To quote a former president "Put some ice on it."

An example- My town has been building a reserve fund into the budget. They found that the community center, built in the late 60s-early 70s had extensive mold damage. They found out it would cost only $500,00 more to build a new building rather than repairing. Did it without raising any taxes at all.

Molecular Biology- Thesis was on the DNA replication pattern of a group of Baker's yeast genes. I developed a method to map which way the replication fork on a stretch of DNA was moving. Yeast have specific DNA replication origins. Later, another lab , using my method showed that in human cells, the DNA replication origins are non-specific. They found DNA replication forks moving in both directions.

OMG!!!!!!!

Yes, I do.

I had wished one had asked me the airspeed of an unladen swallow. The oral exams you take feel like that.

In San Jose, near Lick Observatory (where some of the first extrasolar planets were discovered), the street lights are low powered and very orange to cut down on light pollution on Mt. Hamilton , where the Observatory is. Mars ain't the kind of place to raise a kid. in fact it's cold as hell.

My brother works for the county in a non-civil service, but union job. It was "highly "recommended by the union that they attend a Gorski fundraiser if they wanted any chance of advancement in the future. My brother went for the beer.

1,943rd Martian Day. A Martian day is 24 hours, 34 minutes.

I was in San Rafael, Corte Madera, and Larkspur (where Dirty Harry shot jumped on the bus and shot Scorpio (the trestle and quarry are gone)) yesterday. I was at least the mid 90s there. When we got to Richmond, ~6 miles away and across the bridge, it was 69 degrees. Today I checked and it was 68 in Richmond ion the Bay northwest of Oakland . At my house, 25 miles away, it was 98! I driven through the Caldecott Tunnel in Oakland. It's located right where the big fire in 91 was. On the Oakland side I have seen peas soup fog and temps in the 60s. On the east side, 0.6 miles away, it is perfectly clear and in the 90s.

Skanky? She was the Ivory Snow Girl!

Obama?

Practice, Practice, Practice. I did mine about 25 times and I was on autopilot for it. My advisor said he had seen only one person not pass his defense. Once they tell you to write, they have seen the data and know it's enough for you to defend. He said when they send you out for ten minutes or so to "discuss" your work, they immediately sign the paperwork and then BS the rest of the time. The oral exams before I started doing the research were a lot tougher.

It's going to keep going up as the baby boomer generation gets older. More pepole, more celebrities, more dead celebrities.

Already 100 at 12:30 PM today.

And in Modesto,CA the school board ok'd letting students go to get an abortion, doctor, and dentist visits during the school day without telling the parents.

Great sh--. Had it when i went in for asurgery. Telling the nurse"Cut me open, I don't care" and thinking I'd F ' her right there if I could even raise my head up off the gurney.

Notice the sideburns on #3! From what I've heard in teh SF bay area, Jim Lange was also interested in the bachelors. He's still around. He was a DJ on a jazz station in the SF area until a few years ago.

82 East of the SF Bay, Supposed to be about 88. Tomorrow and Sunday 102 and 103. Going to be in Marin County Sunday. About 93 there then.

San Francisco- Tis spring and the smell of urine is in the air!
