A Small Slice

Reading through the Jan. 12 issue of Science News magazine and came across an article that begins,

"Roundworms need protons to poop."

science + poop = awesome

My Ultimate Christmas List

A bath tub that cleans itself
for amazing and delicious chocolate to also be calorie free
enough $ to get everyone the things I see that remind me of them, that I think would make them smile
disposable clones
The ability to always remember that in 100 years it probably won't matter what I did, so loosen the hell up
transporter technology so I could visit friends scattered to the 4 corners
perfect pitch
The ability to transcend human scales of time to be able to view the emergence and evolution of galaxies
For air travel to seem/be much safer
guarantees that Paul and I will grow old together
The house we're living in
For some of this extra 'insulation' I've gained to actually insulate
a la cart cable channels
Enough time to hear all of my grandmother's stories
The insight to know when an opportunity is passing me by at the time rather than months/years later.
