Winning Women :)

I entered Advisor's office while he was reading about the 2009 Nobel Prizes on some website.

Advisor: Oh man Nobel Prizes are out and they don't give me any!!!

Me (jumping closer to his screen trying to catch something I could read): Wow! Two women win the Medicine Prize!!

Advisor: Yeah, two women and a guy.

Me (delightfully): But two women!!!

Advisor: But how come I don't get anything???!

Me: Don't worry. Better luck next year.

Advisor: Oh yesssss. Next year is another year!!!


It turns out that three other ladies get Nobel Prize this year.

So congrats to Elizabeth Blackburn, Carol Greider, Elinor Ostrom, Herta Mueller, and Ada Yonath (and to all other Men winners, of course). Great job!!!
