Despite all her rage

She's still just a rat in a cage. Little J participated in an experiment for the psychology department today. They are studying babies to see whether they might see a series of colored shapes on a giant screen as more interesting or their own bibs. Little J seemed to have chosen her own bib.

She doesn't know it yet, but she actually follows a short line of lab rats. Back when I was in college, I was involved in some kind of hearing experiment. 3 times a week, I would sit in a sound proof room blindfolded and wearing headphones. They would set off sounds throughout the room and I would have to call our the rough coordinates of where those sounds came from. Doesn't sound like a lot of excitement but $6/hour wasn't bad beer money back then.
