Postage Stamps

Wednesday, May 4th, 2005

When I read the article entitled “New Postage Stamps Honor Four Scientists” online today I couldn’t believe that our blog had become so prostigious so quickly. How could it be that we had been so honored without even a hit of this getting to us before it hit the newswire? Why is the cerimony being held at Yale without us in attendance? Then I realized that we were not being honored, instead Josiah Willard Gibbs, Barbara McClintock, John von Neumann, and Richard P. Feynman will be adorning the US postage stamps. Oh well, I guess I need to win a Nobel Prize before I get a stamp with my picture on it.

For anyone who is interested here is a link to the story on Yahoo!:

I liked the Caped Avenger’s Random iPod Selection so I will add my own: Blue Bayou by Roy Orbison
