Oh no, I fully agree. But being given money and truly earning the money are very different. He just needs to remember, money won't always come as easily as it does now for him.

Nick, i have to disagree, i hava a friend, when we were younger used to get $50 /week allowance i got $5

when he grew up he worked for his Dad, today he is a billionaire, and never put in a hard days work, it does happen

The physical therapist thinks its a twisted up urethra causing the pain. Oddly the pain had stopped for several days until yesterday. Going to the gastro in an hour to make sure its nothing in that vein of medicine causing the pain.

Thanks for your concern.

I have a 89Plat... works fine But I have always used TI's so it was prolly a force of habit.

no clue Will, when i built the roof on my gazebo i did a chalk outline on the driveway and measured it by hand

Hey Omar, not much going on really. Just back reading and relaxing before I go to sleep in a while.

Hmm.....Just read what Raz's "stupid camp" actually was. It was essentially a Scout camp. I'm rather offended that he called it "stupid camp". When I was his age and in Scouts, I learn LOTS of skills and such that have benifited me at various times in my life thus far. .....Some kids......

i wish i had know that, I would have had a talk with him, I was a Scoutmaster and I'm still a Crew Leader, my sons a life scout but just turned 18 but didnt make Eagle in time so hes going for Ranger in Venturing which i started a crew 3 years ago.

Hey Tom:

Eli Manning said he is on Tom Bradys level The wobbler seriously thinks that. Im not a pats fan by far but that statement had me laughing.

Obviously, you're not nerdy enough. How sad, since nerds rule the world, or, at least, the world's money.

The HP 50g is Hewlett-Packard's current top-of-the-line calculator. See it here: http://www.shopping.hp​.com …orefronts/F2229​AA%2523ABA

RPN (Reverse Polish Notation) is a type of logic used to perform operations on calculators and computers. The other type of logic used by calculator is Algebraic notation. Most HP calculators use RPN, especially the more expensive ones. The HP 50g can use either.

With Algebraic notation (also known as infix notation), used by Texas Instruments, Casio, Sharp, and some HP calculators, problems are entered as they would be written. While this sounds intuitive, it requires the operator to keep track of priorities, parentheses, and intermediate values. Many a complex problem has failed, or worse, produced erroneous results, because an operator got a priority wrong or failed to close a parenthesis.

RPN (also called postfix notation) has no such requirements. It is an outgrowth of a system of logic developed by Jan Lukasiewicz in the 1920s. This system of logic was called Polish Notation (in honor of Lukasiewicz), and is formally known as prefix notation. With Polish notation, you enter the operators first and then the operands (hence: prefix).

With RPN, you enter the operands first, and then the operators (hence: postfix). This completely does away with priorities, parentheses, and other artificial structures, and uses the machine's stack to automatically keep track of intermediate values. This is the way a machine thinks, making RPN a natural system for computers, and calculators, which are just small computers.

Algebraic notation, the way problems are solve with pencil and paper, mixes operands and operators (hence: infix). This does not lend itself to machine operation. Calculators and computers that use algebraic notation actually use some form of translation system to allow the machine to do the actual operations in an RPN-like structure. They have to, since machines are stack oriented by their very nature.

People, like myself, who learned to program machines at their most basic levels (machine language and Assembly), naturally gravitate towards RPN in their choice of calculators. It just makes more sense.

See? Nerds give nerdy responses. I freely admit that.

But then, is that any worse than the Jock responses put here by those who think with their gonads? You know: guns, bikes, football (any variety), etc.

Good machine. But as I said, I just prefer RPN.

Yeah I threw some comments up on ESPN's NFC East blog (username: CorgiCowboy) already about that silliness.

One of my fantasy leagues this year has the ESPN writer (Dan Graziano) for the NFC East blog in it. He defended the comments Eli made, so I gave him some fair criticism and some trash-talking, since I play against him week 1.
