Ah, Winnie Cooper
Would that every boy/man had a Winnie Cooper, “the one.” If she’s there, that would make the lecture The One-der Years.
The lecture’s in the evening. Not sure about the Cal game. If it’s a night game, bring a portable TV. Then, right as Tao describes some esoteric method of measuring distances in space, simultaneous to a Bruin touchdown, you will become Homer Simpson, unable to suppress an audience-startling “YES!!!”
If I were to attend
I am afraid of questioning my comprehension of the English language. Other than, “This is how it works…” I’ll be a headless chicken the rest of the way.
