Bead in May...

We've had complaints about bead scarcity. Could it be our microscopes aren't what they claim? Or are the samples not up to par? These are questions that stir our souls.

In the back room, the coverslips are flamed, the glycerol dotted (on slides, shoes, and trousers), and the hallowed beads diluted, tested, and confirmed.

Honest, this is what it is all about--making the perfect bead slide.

Haiku that.
