Brady finished his Calculus course a couple of weeks ago. He was taking it Independent Study and it took a long time to get it all finished. Now he is free of math classes for the rest of his life (although he thought that when he finished his AP Calc in High School too). So to commemorate the occasion, we gathered up some friends in Provo Canyon, started a fire, and made a sacrificial offering so that Brady's burdened soul could be free of such devilry. After a quick oration under a full moon and with his staff in hand, Brady cast his math materials in the fire. The integrals and formulas were charred down to the very derivative of the hellfire they were concocted from... ashes, nothing more. After the flames had consumed the damming fodder, the smoke of freedom reached heavenward. It also got into our eyes so we all went home.

I've often wanted to burn my math materials as well!!! But it was usually about a week into the semester :) Way to wait until the end! You are an example to us all!
