Possible Military Applications?
When adding up some numbers for a report, the song "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" came on. As I flipped through the pages, sometimes adding 1000 to the number in my head and sometimes 2000, the song totally threw me off. It was literally impossible for me to count by twos on odd numbers with it playing. The song sucks in general, but I wonder if the military could use this against terrorist accountants or something.

TV Blurb
Besides Ratchet & Clank III, my spare time (when Nina has gone to sleep) CRT viewing has mainly been Venture Brothers (brilliant, so much so it'll be cancelled shortly, I'm sure) and Amazing Race. This season of Amazing Race is pretty close to perfect reality TV. Last night, Heroism was continuing on in the face of hopelessness, just because you don't want to let your sister down.

The challenge was unrolling hay bales and getting the clue out of them. There were 217 round bales and only 20 clues. The sisters were the second team to arrive at the challenge, but last to leave. The blonde one unrolled, by Phil's estimation, over 100 bales, and clearly has some of the worst luck ever. It took her over 8 hrs. Rather than finishing the challenge, Phil met them in the dark field, once the last of the other teams had checked in at the pitstop.

It just goes to show you that one challenge can challenge can change everything. And I completely figured that the old people and the professional wrestlers were gone after their horrible performance at IKEA.

You should watch both of those shows. If for nothing else, to know who Brock Samson (voiced by Patrick Warburton) from Venture Brothers is.
