Friday Night Miscellany
Whew - I'm exhausted! We had snow Tuesday night and last night - a total of 10 inches on top of what fell Saturday. More is due tomorrow night. I'm already sick of shoveling!
Some strange stuff to entertain you:
First - a Chinese man with green sweat, and the doctors can't figure out what's wrong with him. Ahem! He's obviously been eating too much Soylent Green, darlings!
Pascal: "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction." Twain: "Man is kind enough when he is not excited by religion." Tom Robbins: "A sense of humor, properly developed, is superior to any religion so far devised." Frank commentary on religious fanatics (Christian and non-Christian) in "Let Us Kill All Teddy Bears" by Mark Morford at SFGate.com.
How to Good-Bye Depression: If You Constrict Anus 100 Times Everyday. Malarkey? or Effective Way?, a new book by Hiroyuki Nishigaki. Darlings, I have absolutely no comment on this. Reviews at Amazon.com. (Okay, I do have a question: How do you "dent" your navel?)
Blast from the Past: The Lake Worth Monster.
Chimps outperform university students in memory tests. This is news?
