This is wonderful! Can scientists dance? asks the "gonzo scientist" column in Science (it might be that you need a subscription to see it). Videos of scientists interpreting their PhD thesis in dance. I really liked the tango version of a galaxy captured by a larger galaxy. I was actually looking for this article about the COUPP dark matter search, but it's easy to get sidetracked nowadays.
And I suddenly very much miss dancing. I tried tango at a party in December, and some of it actually came back to me after the first stumbling turns. Maybe I should take it up again?

Sounds like fun, but I don't know where I will live and what I will do in 2009. We'll see.
