A personal tragedy of epically minor proportions

As I was making coffee this morning, I dropped my trusty Ozaukee Bank mug and broke it. It's the mug that I've had with me all through graduate school. It's been with me for every paper I've written here and it's probably directly responsible for every one of the ideas behind those papers. Ozaukee Bank mug, you will be missed.

As a side note, I'd like to thank whoever it is who had the original idea for coffee. You have put forward the cause of science by hundreds of years.
