— Kevin Deenihan at CalStuff is angling to take Rachel Klein’s Sex on Tuesday column now that the kitten has graduated. Toward this end, he pens a sample column:
Engineers don’t take Fluid Mechanics for the credits. (Well, yes they do, but it still applies.) These are men with a greater understanding of forces and weights than anyone else at Berkeley. Tired of being crushed by a too-heavy lover? Just murmur ‘Mass times velocity’ to an Engineer and he’ll understand instantly. Let him experiment; it’s what he does best. After he gets over his shyness and is given freedom to roam, you’ll be surprised by his imagination. But make very clear the parameters and expectations. EECS don’t expect projects to work correctly the [first] time, but they’ll try again if they need to.
Sign the boy up, and give him star treatment on the web.
