On the weekend, fellow ScienceBloggers seem prone to mass hysteria, taking various silly Internet tests. Even I, Orac, have succumbed to such temptations. I wasn't going to succumb to this one, as Grrlscientist, PZ, Afarensis, Chris, and Bora have, but then I saw the result.
Using the same Advertising Slogan Generator, I think I have the best advertising slogan of them all:
It Needn't Be Hell With Orac.
Indeed.
I think I'll go with that one.

I need a battalion of these. Only question: do I hold them in reserve for my bid for world conquest, or do I succumb to temptation and use it in the classroom to intimidate the students?
I succumbed to the tempting link Corrente waved around, and clicked through to see Connie Chung's farewell to some cable show I never heard of before.
I have posted pictures of my cats before, but I believe never on Fridays. I'll have to succumb to fashion today though, because I cannot wait any longer to show you the pics of the newest member of the family. Introducing (under the fold) - Orange Julius:
Since I'm grading genetics exams this evening, a class that involves a tiny amount of math, I can understand where this response to a math problem comes fro
Love it. But your link to afarensis also goes to PZ's page.
Not any more. I fixed it.
I think it's a conspiracy

Off topic, but have you seen the latest Dr. Who yet? (Part 1 of the two-part series ender.) Day-um, but I am looking forward to Saturday's episode. I shall be sat in front of the telly at 7 o'clock, curtains drawn, beer to hand. RTD wasn't kidding when he told us that they had something spectacular lined up to end the series.
I think it's time to start a campaign to get Russell T. Davies a knighthood for services to Dr Who...
Thanks to BitTorrent, I watched it yesterday.
After two lame episodes, this one was a stunner, a great story with a surprise ending that I'm kicking myself for not having figured out before it was revealed in the very last scene. Even if you leave aside the surprise ending, the story was fantastic, with the images of thousands of Cybermen materializing all over the world in London, Paris, India, etc., were stunning.
This two-parter has the potential to be the best Doctor Who story yet since the series was resurrected last year.
Yes, I don't know how I failed to see it coming, either. Oh, boy, 10 million cybermen *plus* all those... ah, maybe I shouldn't give it away :-)
I wonder if the next series will resurrect the Ice Warriors - that would complete the big baddy trifecta of my youth.
So take nothing.

I don't know about "best"... putting in "Pooflinger" was sort of boring, so I put it "shyte" instead.

I think I need to make a change to my blog now...

I like to think of myself as friendly (I'm more so online than IRL, though), but to fly me?
