------- Forwarded foolishness follows -------
If you want to find a chemist, ask him/her to discuss the
following words:
mole
unionized
"If they start talking about furry animals and organized labour,
keep walking."
"You might just be a chemist" if:
You pronounce "unionized" with 4 syllables....
You keep a picture of Mme. Curie over your desk -- and it turns
you on.
You named your firstborn after one of the lanthanides, and than
felt compelled to have more until you had the whole set.
When you had an unexpected sixteenth child, you just had to name
him actinium, and now you're not sure how to stop.
You know that Anal. Chem. is not the title of a raunchy video.
You think that fresh air smells bad.
You're a chemist if you wash your hands BEFORE you use the
bathroom. And you never rub your eyes, pick your nose, etc.
You're out of college, out of money, out of work, and out of
prospects and still won't take a job without a lab!
You played with explosives as a kid - and still have all your
fingers.
Your favorite activity is testing the water in the fish tank -
and you don't even have any fish.. (if you have fish, you are a
biochemist).
You wonder just _what_ the lubricant in that condom is made
from...
You can spell desiccator and ytterbium without getting caught
out during your word processor's spell check
You arrive at home after half an hour's driving to discover you
are still wearing your lab safety glasses.
You experience moments of alarm when you realize you're not
wearing safety glasses...to cook bacon.
You get irritated that the ingredients list on your shampoo
doesn't use IUPAC nomenclature.
