If the humor is lost on you, don't worry. You've got to be a pretty big dork to think this is funny. This is a street near to the labs at which I work, so I am quite certain it was intentional. It is surround by other streets such as Proton way, and Neutron court. etc.

Some people are like slinkys...
They aren?t really good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one tumbles down the stairs.

I should know all of these. Spent my time at technical college (maths and physics). Since I graduated I never used all the cool maths stuff. Forgotten, all of it.
sgn(5)=1
sgn(-3)=-1
sgn(0)=0

In my area you learn Logs in either algerbra 2 or a pre-calculus course.
They are easy for those who haven't done them, they look hard in the beggining, but are pretty simple.

To get something to work, sometimes you just have to beat your head against the wall longer; the skin grows back, but the brick doesn't.
