So first, let me say up front before the corrections come rolling in that I didn’t do any research on the human brain, and therefore, I just assigned the functions to random locations. If you are trying to pass your anatomy exam based on anything contained within the world of Slightly Off-Topic, you are doing something very, very wrong.
That being said, wouldn’t that be a great surgery to offer some day? We spent the weekend in West Lafayette watching the Boilermakers roll over Northern Illinois in Basketball (okay — fair enough — it was only Northern Illinois) and Ohio State in football (though again, to be fair, who hasn’t beat Ohio State this year?!?). I do, however, find that every time I set foot on Purdue’s campus, I am hit smack dab in the middle of the forehead with this sense of regret that I never graduated from there.
An odd regret, perhaps, for a man that holds two degrees, but there you have it. When we left Indiana for California and a job at that wonderful old biotech, SyStemix, it was the right choice for my family, and honestly, my heart wasn’t in continued matriculation at the time. However, as soon as we had settled, financially, I went back to school, and it was a wonderful experience (though that full-time schooling and full-time job thing was a bit exhausting… God Bless Laurie for picking up the slack at home!). So, there’s no logical reason for it, but it is still… the great undone…
But whatever… someday. For now, there are more important things to be done… like convincing Laurie that just because Skyrim came out in Novemember, it doesn’t mean that I have to wait until Christmas in case “someone” wants to buy it for me…
…yeah… I’m losing that battle…
I see Purdue nearly lost to something called High Point. Sounds less like a college, and more like a brand of dog food. 😉
You’ll correct me if I’m wrong, I’m sure, but it seems to me that “nearly lost” is the functional equivalent of “won”, so I don’t see what all the vitriol is about (other than any depression induced by having to go through another year as an IU fan). 😉
However, Purdue does tend to depend too highly on Mr. Rah-bee Huh-mel, and while he is a fantastic player, he does have his off-nights. The ‘D’, also, is excessively fumble-fingered this year on rebounds, and they will have to improve that significantly if they wish to be a major factor this year.
Love it! I think “Corpus Conundrum” is my favorite bogus medical term now.
I was just going to go create a fake wikipedia entry to have some fun with it in this reply, but it turns out that Corpus Conundrum is an oft-used mystery title… makes sense in that genre as well…
I like your use better. If you do the Wiki entry, you’ve got to tell us! I’m totally checking it out!
