I'd like to share with you the most ominous quote in history of, well, history. It was originally spoken by Dr. Robert Oppenheimer at the time of the Trinity test (the Trinity test was the wold's first detonation of a nuclear weapon, Dr. Oppenheimer was the weapon's chief architect). He said, quoting the Vishnu from the Hindu scripture of Bhagavad-Gita:
I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.
Chills the blood, does it not?

Sugar me gumdrops, lass. Can't you imagine anything better to say?
And now, I'd like to share with you the Secret Of The Universe. Listen carefully, for I shall say this only once. All can be comprehended by absorbing the chthonic wisdom in this sentence:
Colorless green ideas sleep furiously.
Ponder it.

Wait a second... How can an idea be BOTH colorless AND green?!
That doesn't make sense!

I'll be actually serious *gasp* for a while and answer:
The sentence I quoted was invented by Noam Chomsky[1] as an example of a sentence that, while syntactically correct has no meaning whatsoever. I, being silly as I am, have always found the sentece to be strangely compelling.
And now back to plain old run-of-the-mill random posting:
Identify the writer and the poem:
When the stars threw down their spears, And watered heaven with their tears, Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Always has been one of my favourites.
[1]Really soopuh important linguist dude.

Which leads us to the question:
If 2+2=pizza how much is 3+3?
3+3=2+1+2+1 3+3=2+2+1+1 3+3=pizza+1+1 3+3=pizza+2+2-1-1 3+3=pizza+pizza-(1+1) 3+3=2pizza-1/2(2+2) 3+3=2pizza-1/2pizza 3+3=3/2pizza
Therefore 3+3=3/2pizza for all values of pizza. Quod Erat Demonstrandum.
And thus pizzamathics was born.

It makes a much sense as 2+3=17.
