1. May I suggest http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/039331393...=books&v=glance if you really need a biography to read, a well written one about Feynman will be about as interesting as most fiction; a poorly written one is just crap.

2. I hate taxonomy (but I'm glad people there are peeps out there who do).

3. Be careful taking the extra speed, I know it is for the ADD or ADHD, but it is speed none the less. I suspect that some of your issues may predispose you to addictive habbits. --- just be careful.

4. As to the academic team guy, it is better to answer them all wrong and talk about how hard they were then to let you answer some right and show that your dick is bigger than his. He can't allow himself to be shown up by a freshman, much less one with a lisp who walks on his hand.

Because he was human

Because he had goodness

Because he was moral

They called him insane

-Neil Peart (RUSH)

Just to confuse matters...if you want an alternative biography to Feynman then i recommend

Alan Turing: the enigma of intelligence

which is really well written, is about a fascinating man who was also gay and written by a guy who's gay and also a mathematician. I couldn't put it down.

Go to bed earlier, AP! Sleep is better than coffee or stimulants for that brain of yours. Also for the body.

I agree that Turing was an interesting bloke

Thanks y'all, but my biography was assigned. It's about king Tut. It's still amazingly boring. Hopefully I'll be able to B.S. enough on the essay part of the test that my teacher will think I actually read it.

Also, yeah, I need more sleep. I'm going to bed in ten minutes. It's sad that I'm a teenager and I'm going to bed before nine. And Lib, why did you call me AP?

I think he got you mixed up with one of his patients

Oh, and assigning the whole class the same biography so that (s)he can base a test on it is plain wrong (lazy), as far as I am concerned.

AP = ancillus pueri = totally mangled Latin for slaveboy

It was from chat:

after you said you perved in Latin class, and then said "errare est humanis" (to err is human)

the natural response was: "pervare est ancilluspueris" (to perve is slaveboy)

You're a growing boy, & you work out your body & mind, so you definitely need the sleep. Sleep is when you build all those nice neural connections and muscles too. So make sure to get enough sleep & eventually you'll undergo a transformation similar to graham-cracker boy's.

Servuspueris = slaveboy

ancilluspueris = butlerboy

just so ya know.

ago gratias tibi!

cogito ergo sum. Or something like that.

I really enjoyed Feynman's autobiographical Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman.
