Stable Invariant Subspaces, Reflexivity, and Variables; How To Classify Friends as Clothing in a Postmodern World

So the other night Greg mentions he wants to wear more ties. He continues, "If I was a piece of clothing I think I'd be a tie." He was making an awful lot of sense to me at that moment. And what about me? a mitten. and Faery? pantyhose. This is not to say that she wears pantyhose, but it just seems accurate for some reason. It's brilliance lies in the simple fact that I could never be pantyhose and Greg could never be a Bill Cosby sweater.

So, in light of this discovery, we went through our mutual friends, set a few things straight and assigned each an article of clothing. Any issues? Take them up with Engert.

Jordan- football jersey
Scott- High-tops
Anna- a pork pie hat (this came to me this morning on the bus- Amazing!)
Corrie- a turtleneck
Erin- Boxer Briefs
Dana- a tank top

Jeez, is anyone else sick of photos of my cat?

Didn't think so...

And yes, she's totally on a leash. Much like I was at the tender age of 4. Seriously though, I required a leash through much of my childhood. Don't judge my parents for their inability to keep me near them at all times. For it is I who tried constantly to run away. Especially at supermarkets. But ESPECIALLY at Disneyworld.

Buyer Beware- this is a long one. RE: Static Electricity Research

This morning I set out to discover why I'm more static-y electric than anyone else in the whole world. Warning- findings may shock and disturb you. (haha puns!) (No, but they totally wont- but it might be good to know- (let me foreshadow for you- MENUSTRATION))

Also-so I dont risk sending myself to jail for 5 years for plagerism- thank you wikipedia, howstuffworks.com , and the lonely purveyor of the School for Champions website.

This is what happens. So, low moisture environments build up electromagnetic charges. (Ahem, winter + dryer = me as some sort of S.E. Superhero) When the humidity is high it coats surfaces with moisture which neutralizes the charges and you dont get shocked as much. Also something about chemical bonds but I wasn't being a very vigilent reader.

Most important thing first..it turns out I'm not going to spontaneously combust or anything. It's just a nusance.

A few of the causes of particulalry static-y people:
Not enough iron in your blood (not enough oxygen in these cells-check)
dry skin (check)
synthetic materials- especially underwear. (haha) (sometimes check)
drink too much carbonated beverage (check)
Menstruation (back to the low iron and dry skin) (sometimes check)

Solution- rub yourself with a wire coat hanger before you leave in the morning. It will neutralize you.

In Conclusion---(Highlights)
Someone asked School of Champions champion why her kitten sparked when she touched it. Will the kitten catch on fire?

Ans- Nope. Only if said kitten was sleeping in gasoline.
I smell a science experiment!
