Help a Poor but Honest Grad Student

My friend Shelley Batts is competing for the 2007 Student Blogger scholarship.



She's beautiful, she's brilliant, she's doing worthy work (you're gonna need new cochlear hair cells one of these days, bucko!) and she's got a parrot.

    OK, done. But Dear Shelly is running neck and neck with Kimberly Klein and they are both getting their clocks cleaned by Grant Brisbee.

    OK. Done. And I see she goes to school just down the road in Ann Arbor. She needs more votes.

    I voted for the African Grey's (best parrot in the world) owner. Rachel Carson quotes mitigated my enthusiasm.

    Give her a break, Rick. She's young and she lives in Ann Arbor.

    Seneca,

    I did. I even went back and tried to vote again this morning. Her taste in parrots far outweighs attachment to Carson.

    Interestingly, Shelley doesn't look near as cute in her pictures as she does IRL.
