Biology Eclipses Physics in Smasher Race

Ok, so physicists fired up the Large Hadron Collider at Cern this week. Very impressive but not to be outdone "Scientists from the Evolutionary Acceleration Research Institute (EARI) announced that the first test of the Giant Animal Smasher (GAS) will begin on December 19, 2008, the 41st anniversary of the premiere of Dr. Dolittle."
In an effort to finally discover the "Darwin Particle" scientists will start small by colliding microscopic lifeforms such as viruses but the collider can hand lifeforms up to the size of squirrels. Thus the nickname "squirrel smasher". Thank you for the link Pharyngula.

Yellow Thunder Woman

Don't know why but for some reason I was thinking about the Bastard Fairies today wondering whether they'd released anything new lately. Sadly no. But I thought I'd post a link to the Rollerskate Song anyway.

Palin for VEEP !

I've changed my mind, I think Palin would be a good choice as heartbeat away from the oval office.

Follow the Box

For some reason I find this rather interesting. The BBC has tagged a shipping container with a gps device and will follow it on it's journeys. At the moment it appears to be sitting in Southampton waiting to start it's trip but I for one will be checking in regularly. There's something fascinating about web stories that develop over time. Thanks J-Walk.

Mystical Atheistic Appearance


Now here's something you don't see every day. Not one of your typical Mary on a grilled cheese or Jesus on a tree trunk. Oh no, now this is something I can really get into.

Creation Science 101

I came across Roy Zimmerman some time ago. He's a tremendous satirical whit. Couple that with an impressive musical talent and you have someone who cuts right to the heart of the problems inherent in the American political system. This is one of my favorites but you really should check out the whole song list at YouTube.
Also check out his website: www.royzimmerman.com. Enjoy.
