Neanderthal Romances

My theory is that this could be the beginning of a whole new line of offbeat romance novels: http://www.genomeweb.com/node/940177?hq_e=el&hq_m=708634&hq_l=1&hq_v=4cb508f503. Imagine the book jacket, “Where can a modern girl of the 50th century BC find a real Caveman, Jill asked herself…” Share on Facebook

Klingon Campfire Songs

Translated from the original Klingon, of course. To the tune of: On Top of Spaghetti On top of a blood pie, All covered with rokeg, I lost my poor targball, When somebody snorted. It rolled off the table, And on to the floor, And then my poor targball, Rolled to Stovokor. It landed on Kahless, [...]

Thursday 13: Things I learned from reading Sci-Fi

McNugget’s will some day be all-natural health food, relatively speaking (Caves of Steel, Asimov). Apparently our diet will consist largely of yeast grown in vats. My cockroach problems really aren’t so bad (Starship Troopers, Heinlein). Mr. Rico has to face giant bugs carrying death rays. Don’t watch the movie, by the way, it does not [...]

Katrina Chalifoux of Rockford, Ill. won a contest sponsored by Ripley’s for the best wedding dress made of folded toilet paper. See the ladies below, posing, smiling, flush with pride! Katrina’s dress was just charmin’. I hope she keeps up this work, clearly she’s on a roll. Thank you, thank you. Tip your waitresses, I’ll [...]

A Six Year Old’s Comments on a Cemetery

While I was walking with my son we happened upon a cemetery. I explained that when people die, they are buried under the ground. He wanted to know who was buried under each of several headstones, and I read the names and dates. Then he found a few that were so old the names had [...]

Space Cockroaches

From Physorg.com: http://www.physorg.com/news130073558.html Russian space scientists announced on Thursday a new breakthrough in a long pedigree of firsts: the birth of 30 grandchildren of a “space cockroach” who spent 12 days in orbit. In the words of Kent Brockman: “I, for one, welcome Earth’s new overlords!” I’m going to put a rotten ding dong on [...]

Quantum Locked Kids

Our whole family really enjoyed the Dr. Who episode “Blink,” especially my son. He now spends his time drawing Tardises and asking questions about time travel and angels. One of the key ideas of the episode was a defense mechanism of the aliens: they are “quantum locked.” This means that if you observe them they [...]

Who Wants to be a Necromancer? Episode V

The final two contestants sat nervously in the cave, awaiting the appearance of Stee Mer in the crystal ball. Finally, in a luminous swirl of green and blue he appeared. “Hello, true deceivers,” he said. “Today’s challenge is to create a feast fit for a necromancer.” Patricia Cemetery served green eggs and ham. She commented [...]

Who Wants to be a Necromancer? Episode IV

The great necromancer contestants were hanging out in the lair, bad-mouthing each other and eating bat rinds, when Stee Mer appeared in the crystal ball to give them a new assignment: Raise two famous lovers from the dead and reunite them. Bill of the Dead raised Wilma and Fred Flintstone. Fred tried to pretend he [...]
