An unfortunate combination of cheese and lack of stimulus
I think I must be bored.
While checking a reference list just now, I came across an error - a journal entitled 'Reviews in Molecular Medicine' has been referred to as 'Revues in Molecular Medicine'. This is a fairly simple (if somewhat inexplicable) mistake, but far more disturbing was what jumped into my head: a variety show starring academics and scientists.
This, of course, started the creative ball rolling, and the next thing I knew I'd conjured up the deeply incongruous image of a chorus line of technicians and lab assistants, in spectacles and white coats, high-stepping their way across an elaborately decorated research laboratory full of blackboards and specimen jars. Test tubes bubble, and the chorus line is singing:
"There's no physics like quark physics like no physics I know,
Everything about it's element'ry,
Everything the hadrons will allow... "
Coming soon to a theatre near you - Karl T. Compton stars in 'EUREKA!'. Why has this not been written yet?!? I think we should be told.
