We must be some kind of asshole.

We missed our 3 year Dr. Yeti anniversary yesterday.

What should our punishment be?

Another theory more cogent than Intelligent Design

Today, while I was doing some mansperiments in lab, I started thinking about last night's spanking of the Steelers by the Patriots.

It seems pretty clear to me that Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked Joe Montana's wang into a complete set of female genitalia, impregnated him, and the resulting baby was Tom Brady. I've got it on good authority that the placenta ended up being Peyton Manning too.

Despite his skills, looks, and ability to seduce/impregnate beautiful women, Brady is still a huge disappointment to daddy Chuck.

Uh YEAH!!!

My eBay rating has finally reached the perfect number. I'll never buy anything again.

"It's true, it's true."

I thought The Yeti might get a kick out of this:

NEW YORK (AP) — This was REALLY not kosher. A grocery store in Manhattan made a food faux pas, advertising hams as "Delicious for Chanukah."

Chanukah, an alternate spelling for Hanukkah, is the eight-day Jewish holiday that began Tuesday evening, and hams as well as pork and other products from pigs can't be eaten under Jewish dietary laws.

A woman who saw the mistake over the weekend at the Balducci's store on 14th Street took pictures of the signs and posted them on her blog.

Jennifer Barton, director of marketing, told The Associated Press on Thursday that the signs were changed as soon as the error was noted.

She issued an apology on the company Web site, saying the company would be reviewing its employee training.

And for bonus points, who am I quoting in the title?

Herpes hits the Mountain.

Dr. Hurricane left me an IM today begging for more blog content. You know...she's right. I've been shirking my duties here entirely too much. I recently moved in with The Sciencette, so carrying boxes and whatnot has been the priority. At one point, The Sciencette's dad (The Engineer) and I got simultaneous hernias from carrying a table and hutch made of a substance so dense and heavy that I can only assume they were made from a neutron star.

Regardless, I also felt the need to reconnect with the millions and millions of Dr. Yeti's fans because there's been an outbreak of Mountain Herpes (click the link for the news story).Yep, those crazy kids in Connellsville are passing around the Herpes (2nd "e" silent please) like a joint at a Phish concert. When are the yetis going to come out of hiding and help the mountain folk? Someone needs to teach them proper hygiene, and everyone knows that yetis are some of the cleanest, most impeccably groomed metazoans that were ever intelligently designed.

I guess it's good that Dr. Hurricane moved away from the mountain. She's sciencing the hell out of stuff, making money hand over fist while her employers pay her school bills, and (chances are) waging a war against her own thyroid (she used nukes last time).
