No electrons were blown up in the making of this blog.

Gaaah

Pours booze over goat cheese and sets it on fire.

I just sent my summer student home (5 hours early).

The good news is he didn't destroy 80,000 dollars worth of sensitive electronic equipment. He just overwrote the last data set and destroyed the electrode (which wasn't a very important run anyhow). I tested the equipment and it's all fine. This is good for him

I was away for 20 minutes to get lunch. That was when he decided that getting his picture taken with the photographer required him going into the lab unsupervised and playing with the computer.

Then he started the equipment running (by accident?) but the equipment was not set up to run and voltage overloaded numerous times.

When he came upstairs and found me, he didn't mention this, as he was busy telling me he got his picture taken.

I told him he was never, ever, ever to go into the lab alone again. Ever. Then I sent him home.

It was better than setting him on fire, I guess.

Saganaki, anyone?

Kill the minion! Kill the minion! Kill the minion!

BTW, I went back and did a little research. I saw your hubby's photos. Yum! Is the other hot guy in his lab single...?

He probably wants more cheese. Give him more cheese.

You showed remarkable restraint. Maybe you could get a taser and just shock the minion a couple of times???
