FlabLoser's Home Attendance Calculator - Team USA Edition

[FlabLoser]

This week Flab takes a page from the great Dr Ray Winton over in the Simrall Electrical Engineering building. FlabLoser has been real busy studying for the FE. Dr Winton said, "you kids will learn that Engineers don't have time for things like...supper" and he was right. So instead of crunching through a plethora for formulas to arrive at this week's prediction, Flab will pull a Winton and make a quick estimation with shocking precision.

PREDICTION: 54,439

Ray Winton is/was awesome.

The bonus questions Winton asked always blew my mind

Never had Winton. Had Gassaway & Fitzgerald. Fitz was a genius but he couldn't teach my dubmass. Gassaway looked like he should have been riding on a pulpwood truck (& he was my favorite EE teacher besides Irwin).

Winton told this joke in class one time...

There once was a snake breeder who had two snakes he was trying to mate. For the
life of him, he couldn't get them within two feet of each other. Frustrated, he
called up the local zoologist, and explained the situation. She hurried over,
picked up the snakes and looked at them. "You know what I would do?" she said.
"See that tree over there? Chop it down, chop off a good sized log, split the
log in two, and make two tables out of them. Put the tables and the snakes into
a cage, and let them go at it."

Well, the breeder thought that this was
insane, but having no other options, he tried it. Sure enough, a few days later
he had a whole slew of baby snakes. He called up the zoologist, and asked her
how that was possible. She replied, "Well, you see, those snakes were adders.
And everybody knows that to get adders to multiply you need log tables."

If he told that nowadays ...

he would be placed on administrative leave, investigated for potential sexual harassment, forced to attend sensitivity training workshops, and publicly reprimanded.

There was this guy who got shipped wrecked on a deserted Island. With him was a male dog and sow, after a few months things started to get bad for the guy not having any females. So he decided to try it with the sow but every time he tried the dog would bite him and keep him away from the sow. One day he heared a female voice in the surf and noticed that there was a lady calling for help. He went out into the surf and pulled her to the beach. Turns out it was Hillary Clinton. She told the guy that she was very grateful for the help and if there was aaaaaaaanything he needed or sssssshe could do for him just let her know. Well the guy did not hesitated one bit. He said yes could you hold this damn dog for a few minutes.<O></O>

The bonus questions and the music he played during his tests make him one of the more memorable characters from ECE.

 

[RocketDawg]

You are no doubt correct. But back in the 60s I had Chemistry I and II from the infamous Dr. Sheely. It is reported, and I believe it even though I wasn't there, that the class was doing some sort of urine test in lab. So a girl speaks up, saying "Dr. Sheely! I've got gold in my urine!"

So Sheely turns to the class of mostly males with his patented plastered grin and says, "Anyone care to sink a shaft?"

He would be fired now ... Sheely or not.

In E3 that goofball spent more time making us learn to use a spreadsheet(new at the time) instead of Electronics.
Ticked me off at the time.
Turns out I've used spreadsheets a few more times than I've biased transistors.
