Welcoming 2006

Well, 2005 has been one hell of an interesting year. Well, Ok, it’s been one truly fucked up year. From God’s wrath on the poor heathen Asian countries this time a year ago to the senseless murder of a helpless brain-dead woman, to the introduction of...

Ramblings on Cloning

I’m up a little late tonight having a little trouble sleeping because I’m still messed up from the time fluctuation that occurs when you spend a week across country. So I’m catching up on my reading and ran across this post from Andy at World Wide Rant...

Kansas School Board makes an Un-Intelligent Decision

I half expected this to get through, so it's not much of a surprise but I'll comment on it anyway. The Kansas School Board voted 6-4 to modify the curriculum to allow teaching of Intelligent Design in science classes. The really sickening part however...

What have we missed

Ok, so it's going on a month now since my last post. I'm sorry! I've been pretty busy. I still can't imagine how the daily bloggers do it. How do they find the time to read the entire internet daily and comment on it several times throughout. I just don...

Weird claim by Dwight Yokum

So last night, I was watching the Daily Show with John Stewart, my all time favorite fake news show, and the guest was Dwight Yokum. I'm not a fan of Country music, so I was not very interested in listening to the interview, but the man grabbed my attention...

Been on a slump lately

I know I haven't been very consistent with updating my blog. But hey I've been busy ... no really ... I have, I swear. I was in Florida for a week getting my head stuffed with Microsoft marketing, then I was visiting my parents in Hudson, FL, went fishing...

What did Jesus Look Like as a Child?

So, I saw this last night on the local news here in CT, and have been looking around the usual blogs and it seems no one is commenting on this. So, I'm going to step in and for once be the first (at least amongst the blogs I read) It seems that an "elite...

Alien Planet

I just finished wathing Alien Planet on Discovery HD, and the best thing I can say is that the picture was absolutely beautiful in HD. Anyone remember Walking with Dinosaurs? The CG in that was amazing, so life-like. I found the CG in Alien Planet to...

Much Closer to Home

The disease is spreading, and it's getting uncomfortably close to home. If there was one place that I thought would be immune to this bullshit, it was the NorthEast. I guess I was wrong. Via Pharyngula: Please, make it stop. Will the lunacy never end...

Entire Kansas School Board Swept Away By Freak Tornado

One can wish can't he? Oh well, now that the whole grueling experience of having to be creative under a deadline is over, I can get back to my soapbox. I know I’m a little late to the party on this one, (that the problem with blogging current events,...

Religious Groups Oppose HPV Vaccination

Tolerance is out the Window

A while ago I posted an article on Why I'm an Atheist and a large part of the post was dedicated to promoting tolerance of others religious beliefs. I argued that while we don’t have to accept each other’s beliefs, we should tolerate them. That is after...

We can't say what killed King Tut, but hey, we found his penis!

In a Reuters Article yesterday it's explained that after performing a CT scan on the mummy of King Tut, they have found no evidence of murder. "We don't know how the king died, but we are now sure that it was not murder. Maybe he died on his own," said...

Creationist Crackpots

I was clued into to this site from what I consider one of the coolest blogs out there, Pandagon.net in a posting on what he calls Christian Right Wingnutery . And after reviewing the site, and the evidence presented, I'm inclined to agree, these guys...

Egg Cells Carried in the Testes

Here's a scary bit of science. http://www.nature.com/news/2005/050228/full//050228-4.html Women around the world may yet have their revenge. It may someday be possible for males to nurture growing fetus' in their testes. Actually that's just a giant leap...
