I Want a White Vest! (Spoiler alert!)

I went to see Diehard 4.0 tonight. I will not name my accomplices for fear of embarassing them. Ach ,what the hell, it was Eduardi and Sam who tempted me to miss one of Gron's lectures. (Sorry Gron!!!) It was only an optional lecture:-)

It was a nice treat and it felt good to go out of CERN for a couple of hours. As much as i enjoy being here and being exposed to all the different Physics, it is good to remember that there is more to the world.

Diehard 4.0 was completely bonkers and a brilliant laugh!!! I think John McClane must be the world's greatest Physicist, (Had to slip that in) as he can fire police cars and hit helicopters!!!!!!! I want to be able to do that..... maybe i can try that with my Intermediate 1 class?!?!?! There were so many stupid stunts in it though that it was pure fantasy cinema. (I mean, shooting a bullet through yourself? Dodging missiles from a fighter jet?)

The funniest part was that when we left we forgot where our car was parked!!! As we started looking for it we bumped into one of the lecturers who gave us a lecture on Particle Detectors this morning!!!! She was very nice and helped us look for our car, so thanks Silvia!!!!
