Michele Bachmann. I can't say enough.

If Michele Bachmann is elected President, Americans will learn more.

Tens of millions, in fact, will learn more than the first two words of "O Canada."

Now that's a hug

In San Francisco, The California Academy of Sciences had a cold-blooded exhibition this summer on snakes and lizards.  Their TV ad featured a Curator wrapped by a 16-foot albino python, named "Lemondrop."  "Now that's a hug," the fellow said.

Here's something different.

I *like* snakes, especially when pronounced the Australian way, "Snaykes" (rhymes with "tykes').  What's your tyke on that, Might?

What the article doesn't mention is that the $80 includes a tasty snake sandwich, err, *steak* sandwich.

Snake, like revenge, is a dish best served cold.  - Klingon Proverb

I was reminded today of a philosophical quote from the 1968 Star Trek episode, "Spock's Brain." 

"Brain and brain.  What is Brain?"

My proposal for an official Mensa song: "Oh the wayward brain is a restless brain, a restless brain that yearns to ponder."  - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSPLSo3U46Q

It's like when I forgot my credentials and was challenged by security at the Portland Mensa convention this year.  "Badges? We don' got no badges.  We don' got to show you no thinking badges."  -"Treasure of the Sierra Madre"

I think it's time to go feed my brain some blood sugar.

Let's get Physics-cal

This is REALLY obscure, except to particle physicists. Go find one and watch the reaction :)

Scientists at CERN in Switzerland claim to have accelerated a neutrino to a speed faster than the speed of light.

The Higgs Bozo particle also goes faster than the speed of light, except it does it wearing clown shoes.

Comedian karma

I went to Molly's Bash at a club called Karma Fusion Lounge in Dublin, California, where an idea popped into my mind -- the Boy George 1983 classic song, "Karma Chameleon," but substituting "comedian" for "chameleon." I'll write out how it would go...

"Karma Karma Karma Karma Karma Comedian."

The young lady expresses herself

When the 17-year old girl in a beginning Yoga class kept having unexpected results doing apanasana, her classmates dubbed her "Teen La Queefah."

Yes, it *is* a bit obscure.

My girlfriend

My girlfriend has a tramp stamp. It reads, "Do not over inflate."

Apparently, I need to explain that she's an *inflatable* girlfriend.

A blow to argumentation

Are those making specious arguments guilty of fallatio?

I guess I should explain. There's a similar word, "fellatio," with an "e." "Fallatio," with an "a" is based on "fallacy" and "fallacious arguments." Is that any clearer now?
