\"May-DecemberI got a nice note from someone today asking if I had run off with a 16-year old or something like that.<\/p>\n

It’s nice to be missed.<\/p>\n

While the idea is intriguing, the answer is much more boring than that.<\/p>\n

I went back to school.<\/p>\n

At my age.
\nI must be stupid.<\/p>\n

To prove it, here’s a bit of the gibberish I’m supposed to understand:<\/p>\n

“Another example is given by Zp star for p prime. If p is prime, then Z*p is cyclic (of order p-1). So remember that Zp star is the multiplicative group, modular p. And if P is prime, then this contains every element from 1 to p-1. So this gives an example of a cyclic group. Now it’s easy to be confused here because p is prime, but the order of the group Zp star is not prime, it’s in fact, p-1 which for p greater than 3 will not be a prime. So this case is not covered by the previous theorem.”<\/em><\/p>\n

I’m almost done.
\nWith a 3.33 (B+) grade point average.<\/p>\n

This proves the theory that guessing is a viable form of taking a test.<\/p>\n

Not bad for not having any idea what the hell the professor talked about.<\/p>\n

But he’s a grumpy guy so I like him.<\/p>\n

I’ll be back.
\nSoon.<\/p>\n
