Wait, I have a degree in Physics. You have to plug it in? Well NO WONDER!

I was tired of "loose cable" so I canceled it.
But thanks to the internet, I don't miss it...

Oh, yeah? Then why did I read this article before it was blogged, then?...

The only thing ever confirmed to move faster than light was gossip.

We came up with a machine that wuz 112 percent efficient ... but our teacher wouldn't let us apply for a patent ...

Yah, we gnu that ... after our teacher goggled in disbelief, we showed him our numbers ... REALLY primitive equipment, so we had a good chuckle ...

There once was a lady named Bright
Whose speed was much faster than light.
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned on the previous night.
