Random Post

I haven’t been posting a lot recently, so I am making this random post. This Wednesday my boss was out of town and I had to cover his med micro lab at the medical school. It was a small groups lab with about 20 students. The subject was HIV diagnostics, something I knew very little about before preparing for the lab. The students had some case studies to discuss, but the main purpose was to understand the concepts behind different test available. It was pretty interesting interacting with the students. Some were very inquisitive, others were only interested in signing the role. All-in-all, it was an enjoyable experience and I look forward to the next time I get the opportunity.

My mother’s mother (Granny) passed away over the weekend. Her death was not unexpected, but has still caught me of guard. She will be missed. My cousin posted on the impact my grandmother had on her life. Please take a few seconds to go to her blog and read the post (here).

Horrible Ads

I was going to post a poll on which was your favorite Super Bowl ads, but the ads this year were really bad and it would be a waste of time. Maybe I she post a poll on the worst ad. My vote would be for the Chevy ad with the robot. Nothing makes me want to buy a car like an ad about someone/something getting fired, spiraling into depression and committing suicide! Was it just me or 50% of the ads for CBS? Anyway, what did you think of the game? I thought it was pretty good. The Bears kept it exciting, but just couldn’t pull it out in the end.

Who ya got?

In case you are like Kyllan, I would like to remind everyone that the Super Bowl is on Sunday. What are you doing for the big game? Me? Last year I hosted a party for the department’s graduate students (at Tulane.) This year, I could count the number of people I know in Denver on one hand. So, instead of going some place with a bunch of people I don’t know and eating bad food, I am going to just watch it by myself at home. I’m not really pulling for anyone. Tony Dungy is the only reason I would like to see the Colts win. However, the Bears are the underdog, and I would love to see them surprise everybody.
