Why You Are Still Alive - The Immune System Explained

"Earth, Wind & Fire - September (Official Music Video)" (Watch on YouTube)

Something I found today that I thought would interest my recently finished science class students (and anyone else who wants to learn about the immune system).

I know summer vacation has already started but learning never stops (I can hear the groaning now). And it's not an entirely boring video.

....I'd never forget the accent because it's awesome and important?

Are you drinking again Doc?

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

That's better.

...No? Can I not be this excited without copious amounts of fermented beverage?

You CAN....but it's the 4th of July and drinking (and over-eating) are practically required for all national holidays. So why buck tradition?

Someone has to be sober in case someone blows their hand off. Sadly, it was me who drew that straw, remember?

Not to mention, I think my liver's still trying to recover from the charity gala.

Oh, right. Lucky you!

I've got Labor Day, if that makes you feel better?

Hence the science. I did find some interesting videos to show for next year's class, though.

I feel sympathy for you, since right now I saw a few people walk by with beers and I had to stop myself from following them around like a lost puppy.

I'm sure your liver will be doing just fine by September!

Fingers crossed. :)
