Happy Friday the 13th!
A few people brought this to my attention the other day:
Apparently, in honour of the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street, Google made a bunch of Sesame Street Google logos. And since today is a numerically significant day – i.e., Friday the 13th (*thirteen!* *thirteen days in November!* ah ah ah ah ah!) and Google recently posted that pic of the Count, I thought it was a good time to resurrect the paper I wrote while working for the Centre of Excellence for Sesame Street Investigations, along with my colleagues from the The Newspaper Route: Your First Step to Success Inc. and The Canadian Division for the Advancement of the Vampiric Monarchy. You know, for anyone who wasn’t reading my blog two years ago.

I love that paper. I still share it with all my friends. When submitting my CV recently for a certain faculty position, I almost included this (BRILLIANT, GROUND BREAKING & REVOLUTIONARY) work. But then my advisor suggested that it wasn't the image that I wanted to leave with my new potential employers. Advisors can be sooooooo boring.
Your supervisor is just jealous that s/he/it never conducted such a BRILLIANT, GROUND BREAKING & REVOLUTIONARY experiment. Jealous, I say.
You had me at: 'It is a well known fact that the children are our future (Houston, 1986).'
LMAO
I have to agree that that line was inspired! Never seemed to have such inspired lines in my real papers for some reason…
