Mischievous Murph

A while ago I started to write notes instead of signing the receit when you use a store credit card machine.  A cute girl write my number.  Not so pretty one - David or Isaac.  Sometimes draw a dinosaur.  For a particullary grumpy clerk I wrote Macbeth's Soliloquy.  Gotta keep them guessing.  Anyway, I got a phone call from a number I didn't recognize, and they told me I left them my number.  Oops.

I had to give a presentation about our research to Dr. Worbel, DHS Research Program Manager. I compared one of our detectors to "saying boo to the goose", and later used the phrase "turmegatroid".

Two apartments down there is a group of guys who have there christmas lights spell out Tennessee.  After a football game in the early fall these guys threw an empty bottle at me because they thought I was wearing an Alabama shirt (hatred between UT and Alabama I guess?) when it was my CMU shirt (colours are the same).  So I went over late one night (coming back from the library) and redid their lights to read 'Alabama Rocks'.  They haven't noticed yet.

I am also being setup for stealing a horse.  I may or may not be responsible for this.  I am responsible for ripping its leg off, but David provoked me. At least it might go to heaven. Enough horsing around!

Unrelated to these escapades, I am now probably on the FBI's watch list.  RSICC thought I lost my simulation code package - it is export controlled.  I really don't know why; you can get the same results from GEANT4.
