    So, not sure if he's dead, but I once had a teacher call me "homely" and when I said that wasn't nice, he insisted it meant "down to earth". So I got out a dictionary to prove he was wrong. I got in trouble for talking back, and I am STILL MAD.

    I kind of love it when I get to take my daughter to check out the airplane's cockpit, but I REALLY love it when the plane is captained by a woman pilot! And during no less! Thanks,

    The comments here are making me super self-conscious. I have brought my mom to conferences, conference dinners, and talks before because she wanted to see the city and the hotel was free. Were people judging me??!

    If you know me, you know I love public defenders. So, here's a really cool opportunity to use your data skills to support one of the absolutely critical (and often under-appreciated) parts of the criminal justice system.

    look at this gorgeous thing a friend sent me in the post — a book of metric conversions from 1933 sold to traders and merchants. It's a beautiful object but also a historical curio: look at all the metric units that fell out of favor, like myriagrammes and hectosteres
