Agenda December 11

1 Test Isotopes and Half Life

I am excited I got picked to do Spartan FM.  My list of music is 1960's TV show themes.  I have offered the staff a $5 Starbucks card for the first email to tell me the theme.  Since none of us look at each others web pages, No one will figure out the answer is here.

Miniatures club will be making rocks from styrofoam and playing Aerodrome.

I am going to another LCPH party tonight.  This time, the department of Pediatrics.  The doctors at Packard are all so warm.  Many of them have children in middle school and it is encouraging to know that they have no idea what to do with them either.
