Valentine's was one of the best I've had yet, even if I was single. I started off the day by handing out free cookies and free hugs as part of a student group I'm in, to try and make single people's day a little brighter. Then my professor gave out jolly ranchers in my number theory class, and then I got a bunch of giant heart shaped cookies from Gator D which they make every Valentine's Day. Then a friend came over to eat some more cookies and hang out. Then I saw Breakfast at Tiffany's with my two best friends and a few other friends, and had some free muffins and bagels ("Breakfast" at Tiffany's. Hooray for student activities fees).

Here's a really interesting article on autistic savants and one of them who can describe how he can multiply huge numbers together in an instant, or recall pi to 22,514 decimal places. All by seeing numbers as shapes or colors instead of just "numbers". Math without having to think, now that's something that would be cool to have.

Sometimes you just really wonder about people.

When I read these stories about modern medicine being able to save babies born 13 weeks premature, I really have to ask how abortion advocates can still justify it being "only a blob". It just doesn't add up quite right.
