Mug Shot

Professor Chaim (Chagi) Pick seems like a normative professor, who studies the molecular biology of trauma after blows to the head and other catastrophes. 

He seems the mild mannered type. I wonder who he traumatizes. 

But Chagi has a secret preoccupation. 

He collects mugs. Coffee mugs. From universities around the world. 

Round mugs, square mugs,

Here, there, and everywhere mugs. 

You name a college.

He’s got the mug. 

Mugs in every cranny and nook. 

From NYU to Stony Brook. 

And to top it off, 

He gives courses

On the history of sea horses. 

So who says that professor aren’t interested in anything but science?
