Must be quick.  Life here is insane.

1.  Science Friday will start next Friday.  Need time to research the topics.

2.  Everyone in the GAMBLE – Send me a poll with your top 15 picks from the current list.  Top Ten vote-getters will stay.  All the others get “downsized”.  (See, acting like a manager already.)

3. Apologies for being cryptic.  The current situation here is that my department director, after 15 years with the company, was lured away by the greener fields of government benefits and pension.  I am now the (acting) Director of my department.  My permanent fate will be determined in three months.

Which explains my speed-post.  Life just got a whole lot more … interesting.  Just call me ExecuMom.

 PS – On the record, courtesy of Charlotte, a Science Friday Short Feature: 

Regarding Wolf – berry Juice (the popular marketing name I won’t put here to avoid massive quantities of spam. Remove hyphen and Google it).

Save your money – You are better off drinking fresh tomato juice made from locally grown tomatoes.

Now you have it in writing.
