Holy marsupial moles batman!
Wow, I've only got half a paragraph to go and I'm still procrastinating. This may be a new record. If your interested in marsupial moles this article in Nature is worth checking out
If you're not interested in moles maybe you should check out drunken cyclist for a run down on the SSWC and some very wrong stuff.

24hrs to go....
I live for 24 hr endurance events, maybe thats why I have worked so hard to ensure I still have to come up with 1000 words to say about N. Typhlops (Southern MArsupial moles in human speak) in the next 24 hrs. So let's waste some time by giving everyone who doesn't care a little insight into these little critters.
They're small.
They live underground munching on ant larvae.
They're marsupials
Foxes, dingoes and cats like them (which is a bad thing)
Scientists have a hard time finding them
They have no eyes
They don't live long in captivity
They live in sand dunes
they're very cute
They've been around for a while (60MY)
I hope they don't go extinct.
Now I have to make those 11 points take up 6 pages.....

Procrastination in extremis
You can tell I've got an essay due in a few days, my frequency of blog entries is climbing rapidly.
Observations from the last 24hrs:
Jogging is a very slow way to get anywhere
Beer is good
Waking up is easier on sunny days than rainy days
Sitting in a computer lab is easier on rainy days than sunny days
My neice Lucy has TWO really good blogs
My neice Lucy hasn't put a link to my blog on either of her blogs
Coffee is food but I'm still hungry
Stupid lists like this are stupid

It's life Jim..
Quick distraction away form what was definitely resembling school work. Yes, despite all appearances, I am alive. Unfortunately that is all I have to say right now. I could go on about how I'm pissed that both of my XC bikes are out of action, I could spread the juicy gossip that others I know are already spreading, but I'll save you all the agony.
I feel I should put something cool in here, maybe a link to something exciting or a photo of something excrutiating, but I won't.
Coffee is food and I'm hungry.
