Yeah, I have a video camera.  We can make this work. I'm thinking a pay-per-view thing, or maybe a web site.  Hot Hobot fighting action or something.

Mud, oil, or Jell-O?

oh wierd. I had a dream that I met hobot just now. and I met her dad, and he was like "this is a boy from the Internet? What? what?"
but, because it was a dream, I was in Richmond because I was doing something for Science. so I was supposed to interview/examine ms. Hobot's father, but it was awkward for me to do this.

I have wierd dreams.

for some reason, most of the dream consisted of Hobot cooking various things while I tried to carry on a conversation.

They do have one of those kidteractive learnatoria there with the hands-on demonstration games and, I believe, an IMax movie.

The Science Museum of Virginia!  This is actually located somewhat near my house.  But theinevitable, if you want some real science action, accompany me to work one day!  I will anaesthetise pregnant mice in front of your very eyes, collect the still-living (hearts still beating) embryos from their womb, and suspend them in cryo-liquid!  I will perform PCR, endlessly pipetting sample after sample after sample as your eyelids droop and your patience wears thin!  I will photograph agarose gels and contaminate the labs with ethidium bromide, putting everyone at risk!  The fun never ends when it is SCIENCE! time!

Damn straight. The Science! lifestyle is a non-stop rollercoaster of fun and frolic!

The contamination bit reminds me of an short documentary made by a friend of mine last semester documenting an average day in her chemistry lab -- a day in which she, a woman of average height, constantly had to go on tiptoes or stand on stools in order to reach chemicals (most of which were not things you would want to drop) or operate equipment, and in which she got into any number of dangerous and unpleasant situations just because she was less than 5'10". It had an impressive moral ("if even this very new lab space built by an allegedly-progressive college is a goddamn deathtrap for women, is it any wonder that chemistry is a boys' club?") and was a pretty classic example of Fun In The Lab, Oh Boy.

Is it weird that there are three ladies on this board who have had torturing and/or executing rodents as part of their everyday work?  Or is there just more of this going on American society than most of us imagine?

Hobot, you have made me want to cry that I probably won't be able to come.

I am such a bad cashier. SO BAD.

I didn't read it out of context.  Thank you for pointing that out to me.

yeah, I'm not going to be able to come at all.

sorry for getting your hopes up. I'm sure they'll let you return all the fine wine and delicious meals and condoms and such.

fun story: this couple came in and bought Wine, 2 Steaks, 2 potatos, butter, and lube.

the lube would not ring up.

I tried so hard not to laugh. I reached for the microphone to call for a price check.
and the lady got this horrified expression on her face, and then said "we won't be needing that."
"um, are you sure honey? *plaintively*"
"yes. We don't need it."

I feel like I already told this story.

In the event of lube it's always "the lube" and never "your lube."  Try not to assign ownership in the event of lube.

Dude should look at it optimistically.  Maybe she has a fetish for being caught buying something mundanely salacious amongst miscellany in a grocery store.  Maybe, just maybe, she was saying "We don't need it because now I am all wet; let us away to the homestead where we will commence with the bumping and grinding!"


But yes.. probably not.
