I lost my cell phone and I don't plan on replacing it. So if anyone needs to contact me it should be through e-mail (steweric@isu.edu or stew0205@umn.edu).

We (the geology department) defeated the biology department in the annual keg-off. We finished our full sized keg in 36 minutes. It was a good night. Our two departments have competed in the keg-off for somewhere around 15 years and geology has never lost despite always being heavily outnumbered (there are around 100 graduate students in biology versus 15 in geology). We also brought in a bunch of valuable undergrads and a couple of profs to help. One of our profs hushed the crowd and gave a rousing speech at the conclusion of the contest congradulating biology on their excellent effort, reminding us to respect our interdepartmental collegues, and at the end to "let the taunting begin!" It was great.
