And how's your week going?

I'm dealing with camel snot and lung worms. No wonder I have writer's block.

Scale bar = 1 mm.

Gourmet tip for the day: make sure any snails or rats you eat are well-done.

  3. The brother-in-law of a friend is a fish entomologist. When the family would go to a restaurant, he always ordered fish and then dug all the parasites out of the meat and identified them for his "audience". Loved his sense of humour.

  4. BBC, I'm not sick, just stuck with having to look at pictures of camel boogers as part of my job.

  5. Oh, well, I guess there's worse things to look at.

    BTW, my week is going ok.

  6. Jeez, it's so hard to get a meat thermometer in my escargot!

    Since you asked, we're dealing with a visit from the Secretary of Interior, several undersecretaries and bureau directors, and all the associated politicians. It's great fun.

  7. Our government dollars are researching camel snot? We don't even have camels in this country!?

  8. Susan, the journal is international -- the research was done in and paid for by another country.
