We all endured the long and painful suffering of the past evils this week. The horror of semester exams, studying, and lack of proper personal care in some cases. One of the few good things I can say is thank the mighty heavens as well as DOC for not having a Physics exam. I spent over 11 hours studying for the APUSH exam and I was still puzzled by some of the questions Soares (Pflinger?) decide to put on the exam. One of the questions (I can't reveal what it was) dealt was particularly not difficult to handle since all it required was a brain dump to answer the question. As I was writing as much as I knew about the *censored* I realized that my thumb was beginning to burn from a blister I was getting from writing too much in the past 48 hours. Than as I was continuing to spew information, I realized that the pen acquired rotation mechanics in multiple ways.
One way was the use of my thumb as a fulcrum to carefully manipulate it to make words. Although I was making minimum movement with my pen side, I saw the other side of the pen making bigger movements and circles due to the tip being father from the fulcrum and having to travel a faster velocity. Another rotation was the rotation of the ball in my pen to produce the ink. A ball point pen works by rotating to carefully let ink out onto the page in a controlled fashion. SO thank you physics for forcing me to think about you while I was taking a very critical exam.
