I prefer the dog Gagas to the human Gaga.

Is her(?) music any good, or is just a media/publicity phenomenon?

Crummy game cartridges from old systems are worth 41k, yet my silver waterlily salt dish-thing is worth only $100!?

The "Non-Native Plant Nazis" must be seething.

Interesting event....how many people came, and how many were expected to come?

On another note, the ecological damage caused by so many runners to this fragile ecosystem will take centuries to repair.

Michael Jackson's ghost is tittering with pleasure.

There really are amazing animals there. Unfortunately, even with protection, the populations are unhealthy, and in 50 years the Galapagos will be populated by humans, rats, and flies alone.

Well, Kelsey, you may be right. If Braithwaite had entered the classroom on a cold winters day he would both appreciate the warmth and yet feel disgust and horror at what was producing it.

For some reason I am reminded of "To Sir With Love" when Braithwaite (?) found the class using sanitary napkins as fuel for the classroom heater.

Does myostatin serve any purpose? Myostatin seems to do nothing more than stunt.

The Green Man sucks like a bucket of ticks. I should burn to death because some illiterate foreigners cannot be troubled to learn our ways? I mean, if a building catches on fire, I would first look for the red exit sign. Not seeing one I would remember that PC forced us to switch to some stoopid green man. I would then see the toilet sign and run into the bathroom by mistake, there to die in the flames.

Whale meat is actually quite delicious, which explains why the Japanese and the Norwegians annually harvest thousands for research purposes.

Hmmmm....is it fat "hate" or fat "disgust"? People are born a certain race, or gay, or tall or short, but fatness is a choice. A choice that in today's society is seen as repulsive, disgraceful, and a whole host of other pejoratives.

I know of several attractive college women who ended up with a fat mate, perhaps because the man was a lawyer or a doctor. But how many men marry the obese unless they are desperate? Are women less shallow than men? Or do men have a different evolutionary psychology that is largely visual, but also influenced by society's norms of the moment?

My cousin did not know that she was pregnant. She was obese and re-....ummm...mentally challenged, and just did not know. She later died in her thirties of ovarian cancer and never questioned the pain and bleeding.

Wheeee!!! What fun!!! Let's name our baby something really weird!!! And while we're at it, let's tattoo the baby's face green and purple!!

Giving babies weird names is a form of child abuse. Babies are not toys, though in our society of immature adults I guess some parents may be excused for thinking otherwise.

If weird names are so wonderful, why not change your own? It is fun!!!

"Did the Vikings realize the New World wasn't Asia?"

Excellent question! If I remember correctly, they did not think of the New World as Asia, just more land that they happened across.
