Word is that Duke is very hopeful that Ryan Kelly will be back the last week of the regular season. @ESPNCBB

As I was walking thru the halls of this senior living establishment in a Duke shirt (what else do I have to wear?) I once again discovered there are Duke fans everywhere! One elderly gentleman even said, "I went to UNC but I am a Duke fan!" Smart cookie huh? It definitely is a conversation starter! Wish I'd brought more of these! :)

I'm glad that you brought a smile to that gentleman's face today. But more importantly, I'm glad that he spoke to you and gave YOU a smile, ID!

Still holding you and Papa ID in my thoughts and prayers. . .

Bragging aunt alert: Saw niece Elizabeth in Annie last night. She was AMAZING! The whole cast and crew did a great job. The students designed and constructed the sets. They did a fantastic job. I'm looking forward to two more performances today.

Wile E. Coyote revealed his ignorance again yesterday, this time in front of another colleague. WEC asked me a question and then proceeded to cut me off as I was answering his question. I finally just stopped talking and let him babble. Then, at the end of his monologue, he announced (like it was a major accomplishment) that his database search computer was working and he had successfully searched some of his files against his preferred protein database (IPI). WEC also announced that he also had to buy his own copy of an expensive database search engine that we already have on campus because IPI wasn't loaded onto the search engine's server. After he bragged about his database searches, I asked, oh so diplomatically, "Why are you using IPI? It isn't even being curated any more." He resonded with, "Who told you that? It's the database I always use for my work. I've been using it for years. (rant, rant, rant)"

After he left, my colleague said, "What the hell did you do to piss him off? He asks you questions and then interrupts when you try to answer! Is he always that way?" I responded in the affirmative. He then said, "What the hell is he doing, using IPA? No one uses IPA! Does he even read the literature? Holy hell! What an idiot!"

Just to be sure I was right, I went to IPI's website. The entire homepage is an announcement that the database hasn't been updated since Sept 2011 and is being phased out. Yep, our newest world's expert doesn't even know which database is the standard one for the field. If he didn't know IPI was going away, he obviously hasn't even attempted to update his protein database since at least Sept 2011. AND he wasted around $5000 to buy a program we already have so that he can use his obsolete protein database. =)) Dumbass.

Yep. I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the show. I really wish I hadn't asked him about the database. The good thing is that he thinks I'm wrong. I'll just continue to stay as far away from him as possible.
