> Ah geez! You guys are hilarious. For those wondering, yeah, I now make educational YouTube videos for The Field Museum in Chicago - my show is called [The Brain Scoop](http://www.youtube.com/thebrainscoop). These days, instead of trying to RAWK HARD, I channel my [inner Ms. Frizzle](https://www.instagram.com/p/Ba7aACCBTYR/?taken-by=egraslie).

> How is the inside? Did that drip down from the second floor?

> Yuup. We've got a 90yr old house with galvanized pipes in the walls- the burst one was pouring from a 2nd floor bathroom for god knows how long. It flooded to the outside, pooled around the foundation, and back into the basement.
