Uncooperative Crickets

My advisor and I were once talking about how wonderful our Mac laptops were. He commented that it was so versatile that he even used it as a flashlight - the power had gone out that week, and he used his laptop to light his way to a real flashlight.

My response was something like: "Well, it is an awfully inefficient flashlight. It uses a lot more energy than a regular flashlight." My advisor didn't say this, but I wish he would have told me this: "You just ruined a perfectly good story."
