Some notes on Purim

First, Lis was, unfortunately, wiped out, so didn't come with me. So I went to shul by myself. As Lis couldn't wear the costume I made for her, I wore it instead.

I took an old t-shirt, and drew on it the chemical structures of 3-methylbutyl acetate, octyl butrate, pentyl acetate, methypropyl butate, pentyl butyrate, and a couple other molecule chains of the same family, along with the general formula of

     OR'

Which doesn't look good 'cause I don't know how to do the HTML pretty for chemical structures.

I wore a crown, and, for added verisimilitude, my Mad Scientists Local 42 logo lab coat.

Then I challenged people to guess which Purim character I was.

A good half-dozen or dozen people got it.
