Today is the first day of my Intro to Bioinformatics class. I keep checking my email for my login info but it hasn't arrived yet. So instead I'm trying to surreptitiously read my "Bfx for Dummies" book. It's actually pretty cool, there's some good stuff on sequence alignments and such in the back of the book. I want to learn to code though, so I can chuck a bunch of SNP or CNP data in an application and find correlations between patterns of CNPs and disease prognosis. Really. Ah well, in due time.

In the realm of totally random questions, does anyone have any tips or exercises for improving balance?

I like that comment about buying 2 beers! Dude, that's some smart thinking!
I think a good thing for balance is the old "ground and center". If you're properly grounded, it's easier to balance! Several good yoga poses for that, especially mountain pose. It's very active, even though you're just standing there with your eyes closed!

hehe - glad you like.
that actuallyuy came up when i was staying with a friend in germany about 12 years ago - we were out in cologne with some of her friends, and they were wondering why a kept ordering "zwei bier, bitte" whenever i was getting a drink for myself.
rather than admit that this was about the limit of my german, a came out with some rather drunken meta-physical crap about maintaining balance in your life...
