• I wanna be studied!

  Seriously, how do you get to be a runner for a study?

  I bring this up because Professor Daniel Lieberman has reported on his most recent findings re barefootery, and, well, here’s a clip:

  So that’s all good, and I would like to highlight and expound upon his proper application of the word, “hypothesis,” but I lost all focus when he mentioned the “habitual barefoot runner” they used for part of the study. I like how that sounds, “habitual barefoot runner.” Seriously, dude, I can quit anytime. Seriously. But more to the point, how do you get that gig? Even MORE to the point, how can I get that gig? That would be awesome. People would be like, “So, Mr. Sutcliffe, what do you do?” and I could say, “who, me? Why, I get studied. By scientists. I guess they want to see what makes this magnificent specimen tick. Can’t say I blame them, really.” Then they’d reply, “You’re a lab rat?” to which I’d retort, “Yeah, a lab rat. Like Splinter from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. You better check yourself before you wreck yourself, homes.”

  Professor Lieberman: call me.
