Yeah...I'm doing stats. I even cleared off my desk and starting thinking
about how much of it I have to do. In an hour, I might start looking for
the book. By 6:10 I might have one problem completed to turn in for
class. :(

Google is amazing...

"In the early 1920s America's youth decided that anything great or
gratifying was the cat's meow -- or the cat's pajamas or even the bee's
knees, phrases you can still hear on occasion. Cat meaning "a jazz man"
or "any man" soon began to creep into jazz lingo -- introduced, they
say, by the trumpeter and New Orleans native Louis Armstrong. It was
combined with hep (or hip) to produce hepcat in the 1930s. There are
romantics who hope that hepcat will turn out to be derived from the word
hipikat, in the West African language Wolof; hipikat means, roughly,
"eyes open." The likelihood that such a linguistic kinship exists,
however, is vanishingly small.
