Even if I am participating in the defense by phone and even if the defender-in-question is herself a blogger. Still, everyone should click on over to Constance's blog for a moment and congratulate her.
Presumably this will be the only dissertation defense in which I will ever participate that includes the following exchange between faculty: "Are you really thinking about getting braces?" "No! I've learned that it's already bad enough that I'm circumcised!"

this is hilarious! connie is a weird one.
Connie was only indirectly responsible for that exchange. The faculty are weird ones.
i assume it was you and not the other (all women) committee members who made the comment about being circumcised.
Women can be circumcised, Dorotha, although the terms for it vary. In some parts of the world it is extremely common and the source of some controversy.
So I've heard.
Jeremy, I don't like to think of you like that.
No pictures, please ..... (you dandelion, you).
