Is it just me or is there some kind of cultural connection amongst humans between the moon and insanity? I first noticed it when I learned the phrase “esta en la luna” (in the moon) in Spanish which is a way of saying absent-minded. I then made the connection between “Luna” and “lunatic” and “loonies” [...]

Al Gore Remix
Alright, alright… so I have been neglecting my blog quite a bit. I’ve been out of town and I’ve been taking finals for my summer college classes and I haven’t changed Quote of the Week nor done Ignunt Fool of the Week.
I’m sorry*.
Anyway, I’m breaking the silence by posting a video of Al Gore challenging [...]

The Sky is Falling!
Now that PZ has successfullly desecrated his cracker piece of the body of Christ, I’ve received a message from the “Fire Paul Zachary Myers” Facebook group.

Hell, when I met Richard Dawkins the first thing to run through my head was not “he looks a lot [...]

Digg I Are On
Okay, so I just joined Digg because it seems like it would be a good way for people who aren’t normally searching for this kind of stuff to find what I write and maybe, just maybe, get interested in this strange thing I call “skepticism.” I just submitted my first article so it would be [...]

“Strange” Rock
Look everybody! It’s a strange rock!
Well, folks. I suppose we were wrong about aliens. Roswell has been contacted by extraterrestrials again. The Roswell Daily Record is reporting that they’ve found a “strange rock” that is raising questions.
A strange rock with unusual magnetic properties – deeply scored, with what appears to be moon phases, a solar [...]

For the Record
This is just a comment which I left on Friendly Atheist which I feel summarizes my personal feelings about Thrawn’s “Piss Off the Catholics Month.”
Because of the whole co-author situation, there has been some confusion in the past over who was posting what on my blog. For the record, “Piss Off the Catholics Month” was [...]

OUT Campaign!
I’ve been keeping a dirty secret from all of you… I’m an Atheist! I’m coming out as an Atheist!
Well, okay, I imagine y’all already know that so… my real reason for this sloppyish pasting together of pictures to illustrate everything that I’m saying in the narrative is because there’s the possibility [...]
