I've got Ebola!


I stopped by UCSF Medical Center last Friday for some tests (nothing serious) and decided to poke around the bookstore on my way back to the parking garage. Right inside the door was an entire barrel full of these. Apparently this is the kind of thing medical students are collecting nowadays instead of Beanie Babies. That's ebola there up above, the notorious and super-deadly virus capable of turning your guts into a delicious banana-berry slurry...or at least something that looks kind of like that. My favorites are the STDs -- who knew syphilis was so cute? -- and I love the little bloodshot eyes on rabies. Also awesome: chickenpox, bedbugs and flesh-eating bacteria.
