After Sunday, I finally had some time to check out movies I missed. Up in the Air is good, but not a must watch. Or perhaps, I’m not good at reviewing movies. Harold and Kumar: Escape From Guantanamo Bay was funny, but I enjoyed the White Castle installment more. The clever poem that Kal (Kalpen Modi, a.k.a. Kal Penn) sings to win his love at the end was very impressive. Probably its the geek in me that loved it, but you should read it as well.<\/p>\n
\n\nI\u2019m sure that I will always be
\nA lonely number like root three<\/p>\n
The three is all that\u2019s good and right,
\nWhy must my three keep out of sight
\nBeneath the vicious square root sign,
\nI wish instead I were a nine<\/p>\n
For nine could thwart this evil trick,
\nwith just some quick arithmetic<\/p>\n
I know I\u2019ll never see the sun, as 1.7321
\nSuch is my reality, a sad irrationality<\/p>\n
When hark! What is this I see,
\nAnother square root of a three<\/p>\n
As quietly co-waltzing by,
\nTogether now we multiply
\nTo form a number we prefer,
\nRejoicing as an integer<\/p>\n
We break free from our mortal bonds
\nWith the wave of magic wands<\/p>\n
Our square root signs become unglued
\nYour love for me has been renewed<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
