Snow Blind

This is a shokingly addictive video. Got a hankering to hear it again and thought I might as well post it for all to share. Perfect timing in celebration for the WSOP going on right now.

Stolen from Probability’s blog.

Yeah, I stole it. I’m not gonna pretend that the amount of original thought on the internet isn’t rapidly approaching zero. In fact, I’m very certain it’s a function of the relationship between the amount of content on the internet to the amount that is original. You know, something like f(x)=1/x. At least I admit it.

Ok. I’m being a bit over dramatic. While not that bad, sometimes it feels like it. Haven’t felt much like posting lately, but that’s going away.

More to come. I’m sure you are all eagerly waiting with bated breath.

Let me preface this with: I have a very intelligent wife. Some concepts just elude her grasp of understanding. Like the discussion we had on why 4 wheel drive doesn’t make it any easier to stop even though that it being called 4 wheel DRIVE and not 4 wheel STOP, should have given her a clue.

But I thought this conversation was amusing anyway – even though it will likely end up getting me in trouble, I think it may be worth it.

Me: Street view of our house
Amy: why is your truck there?
Me: what do you mean?
Me: that’s our house
Amy: i know-but isn’t it like a constant satellite image?
Me: yes, satellites are flying around at street level constantly taking pictures of our house
Amy: they have zoom
Me: they have detailed zoom that can take a 90 degree angle shot?
Amy: cool, huh?
Me: earth called, it would like you to come back now

We’ll see what kind of backlash comes from this. If I don’t live through it, I hope you enjoy it as my last gift to my half dozen or so readers.

Funny (disturbing???) thing is, I actually made this same joke to my wife like a month ago.
