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

ION,

Behold, the mind-rending horror of... the Atheist Apocalypse!!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It was the mixture that was most disturbing. So this thought is running through my brain right now.

I read somewhere that pedophile video stashes tend to have a lot of Flipper along with the rest. Ew ew ew.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

So what was all the fussing about? In a nutshell, a piglet and a hedgehog try to find out where God lives and go to the Temple Mount and try to visit a synagogue, a church and a mosque. The piglet and the hedgehog are rudely turned from each doorstep with reference to their non-affiliation with the respective religion. The rabbi, the bishop and the mufti sending the two animals away are portrayed with unpleasant features in the text as well as in the illustrations. In the end, those three representatives of the three Abrahamite religions get into a violent fight; the accompanying illustration shows the rabbi trying to suffocate the bishop with a Torah scroll while the bishop is hitting the mufti in the head with a Bible while the mufti is apparently trying to break the rabbi’s ankle. In the meantime, the intimated piglet and the hedgehog are sneaking off.

Swouncing

Skipping in order to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Laura & her DH's anniversary.

Happy day to the both of them! With lots of wishes for a wonderful year together.

[Edit: I skipped just to the right post to know that there are pictures I should look for upthread. Which I'm going to do exactly now. Thanks, Burrell!]

Does anyone have a clear understanding of the difference between annealing and tempering?

My understanding of annealing is based purely on the neural-network technique of virtual annealing, which isn't much help here.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Bonus trivia question - who knows what the next, further evolved species of humans will be called, according to David Bowie?

I didn't see anyone answer this. Was it "homo superior"?
