Crankcase

Two bags of jelly beans, a ten-year old and a Tilt-A-Whirl.

My first home posting. I intentionally got up early this morning to put soemthing up on here. And the reason why? I'll be out in the field all day today. So I have little to work with and even less time to write about it.

From a conversation with Kate last night, she told me about actual studies on the old five-second rule. You know, if food hits the ground and you can pick it up in under five seconds it's safe to eat. Well, an enterprising high school student pulled off some pretty cool data about it (one of the coolest bits is that Genghis Kahn actually had a similar rule). Take a look at the data here.

That's probably going to be it for the week. Workload is at its holiday spirit-crushing best and we're going to be doing the All-American Road Rally for Thanksgiving. Drive to one set of relatives, eat, drive to next set of relatives, eat. Who ever said grudges held by family members weren't fun?

To all who read this pitiful tripe and bow down to the triptophan dieties, have a good one. See you next week.

Well, I'm usually too burned out by the time I get home from work to do much beyond stare at the idiot box for an hour or so and then go to sleep. The blog is a tough mistress, but her siren song is hard to stay away from.
