Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for May 22, 2010
Transcript:
Jeffrey: Whatcha doin', Danae? Danae: Scientific research. Jeffrey: Really? On what? Danae: Where the sun sets. Jeffrey: Um... why? Danae: 'Cuz there's big bucks in researching stuff we already know... The trick is milking it as long as you can. Jeffrey: Oh... Who's funding it? Danae: Umm... I was counting on a bidding war. Jeffrey: First principle of science, Danae... Get the funding secured before you conduct the research.

That’s the reason why nerds (like him) go to school, Danae…to learn. You just “go” to school.

Danae, funding is easy. All you do is get on your knees and say, “Please may I kiss your butt, please Sir?” Repeat about 100 times. Danae, can you do that?

No Danae, If you want to start a bidding war. You have to promise to tell them something they don’t already know. And that you will only tell them after they pay you money.

Danae, you have put your cart before your horse. And your horse has more horse sense than you do. And all my quips about horses is making me hoarse.

After God created Danae he/she ran away to a far far place where he/she could watch the fun from a distance.

Ok, poohbear, you made me laugh out loud with this one!

I hope Gorbul is more careful in the future. It turned out that the worm is very warm!

Actually, Danae had it right. She needs preliminary data in order to get funding secured.
James Lindley Premium Member almost 14 years ago
Except that once you know who’s funding you, you know what results you need to massage the data to come up with.

I’m going to keep this one as a battle cry!

I know someone commented on the funding part earlier this week. But I was expecting a more…thunderous reaction by Danae when she realized there’s no funding.
