tRNA!

OMG! I'm presently teaching about protein synthesis and thought, wouldn't it be funny if I found that film that was shown to us in Energetics/Genetics at OAM. And what do you know, Youtube had it. Of course, this was done in 1971, so it is a little dated, but man is it funny.

This version (10 minutes), which appears to be the better quality version, is missing the introduction. For the video with the introduction (13 minutes) check out this version.

Enjoy!

Trip Details

Well, as I stated in the previous post, we made it back from our 2 week trip 1 week ago. Finally it seems like things are back to normal.

Glaciermom and glacierbaby loved meeting everyone at reunion. Glaciermom now has faces to go along with all those names I keep spitting out. Glacierbaby though still seems to be taken with J.Po. (J.Po, if you feel like babysitting, and are in MT, call us.)

Probably our worst experience about reunion, was in fact that darn heat and humidity. At least here in MT it is a dry heat.

I must admit though, I'm getting old. I seem to be keeping glacierbaby's hours better than others that are my age. Getting up early (for me) and going to bed by 9 pm. What's next, bifocals?

We did spend a few days in grrrbear's high school home town. It was quite fun, although the weather didn't cooperate. (No going to the lake, bummer! Darn whitecaps on the lake.)

North Dakota hasn't changed. It's still boring. At least glacierbaby slept through the boring parts.

Back Home, Finally

So, some of you may have been wondering "Why hasn't glacierdad posted anything recently?" Well, first there was the end of school (May to Memorial Day). Then there was cleaning the classroom (Memorial Day to Vacation). Last there was Vacation (OAM reunion, visiting glaciermom's family to yesterday).

Yes, we got back late last night from about 2 weeks of vacation. I promise I will blog about reunion, but first there are certain things that must get done, (Bills, laundry, rest, etc.)

I did it!

Well, I've gone and done it. Yup, I've registered for Reunion weekend this summer at OAM.

In other news, glacierbaby is up to 15 pounds, and over 2 feet tall!!!
