U.K. Designer “Grows” an Entire Wardrobe From Bacteria

OH MY GOD THIS IS AWESOME. I wonder how well-tailored you can make something.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Can we expect news from Clovis and his bacterial minions?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I liked the simple "I like pie!" sign. A bunch of my friends were up at Lee Harvey's [link] making signs for the protest.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Did I read somewhere that Phelps was going to protest at Comic-Con? Because the potential for hilarious and/or freaky counter-protests is sky-high there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do love a good funny counter-protest.

Speaking of tv watching, I tried to watch Murder on the Orient Express with David Suchet last night

Argh! I forgot to tape that. Luckily, it should be available online to stream.

My meeting went fine, I got on an earlier train, and we just passed the stop that I sat at for four hours on Saturday, so I am feeling pretty good about my day.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yep:

San Diego Convention Center 111 W Harbor Dr. WBC to picket Comic Con 2010 at the San Diego Convention Center. Are you kidding?! If these people would spend even some of the energy that they spend on these comic books, reading the Bible, well no high hopes here. They have turned comic book characters into idols, and worship them they do! Isaiah 2:8 Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made: 9 And the mean man boweth down, and the great man humbleth himself: therefore forgive them not. It is time to put away the silly vanities and turn to God like you mean it. The destruction of this nation is imminent - so start calling on Batman and Superman now, see if they can pull you from the mess that you have created with all your silly idolatry.

P-C, are you going to SDCC this year?

They have turned comic book characters into idols, and worship them they do!

I am totally reading this as "Turned comic book characters into idols they have, and worship them they do!" and in Yoda's voice.

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

I want to go to Comic Con! Except, of course, that I'm allergic and would find it a nightmare. But still, I'm jealous of y'all.

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

Which is appropriate, as Yoda a Godless heathen is.
