Juice Tiger

What do you do when you're fast approaching a MAJOR fruit crisis because you have an excess of oranges from your organic delivery service?

You buy a juice tiger, that's what.

My Major Paper as a Word Cloud

I found "Wordle" on my interweb machine. Worlde "is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text."

I pasted in my entire major paper, excitingly titled "Xenotransplantation: Weighing the Benefits and the Harm", and this came out (click to embiggen):

It's nice to see that hundreds of hours of work can be reduced to a cloud of 100 words.

I don't think I will ever type the word "xenotransplanatation" that many times in one document again.
