Medicine/Physiology Nobel Laureates Announced
Seehund writes "Today, the Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet announced the laureates of this year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Richard Axel and Linda B. Buck are jointly awarded the Nobel Prize for their discoveries in the field of odorant receptors and the organization of the olfactory system."

My dog has got no nose!
How does he smell?
Awful!
Professor: Eat it, everyone who's never won a Nobel Prize! And that includes you, Amy!
Amy: (sobs)
