New toys

Today after class I got to play with a $2 Million MRI scanner, holding metal objects in its magnetic field and listening to a demonstration of the lovely 110 decibel sounds it makes during various image acquisition sequences.

Later today I got to play with my stocking stuffer for the first time, a potato masher, making a tasty batch that will last several days.

To be perfectly honest, I don't know which was more fun.
