I went over my parents house to drop of the four year old this morning and found a plastic bag in the driveway. Inside was "The Baltimore Sun" printed on actual paper--if you can imagine such a thing--and on the the front page (it's like an analog "home page") was a big picture of one my favorite Catonsville based author/professor/archeologist/forensic anthropologist, Dana Kollmann. She's going to Haiti help identify the remains of US citizens. I knew she was going but when I was over her house (her husband Bob and I took our respective kids sledding on Catonsville's traditional sledding hill all day Sunday) she never once mentioned any forthcoming article. Naturally, in a profile that's referencing such a horrible task the article can only hint at her supremely quirky and irrepressible sense of humor. I recommend you read her book, "Never Suck A Dead Man's Hand: Curious Adventures of a CSI" . Seriously were I a Hollywood producer I would definitely option it for a cable series. Do you hear me, Hollywood?
By the way the "Hi Dana" title is a bit misleading--neither she nor Bob know I'm blogging yet.
