So we were assigned partners for our Computer Modeling and Animation final project, based on our skillset.  I was partnered with the girl who, though a competent coder, had never used Maya before.  On the one hand, how flattering!  Warren (the TA) must have a high opinion of my Maya skills!  On the other hand, CRAP.
Fortunately, Warren later conceded and let us swap partners, and I'm now in a group of three: me, the aforementioned girl, and Matt, leader of our Siggraph chapter and generally cool guy.  Win!
In my Sci-Fi class this week, we read Burroughs' 
A Princess of Mars and Gernsback's 
Ralph 124C 41+.  I think this week's theme is "hero protagonists I wish would die in a fire."  Oh, Disney/Pixar, what are you doing buying the rights to the former?
