The Stars and Bars

I think Bush is going to lose the Southern vote.

He said he is not going to appoint Supreme Court justices who say slavery is legal.

Materials Scientists rule the world

I recently read a post on Rottentomatoes.com where they were discussing...who would win a battle - Optimus Prime or the T-1000?

And some people ACTUALLY voted for the T-1000.

Let's look at this objectively.

Short answer: Optimus Prime would essentially act as a Playdoh Fun Factory. And the T-1000 would be the Playdoh.

There really is not much else to discuss.


You know you're a doojbag when....

you do the following

1) You buy a Humvee
2) You put a bumper sticker on the back window
3) That bumper sticker has a sarcastic message, and has in BIG font "VOTE KERRY" and then in small font, something making fun of you if you do...so everyone really only sees VOTE KERRY.

Of course you could satisfy yer doojbaggery by doing 1, 2, OR 3.

Been a long time

But who cares? As long as I post now, it's ok.

Let's take a look at the news:

This is pretty cool. No, not coz the dinosaur reminds me of the Shen, but because of the scientist in charge of the investigation!

What else...so in potentially suck-ass times, I am uber-psyched that the Spaniards are goin all El Cid and kickin the smack out of some ETA jizz-freaks. Yeah yeah I sound pretty colloquial there, but they are scumbags and I hope they rot. I think them, like all terrorists, should be tried by these guys. That's right...feed him to the Sharkticons. No rescuing from Grimlock, thank u very much.

What else...what else.

The Dalai Lama sez China has been chucking nuclear waste into Tibet. So, the next time they try and have an uprising, they will have mutant powers. "Don't make me achieve a higher plane of consciousness...you wouldn't like me when I achieve a higher plane of consciousness." If yer dumb and dont get the ref, click here.

Biological research is where it's at these days! However, most of the stuff being researched is useless crap. I decided I am going to work at the NSF before I take public office, and the initiatives I am going to fund are the following:

1) Airborne sterilization, with no side effects. Yeah, like it's not already being worked on.

2) Sterilizing crack. (Thanks Kim)

3) A program that requires surgeons to spend at least one year in a developing nation, fixin people. Not Sudan, unless they've been bad.

4) Airborne St. John's Wort, or that stuff in pot. Can u imagine the possibilities of a dilute feeling of happiness and a desire to go eat a bowl of cereal? Again, I wouldn't do this in Sudan...I think they already have something like this already.

Some megalomaniacs have the right idea, but not the ones who are out for personal gain. I am talkin about the real comic-book villain types, like Ra's Al Ghul, who walk the fine line in a moral grey area. Ok maybe he's nuts.

Maybe I should not be blogging like this, in case I want to be a politician one day.

Alright, time to go to work. Juuuuuuuuuuust makin the bed.
