Schweet!!
Thats something im pretty used to... to see cell
organeles in my food... in fact im forced
to arrange it, to be more physiologicaly
acurate. I guess more of scientist recognize those
familiar patterns along their day in all kinds
of unusual things...
Ha. It brings new meaning to the term 'street smarts.'
Coincidentally, I just wrote a post about neurons and pareidolia. Check it out if you have a second...

While I do claim sole responsibility for this "discovery", I also want to give some credit to the mystery sauce/infected tomatoes inside the Chipotle burrito that I consumed just prior to the sighting. They may be partly responsible for the cognitive disruptions necessary to induce the neuron's emergence from the pavement.
I still think we should have jackhammered that chunk of the parking garage out and sold it on ebay.
