Nate is at a science! conference so I went home to visit my parents and, on my way west on I-72, came across new Guns Save Life signage. I didn't see the first of the signs, but can paraphrase the others: "...in Darfur Sudan...all started with...a gun ban...GunsSaveLife.com." Ha. Gotta hand it to the redneck milita-types: those guys can rhyme!
Other things of note: a new Nova, the title of which is "Intelligent Design on Trial." Now, I can only assume that Nova will shred the intelligent design theory to pieces, and I will be really disappointed if they don't. Then again, often I hope for programs to cut down various idiots and am disappointed at the results. I was home early from work a few Fridays ago and, flipping through the channels, and noticed that Oprah was doing a show on polygamists. Yippee (even though I can't stand Oprah, I relented for this)! But no, she was soft on 'em (so was Lisa Ling, who did some of the interviews, and whom I usually like). Lisa and Oprah even went so far as to use what they called the "politically correct" term for polygamy--"plural marriages." What the hell?! Since when has polygamy been politically correct?! Damn mormon fundamentalist.
Anyhow. One can only hope Nova does some proper intelligent design-bashing. I may have to stop giving money to PBS if they don't.
And now, your "Random picture of one of our cats" image 'o the day:

It really is unfortunate that it even made it into the courtroom, but while on trial I hope it takes a thorough butt whooping. I was reading yesterday a webpage that debunks much of the ID "science". If you are intersted here is a link.

I love those "guns save life" signs. Have you checked out their web site? How about this one? JEWS FOR THE PRESERVATION
OF FIREARMS OWNERSHIP (www.jpfo.org). Check out their logo!
I once saw the "Guns Save Life" minivan parked at some house out in....st. joseph or some place like that. LOVE that jpfo logo - that's totally awesome. Perhaps I'll convert just so I can join.
I'll have to check out "millerandlevine" too!
