Teeny tiny


Some strange place? A computer-generated photo from someone's imagination? No, it is a photo of crystallized vitamin A via microscopy. Check out this one:

Yes, watch out Picasso, you are being rivaled by a picture of phenyl threonine (who isn't?). Go check out tons of groovey works of microscopy here. For a convenient gallery version of this page, go here.

Enough of Dick Cheney's marksmanship...WE HAVE DEV2.0


Yes, frogs fall from the sky, cannibals ravage bloated corpses on the street, the end of the world has arrived. Well... almost. Instead we have DEV2.0. I guess the Devo dudes needed some cash to send their kids to college. Nonetheless, you must hear it to believe it...

DUCK!


I know you know the story, but I wanted to be the first person to refer to our Vice President (and the brother of Satan) as Deadeye Dick (although I doubt I am). At least the owner of the ranch had this reassuring quote about the sport of quail hunting:
"I would shoot with Dick Cheney everywhere, anywhere, and not think twice about it," she said. But she said, "The nature of quail shooting ensures that this will happen. It goes with the turf."

Because he values the constitution...


This quote by Bush was made on April 20, 2004, after the illegal wiretaps that have been in the news lately. Now, if Clinton was caught in this lie, this would be played over and over by the "liberal" media. I guess lying in order to keep your wife from finding out you got an extracurricular BJ is much more important than lying about illegally usurping congress...
Secondly, there are such things as roving wiretaps. Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires — a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we’re talking about chasing down terrorists, we’re talking about getting a court order before we do so. It’s important for our fellow citizens to understand, when you think Patriot Act, constitutional guarantees are in place when it comes to doing what is necessary to protect our homeland, because we value the Constitution.

For full effect, I suggest you play the clip. In the clip, you get the condescending smirkiness in full...
