Oh Jesus. I think my brain just exploded in disgust.

I am, like most of the world's population. Get over it.

Her first husband was clearly right - she had a dream. There is no reason to speculate about anything else...I mean, it happened while she was asleep and her body stayed put. There is no indication of anomalous knowledge....helloooooo, reality calling?. The woman is by all appearances a fruit...

With all the dead alien babies people keep claiming to find, the answer to the entire mystery is obvious: Earth is an Alien Abortion Clinic (AAC).

(After all, anything to do with our Kate is inherently paranormal. and cool:)) "Cloudbusting" is for those who didn't know about the arrest of Wilhelm Reich as seen through the eyes of his son Peter. My apologies if I've posted that link before.

Hmmm...Could we have Sean David Morton vs. the Knell-word? (Although I'd like the rules for that one to be modified slightly to "Two dorks enter, no dorks leave").

Cool episode. I have to disagree with Don Ecker though about Strom Thurmond's foreword: before there was any controversy at all over it I read it and thought "He has no idea that this isn't just a collection of military anecdotes". It was entirely along the lines of "He's had a long and...

When I was working in Ireland a few years ago I invented a new religion called Jackism, based on the proposition that if someone led a blameless life they would eventually be reincarnated as a kitten named Jack. This resulted from an incident down the pub one night when a particularly lovely...

A global currency would actually have a lot to recommend it. The situation at the moment is absurd, where citizens of Country B can find their money worthless because currency traders in Country G (OK, Japan, for example) react to events like hysterical adolescent girls.

That was a gratuitously offensive comment. Count yourself lucky not to have been a child in Hitler's Germany.

Ahhh, so Angry "Human" was a bit of irony then?

As someone who has less of a personality than a committee, I can sort of understand how that might happen. I have to admit though that I felt myself wondering if she had perhaps in her crop circle work placed a higher value on being seen to practice critical thinking than on actually doing it...

We Like The Moon: http://www.rathergood.com/moon_song (Spong Monkeys) For more from the same source: The Soluble Song: http://www.rathergood.com/soluble (my personal favourite) Viking Kittens (with Led Zep): http://users.wolfcrews.com/toys/vikings/ Oldies but goodies. I apologise for...

Aaarrgh. I just read the speech, and I do so very much wish I hadn't. Bush's sentences were usually at least nominally about something...her sole means of communication seems to be to randomly cobble together infantile catchphrases. While the depths of her idiocy have been good for laughs, for...

The fact that the concept of the Trinity doesn't make sense is actually a point in its favour: usually we have invented gods who were much like ourselves, but if a divine entity truly exists, an intelligent reality preceding and not contained by the universe, it would be highly implausible for...

Actually, I think there's every chance that on an individual level they could be functionally stupid - they may have had machines to do the hard work and thinking for them for thousands of years now... they might not even remember how their own technology works (and the evolutionary incentive...

OK, not so much broken as bent a bit, but still very cool. I wonder if that could be used to communicate with spacecraft? If so it would be a big step forward for both unmanned and manned Mars expeditions.

I think Nancy's living with some serious cognitive dissonance...what's left of her critical faculties are desperately trying to get her attention and she's metaphorically sticking her fingers in her ears and going "I CAN'T HEAR YOU...LA LA LA". Makes people grumpy, that does.

If I were invisible I'd be blind (think about it), and that would suck. As for above the law...I prefer to think of myself as "alternatively law-abiding".

I'll second that: As a professional software developer with a background in languages I wince when I see the faith people put in machine translation. Every time a new tool is released with much hype about how spookily accurate it is I check it out thinking "maybe this time", and every time it...
