well, 17/0 was undefined or so I thought
but, how do you check if your division was right in a problem? you multiply
for example
21/3 = 7, right? so then 7*3 = 21, using this method of proof:
17/0 = 17 because for it to remain consistent with the multiplication theory:
0*17 has to equal 17, same with 15/0=15, 4/0=4, etc. I dont think the professor meant for that to be used to prove something else, just one of those deals that makes you think. he's good at that, and he makes awesome references throught the class, kinda like an episode of family guy

heh, cool
kinda fun to think about if you put your logic there into more tangible terms
21 beers, split 3 ways. 7 beers drank per person
17 beers, split 0 ways. the 17 beers still exist, but no one drinks them

not much, debating what to do for the rest of the day.
my best friend left for london today, she's gonna be gone for three months. I was gonna go over to brian's at some point to make sure he ain't too depressed (her bf and a friend of mine as well)
after that, its homework and then boozification lol

But, to tell the truth, if my gf or I were to separate for that long, I would be down too. Just talk to him from time to time and do stuff with him so he distracts a little.Hi Glenn!

Well, I've been very busy this week. Last Saturday I worked on my brother in law's Aerio SX broken engine mounts and started removing parts on the Mustang to replace the leaking valve cover gaskets. On Monday I went with my gf to run some errands and to get a health certification for work. Tuesday I continued washing the parts of the Mustang. Today I went again w my darling to pick up the health certs. and enjoy some time together.
We had breakfast, and walked around town and bought her a gift for the new job. Then I went home and started working on the Stang again. But when I almost was finished, my old back injury began to bug me again. 
I took my meds and they make me feel high!
I hope that tomorrow I fire it up
I'll post pics when I can. It's looking waaaaay better than before.

Yeah, we're talkin about cars right now, shifter for his galaxie. plus they also sort of separated right before the study abroad and because of it. long distance is the suck, so they aren't really together anymore.
Also, its more than a bit tough to pretend to be fine and help him out when I'm as down as I am. She's honestly the best friend I ever had, and I guess I'm spoiled in that I'm used to seeing her at least once a week or more. This will be an interesting few months. So I'm pretty much surrounding myself with schoolwork and that bike project to keep my mind off of things
and Hey Glenn

thats the pits. I hope it gets better soon, and that the Stang is up and running again equally soon

Thanks bro!
I've seen the thread of your bike and you've done a lot to it in a few days.

AGAIN?!
I don't mind this one, as terrible as it is its kinda funny. I once wrote a paper about how Britain conquering India was the best thing to ever happen to it, and the revolution was one of the worst, because they kicked out the people who made it a better place.
Racism and unfair treatment of people aside, India would be more of a $***hole today than it already is if it weren't for the Brits
