The Skirtmanwarrior Saga: February 2010
http://danielcstarr.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Adventure - Insight - Music - Bikes - Beer. Friday, February 26, 2010. Physics Problem of the Week. So I'm reading the current Dick Tracy. In the wake of the blast, several questions came up:. Why would someone pay two million bucks for a Stradivarius, when a cheap high-school orchestra violin would have exploded just as well? Why is there and embassy in Naperville? What are those two big hand-like things sticking out of the pool during the "FLOOOOM! It's a pretty interesting molecule, with a structure k...

The Skirtmanwarrior Saga: January 2010
http://danielcstarr.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Adventure - Insight - Music - Bikes - Beer. Saturday, January 23, 2010. What They've Been Doing In Area 51. Well, the cat's out of the bag: the US Air Force is traveling to other planets on a routine basis.

So, it's a bit of sci-fi, a bit of artistic license, perhaps? Somehow, this makes me feel better about the military budget. ...

Bad news: being "nominated" for a competition just means I did the paperwork correctly.

(Aww.). This third thing is wh...

Daniel C. Starr. Adventure - Insight - Music - Bikes - Beer. Monday, October 6, 2008. This is Why We Love Software. In this election season, we're pretty used to seeing candidates and their supporters stating utter absurdities as if they were obvious facts, on the order of "the sun comes up in the morning." But as good as the politicos are at deadpanning insanity, they don't begin to compare to a computer. Here, two bits of absurdity I found in the last few days. Slight chance of nothing? Daniel C. S...
