Sorry to hear that GG and JenB! *insert comforting smiley here*

You know what? I had a really rotten day. Enough to make me cry on my way home. There, I said it. So that's that. Awwww. {{hugs}} Tomorrow will be better.

JenButterfly- 09-10-2007

Thanks. What can I say besides there are some serious jerkwads in life that have no idea what common courtesy is. There are ways to handle things in life, yelling at somebody from across the room for a minor infraction is one of those childish things. On a good note, because I'm trying really hard not to be sour, I got a job.

extra_cat- 09-10-2007

That's great news! :D Is it what you were hoping for?

JenButterfly- 09-10-2007

Close enough. It's the same company, but since they're taking me on as an intern, the pay is a little bit less.

I went to endurance practice today and ran almost 3 miles! *keels over ded*

TrooperCam- 09-10-2007

What is endurance practice, do you do Cross Country?

Hail the Random- 09-10-2007

Nope. But one of the girls there had done cross country just like 10 minutes before we started running. Endurance practice is in my sense where you go and run for x long or x miles.

JenButterfly- 09-10-2007

I had to do that in 11th grade for part of an endurance test. I did three miles in 19 minutes. It was a bitch, but nessecary to be void of doing the four mile test.

If anyone is good at geometry, can you describe what this would look like? Point P is not in plane N. 3 lines through Point P intersect N in Points A, B, and C.

arizonamyrie- 09-11-2007

Point P is not in plane N. 3 lines through Point P intersect N in Points A, B, and C. You have a plane - like a piece of paper or a simple line, and that is called "Plane N." Draw that. Now, pick any spot that's not on Plane N and draw a dot. This is "Point P." Draw three dots on Plane N. These are "Point A," "Point B," and "Point C." Now, three lines "intersect" (or "connect") points A, B, C, and P. So, draw a line from Point A to P, Point B to P, and Point C to P. You should now have something that looks vaguely like some sort of a pyramid.

Hail the Random- 09-11-2007

Thanks AZ! How about: 3 vertical planes intersected in a point. (Again, since I asked for help, t'will be insanely obvious)

arizonamyrie- 09-11-2007

That's tougher this time. Is "plnes" suppoed to be "planed?"

Hail the Random- 09-11-2007

Oops. 'planes'

arizonamyrie- 09-11-2007

I would think that you would have to look at it from top-down. The point of intersection will be in the center, and the planes will branch off towards 12:00, 4:00, and 8:00. Or whichever three directions you would like. Pretty much, you have three things touching at the same place, and all three things are up and down (vertical). Here's the Wikipedia article on "Planes" if it helps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_(mathematics) I can't just be giving you the answers.
