Rick ‘discovers’ his halfling student Christina

Rick and Christina on the aft deck of the Thomspon

Late Friday afternoon during Oceanography Happy Hour, Rick and Christina discovered that they not only share responsibilities for the sediment trapping on the upcoming senior undergraduate thesis research trip to Glacier Bay Alaska, but they also share a birthday and nearly a birth hour.  Turns out that Rick is almost exactly twice as old as newly 22-yr old Christina.   Viva la March 2…  Happy birthday to Dr. Suess, who was also born on that wonderful day and would be 104 if he were still alive.

Rick has taken calling Christina ‘the halfling’.  Christina is plotting her revenge.  You can read about the senior thesis class at the blog:  http://courses.washington.edu/ocean444
