That's brilliant cuz we occasionally use (I say occasionally because it's debatable if it works well) Russian e-stim on post-op patients to strengthen the quadriceps

haha. Now if only I could get that shit to make my shoulders stronger

It'll just make you involuntarily lift your arms up and down for 10 minutes and then you'll feel tired afterward. Progress!

Great, now I'm going to be saying "Jaaaames Baxter" all day in that voice.

CONGRATS MATE!…great news.

Bahah! Thanks for the James Baxter gif conk. When it first popped up I laughed my ass off, and have been having subsequent giggles ever since.
So glad we can talk about cool shit to warp our childrens minds. Yesterday my son was at daycare, the rest of us were home sick, he's the vector. So we were watching the mighty boosh and my daughter was casing. She's only 12 months, so that's a good sign I think.
Congrats to Corey on the incoming baby bomb!
Nick, you and the missus are planning kids after your done studying or so? Did I hear you mention that a while back?
So many good cartoons man. It sounds like your dad is preparing already....

That laser story was friggin cool.
More of those please.
You PHD dudes could mastermind us a device.....a device for a day....a day of.....iunno.......doom, perhaps?



Also, forgot to post this yesterday as I was too busy feeling chuffed, but I got into the course I wanted next year.
So back to uni for me. And turning my life around.
Which feels really good.

sweet man…what are you studying? and what uni you going to?

Grad. Dip. Education.
Gonna teach early primary kids, prep to grade 2.
Got into QUT, which was my first preference, and strangely enough my grandad went there to study teaching back when it was the dedicated school for that. I did my psych at QUT as well.
The Dip. is just one year, so I'm super stoked to get into it. Word is they wanna phase it out as well. I think this may even be the last year they're going to offer it.

Thanks for the well wishing guys. The wife was all nervous before the ultrasound and said to me "what if our baby has horns or something?". I gave the only acceptable answer "then our baby will be fucking metal".

Alas, no horns, we do have a healthy little sweet pea sized bundle of joy with a beating heart though.

I think to ensure a healthy pregnancy, I'll need to fill the house with more Dunwich pedals.

Great news man! Congrats to you and the Missus.
Bummer about the horns though. That would have been cool.

The dream will never die, so long as I own a hot glue gun.

That healthy with strong heart beat part is the only part that counts.
Well done, sir. Well done.
Horns or not aside...

Holy shit, I just realized you're the handsome beard etching dude! I've been admiring your work on facebook recently.

are you a lazer guy

like pew-pew lazer shit
or measuring shit or what?
tell us a goddamn lazer story

Yeah I do physical chemistry, so not really mixing chemicals and that kind of thing - more working with high power ultrafast lasers and doing experiments with them. Most of my personal stories are sad stories like buying $2000 crystals and then accidentally drilling holes in them with the laser, BUT our safety inspector did tell us about when he worked for a big laser company and there was a guy working on one of the high voltage power supplies who caused it to arc into his body and his heart exploded out of his chest... so that's pretty metal...

That is me. Thanks for the kind words.

My grad experience was a horror story. I don;t have many kind things to say about it. Nick knows the full story, its long and boring. Basically, imagine the worst untenured professor cautionary tale that starts with "So I was a fifth year grad student, passed my candidacy exams" and ends with "so my advisor resigned as my advisor, is that possible or allowed? (It's not) I have until when when until she stops paying my tuition and salary to finish my master's thesis? 2 months? Awesome"

I did a weird gamish of analytical chem/ synthesis/ and pchem. My thesis was called "rational design of a directed energy transfer metallopeptide" or some shit. We would synthesize metal-binding peptide chains and bind them to various metals for a designed purpose. I designed a ruthenium/rhenium dipeptide that worked as sort of a molecular diode... could only transfer energy in one direction. You could excited the molecule at the rhenium wavelength and the ruthenium would fluoresce. It is wicked boring and totally useless.

I've put out lab fires, had numerous chemical burns, actually used an eye wash once. You know. Fun shit.
