I imagine I’ll get to meet some of the DMD students today, as we have a meeting for the Engineering school. Therefore, I shall wear my “Molybdenum is the Answer” t-shirt. I predict the following will happen.

Random Engineer: Hey, what does your shirt mean?

Me: It’s a reference to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Molybdenum has an atomic number of 42.

All Engineers: Ha ha ha ha ha!

Really Hot Engineer #1: The Hitchhiker’s Guide? Wow, what impeccable taste in literature. Perchance are you familiar with the works of Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, JK Rowling, various other nifty authors, and then stuff like the movie versions ofX-Men and Lord of the Rings?

Me: Yay!

Really Hot Engineer #2: Hey, I’m told that my accent sounds quite a lot like Billy Boyd’s. And Percy is not evil. Will you be my girlfriend?

Really Hot Engineer #1: But I have just developed a formula that will transform me into Alan Cumming, except not gay. I will speak to you in Scottish and German accents. I will read the phone book to you. And I’ll give you shoulder massages and vote Howard Dean. Could you love a man such as I?

Me: Meeble wrble sculp.
