This has to be one of the funniest/strangest blogs:blog.tenderbutton.com
He recently performed NMR and TLC on his earwax.
I love his rant on old crappy bottles of reagents. (Great graphics too!)
And his love for dirt cheap reagents with antiquated warning lables.
I really like this TBSCl, mainly because of the packaging. The bottle looks like a giant pickle jar. The best part is the little corrosive warning icon. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be that familiar graphic of the acid melting through the guys hand, but it's so poorly rasterized and pixellated that it's almost unrecognizable. Awesome.
I like it!
(P.S. Dear ScienceBlogs - GET THIS GUY after the withdrawal of FrinkTrank we need some extra wackiness!)
I once knew a technician who, when his restriction digests didn't work, would write "BAD" on the tube of buffer - and then put them back in the freezer.
One of my favorite blogs. Seed should give this person a blog and a regular feature in the magazine.
This guy is super-cool.
