In a Season 1 Episode of House M.D., "Babies & Bath Water", Dr. House tells why he wouldn't hire the young physician intern with an Asian tattoo on his wrist:

House: You're so hired

Intern: Really?

House: Not a chance.

Intern: Why?

House: Tattoo

Intern: Wow. I thought you would be the last person to have a problem with noncomformity.

House: nonconfirmity....right. I can't remember the last time I saw a twenty something kid with a tattoo of an Asian letter on his arms. You are one wicked freethinker.

You want to be a rebel? Stop being cool. Wear a pocket protector like he does (points to Dr. Wilson), get a haircut.

Like the Asian kids who don't leave the library for 20-hour stretches. They're the ones who don't care what you think. Sayonara. (dismisses the poor long haired rocker intern)

Dr. Wilson: So should I go through the resumes looking for Asian names?

House: Actually, the Asian kids are probaly just responding to parental pressure, but my point is still valid.

Nurse friend( 04:14:38): my hero....

Pronouncing a baby dead SUCKS. 

Right after class yesterday, I checked my cell phone and found 6 new text messages in my inbox:

Why are you not picking up your phone? 8:49pm 9/19/06


If you don't pick up your phone I'm going to run up your bill with all my text messages 8:51pm 9/19/06

Hummer H2

Just looking at this thing screams vanity and "I want attention".

HOWEVER....

I found this narrow downhill path at the Gospel Camp site, and I was very curious if the Hummer can live up to its off-road macho prowness. The owner of the campsite said he actually got his 4x4 pickup truck stuck in there.

Thus, here I go.

Although its hard to see in this picture, the Hummer is on a decline (nearly 45 degrees), and the floor was muddy from the rain.

Going back up was more fun. And scary. I nearly got stuck! The wheels were spinning like crazy. After putting the Hummer in 4Low Locked however, we eventually got out of the mud.

Yes, I got it dirty trying to get out.

Conclusion: The Hummer H2 is very capable and I did some really dumb things in effort to test its off-road toughness. So its not just looks under that Jeep-stolen grille. However, this is still very much a vanity machine. Green thumb hippies would have eaten me alive!

Other test drivers:

Jerry: " Wow. Now I feel manly" (sarcasm)

Anna: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA this is so much fun HAHAHAHAHA"

Daniel: "oooo what a experience" (sarcasm)

And to think, I am going to be the best man at his wedding.

Rob: "Lets go out there and save the world, Charlie!"

Me: "Oh yeah? Well who's gonna save us?!"

Supervisor: "I will"
