found today’s tall tale by accident — it’s a flash-animated version of some of the Paul Bunyan stories, here.
Here’s something exceptionally cool: Gene Repair Pill. Scientists have developed a pill that apparently corrects some kinds of faulty DNA code, like the kinds of code that cause Cystic Fibrosis and Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. These kinds [...]
ell, unfortunately I received an e-mail this morning from the bank I had applied at, turning me down for the job. On the upside, I have an interview at an office supply place in town on Friday.
Some days, I think that I am never going to escape the Restaurant. I’ve been looking into college [...]
Warning: This got long. Disclaimer: I have a high school science education. I probably got something wrong. Or at least, not all the way right.
e can file this one under “Kind of Sad, Really.” The “Good Reporters”, and their little Evolution Isn’t Even Logical essay was just sort of depressing. I’m sitting here today, staring [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, drumroll please! There are 7 working days left until GenCon! It (and my vacation along with it) cannot get here fast enough.

So, help me out here, folks. Exactly what kind of person, in what kind of mindset, do you have to be, to be happy that the world is soon to end? No, seriously.
