Is there anything geekier than blogging from the prom? Come on out to St Paul for the party—Mary and I are the pair in lab coats, and yes, that is just a squid in my pocket.

Who is going to blog serious stuff over the holidays? It's time to eat and drink and be merry. So, a silly meme is in order. Seen on Cyberspace Rendezvous (and a couple of other science blogs) (under the fold):
1. In two words, explain what ended your last relationship?
I moved 13000 miles away…
As you can see in this pic of (from left to right) Big Head Rob, Matt Nisbet, and myself, we were stylin' at Science Club Friday night in DC. Although no one, no one, could out-style Matt Nisbet's white blazer. I scoured the Washington, D.C., area for one to match, so that we would both be wearing…
Slacktivist has an interesting plan for abstinence education:
Two things I've never been able to figure out about "abstinence only" sex education.
1. Isn't it necessary, at some point, to describe what it is, exactly (or even generally), that they're supposed to be abstaining from?
2. Since the…
Does This Explain the Disaster That Was my High School Prom?
Bad-tempered women 'can blame it on genes'
Ever wonder why some women seem to be more ill-tempered than others? University of Pittsburgh researchers have found that behaviors such as anger, hostility and aggression may be genetic, rooted…
You're so cool, PZ.
Looks like fun. Hope you have fun. It looks like fun (though what is that thing in the bottom left of that picture?).
In the meantime, here's a comic some people might enjoy.
Whats the band like?
I hope its a Devo coverband if their palying the geek prom.
Or rather maybe Devo themselves.
In the morning, get a glass of tomato juice, add one jigger of vodka (2 oz.) and sip in between queasy feelings. Your head will feel much better... when it quits hurting.
Aww, no live blogging? Surely you can text us some intriguing insights while waiting in line at the punch bowl. I wanna see!
High. I am a physician, having moved to MN last year. I have an obsession with evolutionary biology and I am a fan of Richard Dawkins. I should say that like minded people are not, well, easy to come by locally. I stumbled on your blog while surfing and I thought maybe we could share some ideas. I will appreciate it if you get back to me.
Thank you,

I Demand Photos! I doubt I'll be online tomorrow until after 7 pm central time (taking a field trip to look at some seacliff geology near San Francisco before it's wiped out by uber-rainy-spring landslides) so I expect a full suite of Geek Prom photos by that time. Your hangover has _got_ to be done before then.
BTW, was it a LIVE squid? If so, shame on you!
Dr. Hos,
Are you talkin' to PZ or to everyone else? If PZ, you hould send him an email at pzmyers@pharyngula.org . If everyone else - most of us get talking about that sort of thing out in the comment threads. If you're looking for more one-on-one interaction with everyone else, it might be helpful to leave contact information (like an email address). Good luck, sir, and welcome to Minnesota.

I must say that I would never have thought that Minnesota would be such a place for an event like this one ... stupid stereotypes ;)
...and yes, that is just a squid in my pocket.
And here I thought you were just happy to be at the prom. ;-)
