I was in the lab all morning performing Day 2 of the Sox2 immuno run. I learned all about the auditory system in class. Then I went back to lab to coverslip my slides. Now, I’m going to see Phone Booth with Brian/Josh, Kathy, Pejman, and Erling. Yeah that just about covers it.
* Ridiculous Item of the Day: I was under the impression that companies like Kodak and Nike would match any price to buy their domain name from independent owners. Apparently, I was wrong. The going rate for the top domain names has reached a ceiling at 99 MILLION DOLLARS, as this Ebay auction indicates. I suppose it may be a tad unfair to label this auction “ridiculous” since the winner gets “a diet that is guaranteed to work” and a super cool t-shirt to go along with an unforgettably catchy domain name like GOYFLADIET.COM that will undoubtedly turn any business into a money-making machine.
* Number of the Day: $8.99. Otherwise known as the price of a “large” (footlong) sub-sandwich at any of the 500 Quizno’s in the greater Los Angeles Area.
* Ironic Situation of the Day: Calling the phone company and being put on hold.
* Best Song I’ve Ever Heard of the Day: “Bring Me To Life” by Evanescence (This was also the only redeeming part of the movie Daredevil)
* Movie Quote of the Day: “How long have you been a spy, Harry?”
