The Chicago Water Tower looks pretty amazing, its baroque style set in the midst of a bustling, modern city.

Great moments in sports - The best one is the bat—but the soccer ones are pretty amazing, too.

Back from Chicago

I’m back from the American Chemical Society National Meeting in Chicago. There were 15,000 chemists there, with endless events, awards (our Chem Club (well, Student Affiliate Chapter) earned “Commendable” (place 2 out of 3)), and a whole pile of food. Plus, Chicago is a pretty neat place. McCormick Place is huge (how does 2.2 million square feet of space strike you?).

So, now I’m back at the grindstone, grinding away. Really grinding. It’s nuts over here, and it probably will be throughout April. But have no fear, at some point we’ll sort out that mess of the latest edition of 5 Questions. In the meantime, I hope everyone had a wonderful spring break.

Didn’t make it to this one—this is the view from our hotel room.

I’d have you guess what this is, but the picture tag gives it away.

Someday I’ll really capture a sunset in a photograph of some type. Perhaps when virtual reality comes around.

5 Questions, Vol. 4

It’s been almost a year since the last round of “Five Questions,” that gloriously awkward game where tumbledryers get to ask me any five questions they want. So, I thought I’d bring it back for another round. What do you want to know? What would you like to ask me? Burning questions? Burning sensations? Bring on the former, and go to a doctor for the latter!

In a fun twist this year, the first question directed towards another tumbledryer (tumbledrier? still haven’t decided on that spelling) holds binding power to the user at whom they direct said query. That is, if Commenter A asks Commenter B a question, and Commenter A is the first person to ask a question, then Commenter B (bound by essentially nothing except their honor) must answer the question posed by Commenter A. We’ll see how that one goes.

Questions to how any of this actually works won’t go towards the five question total.
