    Balboa Park was beeyootiful today. Got back to the hotel near the water and it was cold, foggy, and windy. Gotta love California microclimates….

    T, why do dogs always come in pairs down here? Never seen that before, except in Manhattan….hmmmmmm.

    Coming your way tomorrow, T. Yes, the chemists (nerd alert!!!) are invading San Diego. Probably won’t have time to walk your dogs for you, though.

    Hmmm, given that some of the chemists will be talking about global climate change and energy alternatives, I better keep my eyes open for zombies….

    Geez, TB, this is unbelievable. I know a bunch of people that volunteered for SBK events in the past, but I’ll be encouraging them not to in the future.

    And your last post hit home too….I worked for private industry for 25 years, and Marketing would just shoot themselves if management pulled this kind of crap.

    I think Pink is the new Red….uncontrolled bleeding.

    Does Santorum have braces on his teeth? If so, why?

    Gawd, I used to love to cook. Now, not so much.

    But I did buy a 30 dollar blender at Costco today. Does that mean I’m beneath McMeganStandards??

    Excellent suggestion. There are still quite a few cows on campus, about three blocks from the quad. It would be awesome if each cow were led around the quad by a protesting student. But let’s not get into the whole Occupy Cows thing….

    Incidentally, my police radio tells me there’s a bunch more stuff happening right now on campus, and both the Chancellor and Police Chief are involved in the negotiations.

    I work at UC Davis. I know Lt. Pike. He and the administration just negated all the good things that go on here. I’ve seen a lot of stupid actions and decisions in my years on earth, but this one ranks very near the top.

    Why is she always holding a pen (a Sharpie?) in her hand? Is that symbolic of something? Or is it just the stiff rod shape that comforts her?

    OH, Gawd. I’m a chemist by profession, but now I will never mention that in polite society again.

    And I’m feeling nauseous……

    Geeee-sus, TB, with as many times as you’ve posted the “not flat busted” photo, I think we know what your definition of “bang, bang” is. But what if you actually got the opportunity? I just think you want to see Sarah’s boobs. In the flesh, as it were.

    Back when I was at Berkeley in the ’60′s, we used to stay up all night to discuss crap like the BBC documentaries. Man, did we ever waste our time, and we didn’t even know that Paula Abdul would exist one day. Oh, well.

    Now I really know what is important.

    Never mind, I’m old, and will be dead soon.
