CLASSIC

Yesterday i dined on the company dollar, and was thusly able to order dessert. Half my dessert i kept so that i could eat it today. WELL i go into the fridge and what is missing? My dessert. I found the "evidence" in the garbage meaning it was eaten this morning RIGHT UNDER MY NOSE. I know someone didn't throw it out because there was a fork with key lime pie residue on it and most of the pie was gone.

Here is the note i left on the fridge:

Gender Gap in Perception of Computer Science

What they found was that there is little race/ethnicity-based differences in how youth perceive CS but there are HUGE gender based differences in perception.

While 67% of all boys rated computer science as a "very good" or "good" career choice, only 9% of girls rated it "very good" and 17% as "good."

Yes, that is indeed a miniature USB powered microwave oven. Yes, it IS specifically made for baked bean heating.
