double hump camel :D

Its name begins with a "B" -- Bactrian -- if you look at it sideways, the double hump resembles a B. (A single hump camel is a Dromedary, and resembles a D from the side.)

much fun is being had :)

;D

Travis you know you animals.

^this is a ditty about Sally the Camel, in case you're loath to open an unvetted link ;)

Best one so far

I could always remember dromedary but always forgot the other one. Whatever, it was,

When my son was a toddler he had a amazing ability to repeat anything. Say "ambidextrous"..."ambidextrous". He also had a quirk that If you gave him a choice between two things he would choose the latter. So he and I were at the zoo with a biologist friend of mine and I asked my boy, "Is that camel Dromedary or Bactrian?" and he says "Bactrian". I repeated this trick a few more times before finally letting my friend in on the gag.

“When determining whether spontaneously broken non-Abelian gauge theories preserve perturbative unitarity through BRST symmetry and cancellation of ultraviolet divergences, must the resulting electroweak theory ultimately be nonrenormalizable or renormalizable?”
-Brian to his son with his Quantum Field Theory friend nearby, probably.

gesundheit!

Brian, I love that story! David, you’re funny!
