crazy day for storms

at a micro level

what the hell am I doing in botany? I'm already swimming neck deep in sclerenchyma cells and sieve tube elements. speaking of sclerenchyma cells, this here picture is of one, a fiber sclerenchyma cell of the New Zealand Flax plant to be exact. Perty isn't it? I took it through the microscope. 6 hours of lab time staring through a tiny hole will just about make one go crazy, rrrrrrrrr.

since I was 4!

some call it a single speed. I call it a simple speed. simply find 2 cups left over parts, .5 ounce grease, 5 gallons of love, 1 box sponsored planet bike accessories, and 500 calories to burn. A great recipe for fuel efficiency.

like joan jett....

It's a bit early yet, but mark your calendars, especially those in the Midwest and east coast. Those of us on the west coast will miss the beginning but should still see a good show. Total eclipse, your pad and mine, Feb 20.

I'd rather be biking....

ONe of these days when the anchor is not set and the barb is released from my cheek I will pedal again. I will sleep under bridges, eat little debbies, and wear the same clothes for a month. I will have no assignments due, my bike will not run out of ink or dick space, and I will stop to SMELL the roses rather than dissecting them to look at at their collenchyma cells.
