| okay okay okay, so a question often posed to me, particularly by b, is:
where do you get all those zany and occasionally embarrassing factoids and websites with which to make casual conversation with?
usually, i'll admit, i am just merely passing along factoids culled from other sites and blogs from the great, great thing that is the internet. such as, the fantastic website that is: lasagna cat! just go watch it and realize the greatness of the internet. also: bibbity bobbity bacon.
other times, serendipty leads me to completely and randomly great things, such as: some dude blogging about ties. lots and lots of ties.

| in honour of mole day, practically the only day that celebrates chemistry[1], here are some mole-related puns, borrowed from the official mole day website. why are jokes involving the word "mole" so gosh darn funny to me?
Q: Why is it bad to tell mole jokes?
A: It's mole-itically incorrect
Q: What did Avogadro teach his students in math class?
A: Moletiplication
Q: What kind of fruit did Avogadro eat in the summer?
A: Watermolens Q: Why was there only one
Avogadro?
A: When they made him, they broke the Moled
Q: What is Avogadro's favorite kind of music?
A: Rock 'N' Mole
1: It's on today: 10/23. This is supposed to make sense because 1 mole = ~6 x10^23, though I'm pretty sure all the other, more popular geeky holidays are the other way around (Pi day is on March 14th: 3/14). I suspect that chemists, or rather chem teachers and professors, realized that any celebration held in the 6th month, June, would be when classes were out.
Also, did you know that there is a square root day?
Also, why doesn't e get its own day? Google seems to agree with me.
