I was browsing through our journal collection at work when I came across something that struck me as really amusing:

Now you might think that I am making a not so nice jab at my unmarried counterparts looking for partners. I'm not. Really. I actually met my wonderful, awesome, incredible husband through a now defunct web-personals site (at least in the incarnation that I posted to it on): www.love.com. So I really have no problem with people finding people through the web! In fact, I know several friends who found themselves the software engineer of their dreams this way. No, what amused me most about this is "Singles In Science" nestled in between "Brain Histology" and instrumentation ads in the (mostly) biological news journal The Scientist. It just seems so out of place to me, and that's what made if seem so funny. One stop shopping for HPLC purified oligonucleotides, pre-owned lab equipment and spouses!
