Maddow = Bungle

At the risk of admitting that I was watching the Rachel Maddow show last night (I like to watch the news before bed, and Larry King interviewing Levi Johnston about sticking it in a Palin daughter is just not my cup of tea), the first five minutes contained this comment about wikipedia disambiguation pages:

Maddow: For example if you search wikipedia for "Vanity Fair," perhaps you are looking for the magazine, or the British novel, or the 2004 film, or the 1932 film, or the jazz/rock song from group Mr. Bungle. But you probably weren't looking for that because it's not their best work.

Now most likely this was a clever line, but I like to think Maddow likes to put on "Love is a Fist" as she bathes in androgyny while Keith Olbermann lies in bed next to her telling her about the glory days when he had a mustache and ruled the world with Dan Patrick.

Your Science Minute

Hey everyone !

It’s time for your science minute!

Otter-like fossil reveals early seal evolution.

SAY WHAAAAAAT!

Nick and Jim in Animal Science say they've found a "missing link" in the early evolution of seals and walruses — the skeleton of a web-footed, otter-like creature that was evolving away from a life on land.

To bad it was such a crappy design and had to become extinct.

It was probably food for the SUPER SHARK!(seen in pic being killed by many heroic Asians) Later they found out it was only SON of SUPER SHARK! And all got eaten.)

In Space News

A Big “BLOB” was discovered in early universe!

A strange giant space "blob" spotted when the universe was relatively young has got astronomers puzzled. Using space and ground telescopes, us scientists looked back to when the universe was only 800 million years old and found something that was out of proportion and out of time.

The photo is a little fuzzy…sorry my zoom is a little broken.

The rumor here at the lab is that they named the blob “HIMIKO” after Janis Himiko. She works in the Mech Nuclear Weapons Division here in the Lab and can be quite a cunt at times… plus she’s fat.

Apple pulls plug on "Baby Shaker" iPhone program!

WTF! How else am I suppose to practice shaking my baby? Seriously… I’m a Scientist, I work like 16 to 20 hours a day and have no time to practice when I’m at home and I want every shake to count, no weak shakes. What are they going to take away next the zit popper app. Shit.

 

That’s been your science minute.

When there is another break through I'll be sure to let you know.

This is just awesome

This is a good workout. I feel tired just watching.

So I've taken it upon myself (for a cut obvi) to promote my girl's custom cake making business. Check these little tasters out!

Daily Apple

Twitter is great for telling people what you are doing. Or you could just tell them...if they even really care. I can't wait til animals can use twitter because when I am not at home I wonder what the cat and the fish are doing. Is the cat licking his ass? Is he chasing the cockroaches? Is he trying to pet the fish again? I can't wait until I can know all these things, but there's not an app for that.

Race To The Bottom Of The Culture Ladder

I've got an idea!!... Let's have a race to the bottom of the culture ladder... I'm giving myself a ten-second head start... (By the way, I quit the internet. There is officially nothing left to see.)

Dave Uhrich

So I went to see a show recently, and was kind of tired so I showed up a little late hoping to miss whatever schlock was opening. However, I failed to realize that they were giving a 90-minute set to the opener and caught about 75 minutes of it. That said, when I walked in, almost a quarter of the crowd's faces were already melted off.

With original songs with names like "Occam's Razor" and "Absolution" and a bass player who would have jabbed himself in the neck if he had worn it any higher, the Dave Uhrich Band was 5% drum solo, 5% slap bass off, 45% regular guitar solo, and 45% finger tapping guitar solo. 0% vocals, because there was too much solo to waste time with vocals.

He covered Bohemian Rhapsody...all of it...on guitar...by himself.
Then he played a medley of just the solos from Stairway to Heaven, We Will Rock You and Hotel California, followed by all of Eruption and the entire Star Spangled Banner.
And then a full cover of Tom Sawyer.

I found out later the guy is Guitar World's 31st ranked living guitarist. I have to admit, when I walked in I was kind of laughing because this guy appeared to be just jacking off really f'ing hard all over his guitar, but in the end it was so over the top you couldn't help but appreciate it.

That and everyone's face was melted.
