I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well. I was just outside having a smoke, and a lady sat down next to me and handed me a pamphlet titled, " So Who Is This Jesus, Anyway?"

Have you checked to see if there's a sign taped to your back? This happens far too often to you.

But, as in most infectious disorders, genetic variation determines how susceptible you are to infection. TB ran right through some families and left others untouched.

Plus, TB's communicable, and the family members were right there, communicating, as it were. The poorer you were, the more likely you were to share a bed with the sick person, too.

"So Who Is This Jesus, Anyway?"

Who. Is. this unfortunate?
Someone Christ, King of the Jews

You know, I hadn't yet found today's earworm, so thanks.

I feel like a total moron, but I can't figure out how to use calculus to compare the area of a parabola segment and its inscribed triangle without doing waaaay more multiplication than seems appropriate. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm seeing a hot Conversion Game, and Shrift as an upper level. If you find one you like, maybe you could offer to pray with him. He'll get 50 points and his initials in the Top 10 hall of fame.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

"Entertainment Tonight" has a statement from Nick Lachey's people saying that it is not true he and Jessice are breaking up.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This has got to be one of the most beautiful sentences in the English language:

Scientists have taught dolphins to combine both rhythm and vocalisations to produce music, resulting in an extremely high-pitched, short version of the Batman theme song.

By the end of the studies, the scientists could show an object, such as the Batman doll, which represented a certain rhythm-vocalisation combo to the dolphin, and it would create the correct sounds both vocally and using the switch.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It's just mean of them not to include an mp3 with that article. [ha! xpost]

What is even happening?

When I politely indicated my disinterest and said that I was just trying to escape the stress of my office for a few minutes, she asked if I wanted to pray with her.

I think I prefer getting harangued by Jehovah.

How did you refrain from saying, "Jehovah comes by here regularly. Why would I go through you?"
