What I'm reading: Geek logik

From Garth Sundem's Geek Logik: 50 Foolproof Equations for Everyday Life:
This is just a funny book that (gasp) makes math useful. For example: Can you still wear a Speedo (without frightening small children)?
So I enter values such as waist size, calories consumed per day, and days per week I exercise into a formula and come up with:
S = 1.468
Since S > 1 I can still wear the Speedo!

Mood: geeky geeky
