The Weak in Review 11/4/99
Top Stories:
Restriction enzyme BsmI will be holding a sit-in at The Pit
on Thursday to protest the fact that, at 5000U/ul, its concentration is
just half that of fellow restriction enzyme AccI as a whole. The
protest is scheduled to last 30 minutes to one hour and will be held at
65 degrees Celsius.
On a somber note, beloved children's entertainer Kermit the
Frog was left paralyzed this week after undergoing surgery to repair the
unusually large hole in his ass.
One woman was injured and another narrowly escaped harm this
past weekend after an uncoordinated white guy was baited into dancing by
female acquaintances. The uncoordinated white guy expressed remorse
for causing the injury, but said that the incident was a reassuring confirmation
that his inhibitions are founded in reality rather than diffidence or neurosis.
He then stressed that, like cuddly-looking wild animals, harmless-looking
dorky white guys should NEVER be approached on the dance floor as they
cannot help but exhibit genetically-encoded behavior patterns that often
result in serious injury to well-meaning bystanders or to the animal himself.
Word for the Day:
"laurels" as in "to rest on one's laurels". In this
usage, "laurels" means achievements or honors. I always thought that
in this context "laurels" was a polite word for "fat ass".
