  1. That's WAY too much Bieber for first thing in the morning.

  5. I guess Bieber has a sense of humor.

  6. Heh.  It almost makes me not resent the wee child's huge success. 

    Almost.

    Bieber is hilarious and super-charming in all his interviews.  And (embarrassed shrug) that "Baby" song is really catchy...

    Nice.  I hope Ohio State takes the hint.

    Is it wrong that I would give "Dancing with the Tsars" a try?

    I gave a colloquium talk today, entitled:
    "Of Course it's True: A Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture"

    Math Bazinga!




    I'll go now.

    I went to college with a kid named Johns Hopkins (Mr. Cosmo will remember him from the St. Louis water polo days).  Direct descendant of the original, but (of course) many generations removed.  Extremely nice guy.  I suspect he would be both sad and relieved to know that he could drop the "s." 

    Incidentally, he is one of those people who it is impossible to Google.

    Fun fact: both University officials quoted in that piece had the S's dropped from their last names.  Also, for most of the day the frontpage of the school's website looked like this: http://webapps.jhu.edu/jhuniverse/featured/naming_announcement_april01/final.jpg

    That place makes me proud sometimes.

    And Isaac, you might want to call your classmate, as the namesake had no children.

  18. That is all kinds of awesome!

    Eh, maybe it was a family name, not direct.  I last spoke to him 20 years ago.  Mr. Cosmo will, at least, confirm that he had that unusual name.

  20. Phil and I attended college with a John S. Hopkins.
