In Walter’s lab notes this week, he mentions several mnemonics. After some quick Googling, I was able to find the meaning of some of them…

Unfortunately, I had no luck finding any meaning for the others. Does anyone have any ideas for these ones…

•See the dog jump around in a circle: Regarding this one, i found an almost identical one [excepting for the A of Around] which reads [on its entirety]: “See The Dog Jump In A Circle. Leave Her Home To Entertain Every Visitor Here”, which stands for
{State, Treasury, Defense, Justice, Interior, Agriculture, Commerce, Labor, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Transportation, Energy, Education, Veteran’s Affairs, Homeland Security}. All government departments.
•My Goodness but eating hot nachos causes pain: Countries of Central America from north to south [Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama]
