Science - Beer = Publications?

Sciencey beer.


A study has come out from Thomas Grim, an ornithologist at Palacky University, Czech Republic, stating that the more beer a scientist drinks, the less publications they will publish.

I am not a big fan of this study.

The New York Times also published an article about this study and I think that Dr. Mike Webster, an ornithologist from the Washington State University has it right. He says,
“Maybe those with poor publication records are drowning their sorrows.”
I hope this is the case.

There also appears to be a correlation between IQ and drinking wine vs beer. A Danish study shows that wine drinkers have higher IQs than beer drinkers.

I am okay with this since I enjoy wine and beer. I wonder if that just means I have an average IQ?

i should be studying, but i want to gloat...

so a woman told me i was right...lets pause for a moment and appreciate that (count to four quietly if you are a woman). for all the guys out there you understand what i mean.

seriously, i have a physical chemistry of biological macromolecules exam in about 13 hours and i would rather tell the world that a woman told me i was right than study. well yeah i would do anything other than studying, but this seems like a really really good excuse.

so most women are probally thinking that this guy just things he was right, but the woman was lying. well to those nonbelievers i have proof, undeniable proof. i have a picture, a picture which as not been edited (well i removed part of the statement that was not important), which proves i was right, and i needed to post this so i could always remember the time i was right and a woman told me.

so for all you men out there who have never been right, i share my moment with you, and hope that someday you too feel the wonderful majestic feeling of being right!


and lena, i want you to know i will cherish this picture and moment for the rest of my life (if you want the context of the picture check out lena's blog).
