Slow times


USRSF

Today is a sluggish day. I TA a general biochem course with 200 kiddies in it and the final is this Sat. And I would love for at least 1 student to actually try to find the answer before coming to me with a question. My labmate Mike managed to cheer me up though...

We began the moring at work by listening to "Da thirdy point buck" by Da Yoopers. A WI Xmas classic. A tale of adventure from the lodges of northern WI that nearly causes me to wet myself when the narrator describes Bett Lou, with "combination AK57/oozie, radar laser, triple barrel, double-scope, heat-seaking shotgun."

If you haven't already heard this one, I recommend it.
Kinda reminds me a a Northern version of USRSF.

First time reporting

Well, as stated, this is the first time I've reported from my now native territory of Wisconsin. And for tose of you that don't already know, the Mid-West is America's 3rd coast in all it's glory.



My friend (we'll call her cute) started a blog recently and asked for her friends to submitt comments. Unknowingly (I hope) she didn't realize that to post a comment, you have to sign in. Which lead me here... signed in. And I can't promise anything exciting will ever be posted. I can't even promise there will be a second post. But for a friend, I gave up my internet identity so that I could send a comment.



I now leave this post to go innoculate some cell cultures and have a beer with my Russian associate, pray that I don't get the two confused.
