new job starting next week

Woo! I'm going to be a researcher at UIC for the summer. I'll keep you posted on what that actually entails. But for now, I'm saying goodbye Archaeology. To say adios here's a list of misconceptions people have about archaeology.

Misconceptions about archaeology that people ALWAYS have:

1. There are no dinosaur bones. Ever. That's paleontology. Watch Jurrasic Park.
2. There are no whips. Watch Indiana Jones. However, there are sassy women.

Here's a more professional list:

Also, this is a temp research job for the Summer, hopefully it will be extended until November. Or I'll find something more suiting by then. Otherwise, you might see me saying Welcome Back Archaeology. Which is not nearly as fun or funny as Welcome Back Kotter. Let's face it, I'm not John Travolta. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZmlBTgaLEI


One last thing, in case you forgot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8DP5w9JdUQ

The theme song to "Welcome Back Kotter" is the best ever written.
