electromagnetic waves.

And mine bled reading it.
We only covered a little bit of higher math and physics in culinary school.
I'm much better equipped by practical training to make a Bearnaise sauce, or do a vasectomy on your brother-in-law.

Getting straight lines means you walk the Planck.

What did the mountain man say to the cross country bicyclist when his bike broke down and he asked to spend the night?
He told the man it was just fine, and good timing, because that night there was going to be wild happenings, plenty of hard drinking, hard sex, hard fighting, and hard partying, the young man thought that was pretty exciting and asked the mountain man how man people were going to show up, and the mountain man said, well, it’s just gonna be me and you boy.

Ya know... I spent 2 years living the mid 1800s mountain man lifestyle without running water, commercial electricity...
I never had a bicyclist stop by, but 2 wild turkeys that camped out on my front porch wound up just a bunch of feathers.....

Reminds me of Colonel Flagg on MASH. He looks at a dress wearing Klinger and says up close your a man. Klinger says, “Far away too.”

I’m bald but Jason and I share the same surname, so I’m farther along. Algebra was my favorite subject. I took it five times.

Of course they don’t. And they are pretty darned depressed over that.

Fractals in the front, Pythagoras in the back.
