[Wyldewode]

I'm waiting to be entertained. Actually, I'm waiting to go eat lunch. I think it will be some time in the next 20 minutes. I'm quite hungry.

[MsMary]

Those muppets have kind of mean expressions on their faces.

[Wyldewode]

I have now had a tuna wrap, so I am much happier.

Simpson: Is this chicken what I have, or is it fish? I know it’s tuna, but it says Chicken. By the sea. Is that stupid?
[Long pause]
Simpson: What? Don’t make fun of me right now. I’m not in the mood.
Lachey: You act like you’ve never had tuna before.
Simpson: I’ve had tuna fish, like, sandwiches and stuff, like this.
Lachey: Baby, you and I have eaten tuna like this before.
Simpson: Why is it called "Chicken by the Sea"? Or "in the Sea"?
Lachey: "Chicken of the Sea" is the brand.
Simpson: Oh.
Lachey: You know, 'cause a lot of people eat tuna, it's like a lot of people eat chicken?
Simpson: Oh. I understand now. I read it wrong.

[Wyldewode]

I totally think she made that up. *nods*

WHY PARENTS DRINK:

A boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not phoned in sick one day.
Having an urgent problem with one of the main computers,
he dialed the employee's home phone number and was greeted with a child's whisper.

"Hello."

"Is your daddy home?" he asked.

"Yes," whispered the small voice.

"May I talk with him?"

The child whispered, "No."

Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is your Mommy there?"

"Yes."

"May I talk with her?"

Again the small voice whispered, No."

Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message,
the boss asked, "Is anybody else there?"

"Yes," whispered the child, "a policeman."

Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home,
the boss asked, "May I speak with the policeman?"

"No, he's busy", whispered the child.

"Busy doing what?"

"Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman," came the whispered answer.

Growing more worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the earpiece on the phone,
the boss asked, "What is that noise?"

"A helicopter" answered the whispering voice.

"What is going on there?" demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.

Again, whispering, the child answered,
"The search team just landed the helicopter."

Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss asked, "What are
they searching for?"

Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle: "Me!"

Be entertained. For soon, I shall have all your bandwidth! MUA HA HA!

[Wyldewode]

I think you've used the entire bandwidth of a small country. The good news is that several of those were highly entertaining.

Conceptually, sparsity corresponds to systems which are loosely coupled. Consider a line of balls connected by springs from one to the next; this is a sparse system. By contrast, if the same line of balls had springs connecting every ball to every other ball, the system would be represented by a dense matrix. The concept of sparsity is useful in combinatorics and application areas such as network theory, of a low density of significant data or connections.

[MsMary]

That is incomprehensible.

To me, anyway.

Hmm, I've played a card game called asshole. Gimmick is you have the winner and 2nd to win take the best cards from the worst two players of the previous round.

I've played that game, although, I've never heard it referred to as asshole.
I've known it as both Communism and Daifugo (I may have spelled that wrong, it's Japanese.)

[sgt.null]

That is incomprehensible.

To me, anyway.

Begrifflich entspricht sparsity Systemen, die lose verbunden werden. Betrachten Sie eine Linie der Kugeln, die bis zum Frühlingen von einem an das folgende angeschlossen werden; dieses ist ein spärliches System. Durch Kontrast wenn die gleiche Linie der Kugeln Frühlinge hatte, jede Kugel an jede andere Kugel anzuschließen, würde das System durch eine dichte Matrix dargestellt. Das Konzept von sparsity ist in der Kombinatorik und in den Verwendungsgebieten wie Netztheorie, einer niedrigen Dichte der bedeutenden Daten oder der Anschlüsse nützlich.

- better?

[MsMary]

Worse yet.
