Boo Boo Says the Ghost, Today is Halloween!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!




It's a travesty that the most Halloween-y music I have is Sweeney Todd. I don't even have Thriller or The Monster Mash. Oh well.

Here are, as usual, some links:

An Anecdote, A Case of TMI, and Some Geekery

Anecdote: 
Today in Orgo lab Professor Lamos showed us how you can make a single pipet into a shit-ton of capillary tubes by heating the middle of the pipet over a burner until it gets melty, and then stretching it out real fast so it gets all thin before it cools. The thing is, you can only stretch the glass as wide as your arms are, so the temptation is to bring your arms out really far. It was at this point that Lamos told us, especially if we were women, that this is not a good idea. Stretching your arms out really far thrusts your chest out, and into the hot glass. Which is a problem for everyone, but especially those with boobs. :)

Too Much Information:
Joe's Cell Phone: *rings in the middle of wind ensemble*
Joe: (embarassed) I'm sorry. That was a fluke.
Doc: (quietly) Eh, you were a fluke.
Joe: (excited) No! I wasn't! My mother called me one day to tell me that I was a planned baby. *imitating his mother* You were concieved on Valentine's Day, 1986.
Me: *in my head* TMI Joe.

Geekery:
Lily and James Potter were murdered on Halloween. So, this is not just a holiday, but also the anniversary of their death. I wonder what that does to Harry's perception of the day.
