I am attending the International Conference on High Energy Physics in the exotic locale of Philadelphia, PA. Here are some random thoughts.

Most interesting talk title: Things decaying into top quarks, that are similar to top quarks, or that are produced with top quarks, by Jochen Cammin of the University of Rochester.

BNL Is the Villan in WALL-E

I went to see the new Pixar movie, WALL-E, last night. I throughly enjoyed it. The villan of the movie was a corporation, Buy N Large, which makes Walmart look like a boutique shop. It is abbrievated all throughout the movie as BNL. I hope my friends from Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) don’t take it personally.
