So what do mathematicians do...

other than turning coffee into theorems, that is?

For example, they sing! (But, more on that later.)

They attend musical concerts (Ustad Rashid Khan here, but also - Ustad Shahid Pervez, Ashwini Bhide, Rajan-Sajan Mishra, Yesu Das, Anoushka Shankar...).


They feel the need to mess around with their computers!





Sometimes, they need to exchange rooms with their roommates. Some of these sometimes, one finds former (college) roommates around during the move. This may not be a bad thing - unless said former co-dormer prefers to read The Half-Blood Prince in the middle of all the mess :).



Oh yes - they make Italian food! Salmon with mashed potatoes; beans, sauteed mushrooms - and wine (and salad). To be concluded with fruits and cheese.
And Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake. Perhaps an episode of "Yes, Minister" on the side. Or "Agatha Christie's Poirot", if we're having Fifth Avenue Chocolatiere Truffles. After all, mon ami, Hercule Poirot would prefer them!




Mathematicians also make Indian Chinese food! (This one's after I left Chicago, but it still was very good Chilli Chicken.)









Of course, they grow older...

And the cakes get "healthier" :).
