Ze worm and other things

Since I'm not in the best of moods today, I think it's best not to reflect that and rant all over the squash court.

You know, I typed in 'cut a worm in half and live' into google, and saw the answers.yahoo.com question about whether it dies or not. This is how it went:

Q: When you're turning the garden and cut a worm in half...?
does it die or become two worms?

Best answer: for some reason I can't even picture you turning a garden

Other answers:
- um when you cut it in half . both sides will continue wriggling. the head section can grow a new tail if the vital organs arent affected but the tail section will continue wriggling untill its cells die and wont grow a head

-It can either die or become 2 worms. As long as you have not severed any major organs the head will produce a new tail. And the tail will produce a new head.

-The piece with the procreation part(saddle) will live on, only if you cut him in half 'through the balls' both sides die...

-it becomes 2 pieces of bait

-Great question, I think it dies.

-two

-it dies

Here is an amusing story that happened in Latin last week. At least, Shu-hua and I found it funny.

Our teacher said, "Do you all know your perfect tense markers?'
Us: You mean, -i, -isti, -it, -imus, -istis, -erunt?
Teacher: No, I mean letters that perfect tense verbs are likely to have.

He writes on the board v, x, s and u.

Teacher: You can make a mnemonic out of that. Everyone know what a mnemonic is? It helps you remember things easily. Actually, maybe I shouldn't tell you this, it's a bit rude. Go on, try to make a mnemonic out of it.
Us: ...xSUV...uvsx... *five minutes later everyone gives up*
Teacher: Got it yet? It's a bit rude.
Us: No.

He writes "V-Sux".

Us: *mixture of ... and cracking up*
Teacher: Actually, there are lots of exceptions to this rule. In fact, there are so many exceptions, you can just forget about it. Yes. Just forget I said that.
Us: *mixture of ... and cracking up*

-End-
