Not much to tell you about today. Busy work day after a long weekend -- lots waiting for me.
So here's a little video to give you something to do. It's part of an interview with Gene Wilder, who is a Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma surviver. It's about 8 minutes long, and opens with the "Puttin' On The Ritz" scene from Young Frankenstein. He talks about meeting his wife, and then, about 4 minutes into it, he talks about his NHL. He had chemo, then saw a specialist at Sloan-Kittering, who told him it would likely come back, and recommended a stem cell transplant. (Stem cells can come from other compatible people, or from oneself, if your own blood is clean enough.) He's in complete remission now.
Enjoy the video.

A friend of mine and I were talking about male actors that weren't traditionally heartthrobs but that we thought were attractive. Gene Wilder was the first person that came to mind. Even in his early 70's I find him very attractive. Needless to say she never let me hear the end of it.
You didn't think I'd sign this did you? I've been down that road before.
On the topic of videos, here's a link to one I told you about, Bob. Another prof with a great attitude. You teach us all.
