Brought to you by the letters V and J

Today, I am working on deriving an adaptation to a learning algorithm. In the derivation, the letter j is an index for trials, and the letter v is the index for the voxel (like pixel, but volume element instead). What does this mean? I have written "vj" as a subscript many many times. Every time I write it, I think fondly of this weekend, when I was having much more fun than I am now. This derivation is definitely NOT a party in my ______. Discuss how to spell the word that fills in the blank.

I saw this in the grocery store...

Maybe someone should write to them to see if they'll sponsor the team?
Things I learned when moving to Harrisburg:

5. How many people does it take to pack a moving truck? 3 1-Maria Bazjek to crawl into tiny spaces and organize boxes. 2-The Nuge to supervise, give orders, and put boxes and furniture together as though they were puzzle pieces. 3-Dave Galati to carry heavy things, take things apart, and re-organize the Nuge's truck. I did nothing. Seriously.

4. Mark thinks I'm weak. On more then one occasion, while trying to help move furniture, he said " Why don't you go get Nuge or Jenn Bakel to help me?" What did I do instead? I made a pizza run. *sigh*

3. A dozen hush puppies cost $1.00.

2. Hush Puppies don't taste as good reheated in the morning.

1. Pounce isn't in Harrisburg.
