Woe to the fucking wicked.

Report on the day's activities:

Have been working on paper 1, on Evolution and Intelligent Design. Am stumped as to how to double the length.

Started finding articles for paper 2, on single-sex education.

Soon, I will go down to school and print out said articles and plan for class tomorrow.

Am now having Mac and Cheese, with 3 kinds of extra cheese, plus garlic.

Send motivation.

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

Add a section on Creationism. Just take whatever you wrote on Intelligent Design, copy it, and replace every occurance of 'Intelligent Design' with 'Creationism.'

Instructions on how to do cell division?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Oh, it's in there. It's really about the trajectory from Scopes to today, in the debate. I'm thinking it ties into larger issues in the culture, but that's a whole other set of references, which may be my motivation problem.

For those following the road to 911 debacle-

This Kos diary suggest downrating ABC programs on your Tivo:

I'm sure all the Tivo owners know how to use them - but in case not the article includes detailed instructions.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I made the mistake of moving furniture in my bedroom, which led to me find that the carpet has changed color, so extensive vacuuming was performed -- like down on your knees, changing the bag, really rucking up the nap of the carpet to make sure you suck out all the dirt. A lot more work than I'd planned on performing in the bedroom today, but now I know in my heart that it's clean.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I always got the impression from that "I Feel Pretty" ad that they're being forced to sing it.

I didn't get the impression that they were forced, just that some people were remarkably unimpressed by the fact of pretty.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

ita, Polgara told me the The Hump story.

a) HEE It must be your Karma or something.
b) Now I have the Fish Head song stuck in my head.

The Hump is insane, man.

The poor woman! To briefly retell:

Polgara was protecting her sensibilities by facing away from the bar where the wriggling and the dying happened, but suddenly a woman at the next table shrieked and shot her chair back.

As far as I could see, the fish head on their shared plate had slid towards her. Pretty creepy, and funny to watch her reaction.

A little bit later, though, the fish started wiggling its fins. You have to understand, this is less than half a fish, and it's been out of the water for a while--certainly long enough for the chefs to sashimi its rear end and serve it up.

The woman never scoots her chair back to the table, although she does try to eat. Her two (male) friends who'd laughed more at than with her when she first freaked started to look much more suspiciously at the food, and when the fish head started to open its mouth, they were pretty much side on with their askanceness.

I was crying with laughter, but Polgara and I were the only other ones even reacting.
