Last night I was sitting on the sofa watching TV when I heard my wife's voice from the kitchen. "What would you like for dinner my Love?... Chicken, beef or fish?"
I said, "Thank you, I'll have chicken."
She replied "You're having soup, asshole. I was talking to the dog"

LOL :-) Mikek
We just had carrot soup for dinner. Mo used purple carrots and it came out looking sort of brownish red, like beef stew. That actually made it taste better.

Carrot soup? Wow. Could it have tasted worse? ;)
Roast turkey here.
Cheers

Actually, it was very good, with a home-made chicken broth base. We had a physicist friend [1] and his sweetie in for the weekend, and we took them out for some serious food and drink a couple of times. It was sort of a relief to eat something light.
I've noticed that physicists tend to be good eaters.

[1] From TRIUMF. I now know more about muons than anybody really needs to know. He does have some interesting scintillator problems, so I gave him your book.
Roast of Angus hind-quarters, here. Pass on the carrots.

Okay, that makes some sense. I'm surrounded by women on what they laughingly call 'detox' diets. The amount of cargo-cult thinking among even professionals in the nutrition field is amazing, and when you get the amateurs involved, it makes the 'over unity' and FTL folks seem positively rational.
My stock answer to nutritionism: "Margarine and baby formula."
We may be weird, but we do know the importance of a few things.
Wow, I didn't realize TRIUMF was still going. It was fairly new when I started as an undergraduate in 1976. They were going to revolutionize cancer treatment using pion beams, back then.
And thanks for financing another 8 minutes of my daughter's university!

Did you know Syd Kreitzman?
They are doing what is essentially NMR, but with muon decay. Really weird.

No, I had one prof who was a TRIUMF guy, but they pretty well kept to themselves. That seems to be the case with most university-attached particle accelerators--it certainly was at SLAC as well.
