Dargan Frierson at UW Atmospheric Sciences' holiday party

Absolute Vorticity
my friend brought me a gift last night
it was a bottle of vodka he said was alright
he said it was distilled at a high latitude
he said "take a drink", i didn't want to be rude
i felt the room begin to spin
i lay back and felt the relative motion
getting dizzy like i took one on the jaw
cause i forgot the conservation law
cause it's got absolut vorticity
absolut vorticity
headin' to inebriation
experiencin' rapid rotation
absolut vorticity
losin' my stability
cause with every shot i downed
it makes the room go round and round and round and round and round
scrawled on the bottle in strange notation
indicates that it can cause rotation
i forgot the effect of beta
and 2 omega sine of theta
well i'm gonna stay away from this potion
cause i can't handle all the relative motion
i know this spinning's just in my frame of mind
but tell yourself that when you try to walk a straight line
absolut vorticity
absolut vorticity
headin' to inebriation
experiencin' rapid rotation
absolut vorticity
strong in its intensity
cause with every shot i downed
it makes the room go round and round and round and round and round
Reminds me of that other scientific principle, centriketel force. (Hey, I tried to think of something combining plate tectonics and vodka tonics, but it didn't really work.)
