So...I figured I would start with a picture of the school's founder. I honestly think this man looks like a gorilla. I will let you form your own opinion, though...
WRONG!You see that little red piece on the end?
You apply suction to that end...with your mouth...
That's right...you are sucking up BULL SEMEN into a pipette WITH YOUR MOUTH!
What's to protect you if you suck too hard?Absolutely nothing...That was my morning.
I did spend a lab in the past couple of weeks cutting open a sheep heart. That was pretty cool. I'll put in a picture below. [Note: It's a little gory, so be prepared!]
Those little stringy looking things? Those are chordae tendinae or the so called "Heart Strings"!

I also spent a few hours looking at teeth!
That is a very unattractive picture of me holding a lion's skull!
Here is Kathy posing with a dolphin skull!
I also got to take some pictures of the new school campus that will (hopefully) open next year. The vet hospital is up and running, and we're patiently waiting for them to finish the teaching building.
Here's the school's flock of sheep that greet you as you drive into campus. By greet, I of course mean stare at you dumbly and/or run away.
Last but not least, I complain the food here at Pollock A LOT! I figure from now on, I will post a few pictures from dinner every day with a commentary on the meal. I also plan on keeping a running tally of nights they serve carrots (I would do potatoes, but they have those every night without fail)...You be the judge. If you would eat this, I'll complain less.
Tonight's Dinner:
Crofter's Pie?I have no idea what this is, and it looked too much like baby diarrhea for me to want to try it...
This was Spring Mash (Potatoes), Cheesy Pasta Bake, Carrots (Day 1...), and Chicken and Mushroom Casserole.
The potatoes and carrots were just that, no salt or butter. The chicken and mushroom casserole was composed of chicken...no mushrooms, nothing else to make it a casserole...just chicken that tasted like licorice was added to it...Yuck...
The cheesy pasta bake was the worst. The sauce tasted like they'd mixed water with a little milk and added some kind of thickener. There was no taste of cheese at all. On top of that, the sauce was chunky/gritty...Yuck...
