Some followers may recall that during covid I shared my work simulating laminar plumes and testing an analytical model of the approaching flow. Some people with minds in the gutter (*wink wink*) called them "dick plumes". Anyway, Alan Shapiro and I are close to submitting our dick-plume manuscript.

Meanwhile, the New York Times saw fit to run an op-ed on our Independence Day — written by a goober — telling us not to vote.

me, tiptoeing into the den of happiness after submitting a manuscript to end a bit of a professional drought, only to remind myself about the three other papers that are more than a half-decade late.
