Thank You
November 25, 2010
For all the online peeps, I am grateful on this day of Thanksgiving in the US.
For all the Scientopians and Sciblings and all of our MortalBlogEnemies at Nature Blog Network, Discover Blogs, PLoS blogs, Wired Blogs and most especially Lab Spaces, I am thankful.
All of the privateer blogs as well, for JUNIORPROF and DrDrA and Anonymoustache and Scribbler and AA and DirkH and everyone else who keeps writing interesting stuff to read….I thank you for your efforts to educate and entertain us all.
Above all else, the commenters. Oh am I ever thankful for the beccas and the Uncle Sollie Rivlins and daedalus2us and assorted jokers and snarkers…and the serious ones too.

Thanks to you fine young gentlemen for constantly coming up with top-quality posts on mentoring, funding, and grantsmanship issues. As I have contended for years, the DrugMonkey blog fills a niche in the scientific blogosphere that remains largely unmet among NIH grantees and aspiring NIH grantees. Combine you guys with writedit and it’s like matter becoming energy.
Belated Happy Thanksgiving to all of you.

“…and the serious ones too.”
You’re welcome:)
Seriously, mine seems to be a thankless existence on the academic blogs. Well, it’s not a popularity contest right? If you’re gonna tell it like it is you’re gonna piss people off.
Good thing I have healthy self esteem. I can be my own cheerleader. “Nice work on the cheerleader threads Isabel!”
Aww, shucks;)
Happy Thanksgiving weekend everyone!

And we, in turn, are most thankful for you, DM.
Guess I need to dust off the ol’ blog and put something up soon….have had a Fortunate Son post percolating for a while so maybe I’ll get that done…
