- Pocky already has the chocolate on it - YanYan is the sticks with dip.
- When cleaning out my desk, I found an old Chipotle menu - probably from when they first opened in College Park a few years back. The Vegetarian Burrito is listed as 4.75, not 4.50. The Carnitas is 5.50.

- Busch Gardens Williamsburg, or, as it is now known, Busch Gardens Europe, is about 250 acres, not 500. I'd like to point out that a square mile is 640 acres, and that Disney World covers slightly more than 47 square miles - but the Magic Kingdom only covers 107 acres.
- I got 'I Ran' confused with 'Space Age Love Song'. 'I Ran's' first line is: "I walked along the avenue."
- Golden Slumbers is on Abbey Road. I'm not sure I've ever actually owned Abbey Road - just a couple of the collections, Sgt. Pepper and the white album. Also, I'm unable to find my copy of the I Am Sam soundtrack, so I can't get to hear Ben Folds' version, either.
- The micromirrors in a standard HP DLP chip change direction approximately 120 times per second.

- The recent domestic slavery case involved people from Nigeria.
- Almost 40,000 Americans die a year in car crashes. By comparison, 600,000 Americans died of heart disease in 2002.
- Also, the CDC says suicide is a little less than twice as likely as homicide, not four times as I previously stated. Still, I think suicide is underreported. Also, kids really skew this statistic... Aparently, it doesn't occur to you that suicide is an option until you are 14. No one kills people between the ages of 5 and 14, so it sort of balances out.
- Also, the time I stated at lunch was my best time from McLean to College Park, not Dulles to College Park. I think that adds another ten minutes or so.
