The Man With Ten Nipples

QUOTES OF THE DAY:

"You have tenacles coming off your face." "...I'm Cthulhu!"
"Sad video slot..."
"Aw, I can be your daddy...stroke-stroke, stroke-stroke..."
"Only four of my nipples lactate. Specifically, these four."
"He euthanized our robot Steve!"
"Look, Jesus is in that tree...it's Treesus!"

LISTENING TO: "Just Watch the Fireworks" by Jimmy Eat World

Perhaps I should explain the nipples first. Today, we had a class about biomedical engineering, and one of the demos was with an ECG machine. The teacher asked for a male volunteer, and my friend Chris got up. She turned to him and said, "I want you to take your shirt off." The counselor (Hart, he's cool) asked Chris, "Is that okay?" and Chris was like, "Hell yeah, man!" and took off his shirt like a Calvin Klein model. :P Then he got a bunch of snap electrodes stuck all over his chest, and they looked like little metal nipples. After the testing, he decided to keep them on, and actually wore them until at least after dinner. He was so proud... Then we played with the pulmonary machine thing to test oxygen-intake/carbon-dioxide-exhalation under certain conditions. Michael got to play the part of an obese person sleeping on his chest. He got to wear a lovely little elastic band around his chest and had his nose plugged up. It was quite amusing.

...Ladies.

Then we got to play with an EOG. Deanna had all these electrodes stuck on her face hooked up to a BioRadio, which sent signals about her eye movements to a computer program. It was actually pretty cool watching how her eyes moved when she was reading. Plus, ya know, she just looked so funny. xD



...Attractive humanoid beings.

Then we got to play with robots. That was awesome! Our robot was Steve. He's a little slow, but we love him (ir)regardless. We taught him what purple looks like, and set him loose to find it in the room. Poor little thing tried his very best, but just couldn't follow the paper. It's okay, Steve. You're in a better place now. *sniff* Dinner was three-quarters of a chocolate-chip pancake and Phish Food at Ben and Jerry's. I'm gonna gain about 20 pounds by the end of this camp. So much great food... I've already caught myself and other people calling the dorm hall "home" by accident. It feels like we've been here for so long... Well, I have another fun-filled day of engineering tomorrow later today. Good night, errybody!
