Jesus Christ! I feel like I’ve been asleep for a thousand years. How long...

Awesome Sween Week Graphics
Let it be known that the amazing Girlmonkey made these graphics for me. They are amazing. Look at them. Amazing. Did you look at them? Maybe look at them again. Then follow Girlmonkey on Twitter. Then look at them again. Print them out. Tape them to your mirrors.
(She’s a great writer, too.)
Thank you, Ms. Monkey. Thank you very much. My apologies for neglecting to mention this already.

Returning Very Soon
Kip here again. The Prof is finally starting to feel better. His skin is healing nicely from all of the road rash he suffered during his Canadian border-crossing disaster from a few weeks ago, and he’s excited to get his research going again. He’s afraid everybody stopped reading this a long time ago. It’s not actually true; we’re down to about fifteen “tumblr...

Kip here. Well, so Prof. Starky was going to do Sween week this week, but all sorts of things have gotten in the way.

I Have Got To Get It Together, People
Guys. Guys. Look. C’mere. Guys. Look.
I need to tell you something.
The “tweets,” guys. You know. The “tweets”? My research? Something’s wrong.
All the “tweets” seem obvious, now. It’s like a switch was flipped, and now all the “tweets” seem normal and obvious and there’s no deeper truths and onionic layerings and subtle...
"Twootenanny" Post-Mortem
Kip here. Prof. Starky just got back from the “Twootenanny” in Pittsburgh. He made many great observations of the “tweeters” in their natural habitat from an airduct near where many of the “tweeters” were sitting. Let me share some of his notes with you:
They hand out paper hearts and stars to one another in person, which is interesting. Some of them seem...

Administrivia
So, somehow I’ve managed to get 300 tumblr “followers” for my research. This is really good news, and I’m pretty sure I’m a shoo-in for that parking space in the University annex lot. (Gaining a space there will reduce my commute time by 37%!) Just to seal the deal, I’m sending around a form for you all to sign, starting with my first follower (a very kind Mr....

Thank you
The initial response to my research has been overwhelming, and your comments (both good and bad) have definitely been appreciated. Thank you. If I get enough of you “following” then I might get you all to sign a thing so that I can get free parking in the university annex lot. Thanks again.
