Random Analogies
Washington D.c.
a: Washington-dc ~
b: High School
What: The link is to the Q&A show with Brian Lamb interviewing John Hulsman. Hulsman is refreshing blunt about the current state of the USA and the freakyness that is Washington DC. In the interview he compares Washington DC to a high school, in that the people there want to be associated with the 'cool people. Cool , in the context, means people like Henry Kissinger and other famous types.

a: Protein phosphorylation ~
b: switch on an enzyme
What: "Phosphorylation happens when a phosphate group is added to a protein. Phosphorylation is like a switch that activates proteins, altering their function and changing cell signalling pathways. These signalling pathways are like cellular control panels. Deregulated cell signalling, when the control panel malfunctions, is a common hallmark of disease."

a: Ezekiel ~
b: riding the Magic Bus
What:
"If reading Jeremiah is like being trapped in an elevator with a claustrophobic rageaholic, reading Ezekiel is like riding the Magic Bus. Zeke is trippy, groovy, sometimes paranoid, always Technicolor. I had the munchies by Chapter 2."
