So to me it isn't all that strange to see someone in a Vikings jersey holding an #include<beer.h> pint glass. I actually offended some fellow geeks by not wanting to watch a football game. I told them I liked hockey and was back in their favor. I have noted, though, the lack of sports talk since I moved down here. I thought maybe grad students were just too busy for sports, but maybe it's just that St. Cloud is messed up in even more ways than I thought.
