As always....most of my blog posts are inspired this way.Makes you wonder what I'm thinking of when I'm chatting with you on the phone , eh? Back to the point of course...I got thinking, are scientists a whole new breed? Are we a species so far removed from the world, that a brief description would read more like a survivors guide?
I continued to ponder earlier mentioned qaundry..hmmmm Let us christen our universe 'Eppendorfia'....and peer into its mysterious workings...

Ahh candy fluff...none that is as saccharine as- "Your gels are a marvel to behold" "How steady be thy loading hand" "How gently you lyse your cells" "This chromatogram has such clear peaks...almost.." well never mind that one..!!!
Insults On Eppendorfia...
No saccharine without stupidity eh...
"You are as skewed as a nanodrop reading on tiny quantities of DNA" " I would put your P-value at 0.01" " You are about as enchanting to listen to as a sonicator" "For one, even your bugs ( read E.coli) smell better than you" And the ultimate put-down....Read do not pursue this one.. " I would rather read papers/write my thesis/submit an abstract than go out with you"
Songs that reverberate down in these depths...

There....that de-mystifies our race I believe...hah..and you thought we were hard to untangle? ( accompanied by derisive shake of head!hmph!)
