Just to prove I have not dropped off of the face of the earth, here is a little post. During the weekend I destroyed a significant number of increasingly valuable hydrocarbons while I drove the family to the southern-most Dakota. I've been a bit detained by that incident.
Ψ*Ψ at CBC[1] recently[2] posted about poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). This reminded me of the many ways I have use PEG in my life. From my Ph.D. research to eye-drops to laxatives and more. My next post[3] will detail all of the wonderful things PEG has done for me.
Until then, enjoy this:

I love Brainiac.
Not the robot that tries to kill Superman from time to time. He's bad news.
I can do science, me.
I personally like when they play golf with the explosives, which turns out to be something akin to a huge flame absorption experiment. Pretty colors rule.
...or have them say, "out in about in a boat"...good times
