I always sort of like the Engineer’s drinking song that we sung at ye ol MIT. The chorus of it goes like this:

We are, we are, we are, we are, we are the engineers
We can, we can, we can, we can demolish forty beers
Drink rum, drink rum, drink rum all day and come along with us
For we don’t give a damn for any old man who don’t give a damn for us.

I decided to poke around the web a little bit and, what do you know, people sing it elsewhere. Here’s a bunch of verses from schools and engineers all around the world!

Who knew?

There is now a Cape Town Craigslist, the first one in all of Africa. Good work, Craig. Cape Town is where it’s at!

There are currently about 100 posts on the entire site. That’s sort of like the Pittsburgh CL. ha!

After day two of the three day point total final of Jeopardy’s Ultimate Tournament of Champions, we have:

It’s not looking good for Ken. He looked embarrassed at the end of the day yesterday. He slammed down his buzzer after the Double Jeopardy round. He’s never been up against competition like this before.

I have no doubt that he can win still, but he’ll have to go on a tear. Pull yourself together Ken!
