    Or you're carrying narcotics at a large drug rehab group meeting. Then it's a bad, bad omen. :#;)

  • Another interesting bit of info/history: From TastingTable.com

    If you thought that nothing good could come from a pig's rear end, you'd be dead wrong. In honor of 10 years of innovation and its very first "Best Rye" award, WhistlePig Distillery is releasing a limited-edition straight rye whiskey — and it's been given unique packaging.

    In a press release sent to Tasting Table, Whistlepig says its limited edition PiggyBank Rye will come in a replica Berkshire Bitter Pig decanter that serves its whiskey up from the pig's backside. Peachridge Glass reports that the Berkshire Bitter Pig was a marketing tool used in the late 1800s. The bottles were often made by Amann & Co. of Cincinnati, which at the time was referred to as "Porkopolis" due to its abundance of pork-producing slaughterhouses. With business booming in the region, pigs became a sign of prosperity for the region. And, they also happened to be fed a primary diet of corn, which is one of the key ingredients in whiskey.

    WhistlePig might be based in Vermont (@mhardy6647 territory) instead of Cincinnati, but that didn't stop the company from taking some porcine inspiration to mark its milestones.

    The PiggyBank Rye is a celebration of this legacy of innovation: It's a 10-year-old straight rye whiskey that is bottled at 110 proof and available at premium liquor stores throughout the U.S. for $199.99.

    WhistlePig says they also bottled a very special 20-year-old whiskey in an original 19th century Berkshire Pig decanter and auctioned it off to benefit charity. Its auction lot closed at a winning bid of $125,000 from Rally 2 Give and included the opportunity to custom finish a barrel of 20-year whiskey at WhistlePig's experimental aging warehouse. All proceeds from the auction went to benefit the Gumball 3000 Foundation.

    I worked at a large FedEx Express station, 150 trucks plus 70 rentals when I retired. The police used to regularly bring the drug sniffing dogs to walk the belt sniffing packages. Sometimes at night for outbound packages, sometimes early morning for inbound.

    They didn't want to risk the dog getting run over by a driver entering or leaving building with vehicle, so they always brought the dog through the maintenance shop. If we had an open bay, he would bring the dog in for a break and throw the tennis ball against the bay door. I don't do drugs but would always think, just go by, just go by...lol

    I wrote a question in one of the homework assignments I give my "Introduction to Glycobiology" students that features a contract research organization, Acme Labs, headed by one Wile E. Coyote, PhD.
    Well... I think it's funny.

    Mark, like the reference. Is there any (secret) humor in any of the science stuff, aside from the fact that whatever this is is likely to explode in the COO's face and launch him off a cliff with the cliff outcropping snapping off soon to flatten the COO after he hits the canyon floor?

    And did your students get it?
    Meep! Meep!

    no, not really. I just thought of Wile E. Coyote, Super Genius when I wrote the question.
    The answer is, of course, is that there's variable region glycosylation in the "new mAb" B)

    Do they get it? Rarely but not never. I had a student during COVID (remote classes only, which was nice... no drive to Boston every week) who loved my Monty Python references.

    Remote classes? Are they just 5 minutes or a full half hour?
