I was pleased yesterday to see that the "Want to help the animals?" pamphlet people on campus were handing out pamphlets from Compassion Over Killing, rather than from PETA. PETA has just engaged in so much fail lately, that I hate that they're seen as "the voice" of a cause that I care about.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Congratulations Kate!
Hey, so Yo Is This Racist kind of already addressed the "ethnic food" question:
Dude should eat at Thai restaurants. In my experience, when you order hot they take you at your word (and then laugh about it in the kitchen).
That would be one hell of a commute. Slightly worse than mine even.
I could probably figure something out about work, but Sunday Family Dinner would be a real PITA.
Welcome Rose!
Happy Birthday, Isaac!
Congrats, Kate!
It's a good week to be born, as JZ's mom celebrated her 70th birthday yesterday and her daughter-in-law (Matilda's Aunt Angela) just went into labor. Wheeee! April babies. Giddyup a Whoop Whoop!
Welcome, Rose!
Rick,
I work at a research university too, but clearly you are more accomplished than I am!
I say this without ego.
Congratulations, Kate!
I don't think we can judge accomplishment by length of Vita.
I've seen some very long ones with nothing in them. And some very short ones full of remarkable contributions. I remember a guy who said "I only list my publications in Nature and Science. The papers in other journals are more like preliminary drafts>" He had one page of publications but it was a very, very impressive page.
