The Best of Quiche: The posts I liked the most

... in inverse relation to how much they got read. In other words, for some reason, you missed these and you shouldn't have. Now is your chance to catch up. There's only two.

The first one is serious and meaning drenched:
Our Conversations Are Like a Cold Fruit Salad on a Dusty, Hot, Summer Day ... It is about the value of not being a complete asshole all the time just because you seem to be getting away with it.

The second one is as far from serious as I get, and the closest you'll ever see me approach scatological humor: When Your Field School Goes Into the Toilet. Technically, that's a repost but it's a rewritten repost.

Getting a job at an undergrad institution (partial repost) I: expectations
The economy might be scary, but I've seen ads for academic jobs already. And for geoscience grad students, the first conference is only a little more than a month away. So I'm going to revise and repost a series that I wrote on my old blog, about getting a job at a predominantly undergrad…
