“Flies that get stuck on the paper pass over a blade on one of the rollers that scrapes them off and into a microbial fuel cell.” Machines eating organic material. Somehow this seems even worse than the alternative… saw it at Cosmic Log (MSNBC)

A thought on cults
A show on NatGeo TV about cults caught my attention today. I find it somewhat amazing, but mostly disgusting that some people are so willing to give up their minds, their will, and their lives to follow a charismatic* asshole with a messiah complex. It’s even more unbelievable in this modern day of free flowing [...]
Sarkozy on multiculturalism
This is a great quote. Why can’t we find U.S. Politicians who will speak so clearly about the problems of mass, uncontrolled immigration? “We have been too concerned about the identity of the person who was arriving and not enough about the identity of the country that was receiving him,” Sarkozy said in the TFI [...]
Thank you, Angelina

Of course, it wasn’t, but that hasn’t stopped [...]
Tragedy in Arizona

Congratulations, Speaker Boehner
I didn’t get to watch it live, thankfully Jimmy was there with the commentary!
Halfway there
I guess turnout was indeed greater than expected… my damned poll site ran out of stickers before I got there. Oh well, this one will do. Halfway to 2012. Thankfully, today’s results should stem the tide until we can correct the mistake of 2008. Now we just have to keep our collective foot on the [...]
Advanced Pumpkin Carving Technique
I had no idea cats loved pumpkins so much.
