Oops, forgot to post from DW first!

Now that we've thoroughly kicked around Catholicism from last week, on to the next controversial topic: the environment!

Observation: We got five feet of snow in February.
Conclusion: Global warming must be a myth.

Observation: It's now 91° outside, and it's the first week of April.
Obvious Conclusion: Global freezing must also be a myth.

Axiom: The globe is neither warming nor cooling.
Conclusion: All weather is a figment of your imagination.

Do they give out Nobel Prizes for logic?

Looks like economic problems may be hitting my company as well.



They've started to buy the cheap toilet paper.

Yes, my friends, it is truly a(n) historic day; One which I wasn't sure I would see in my lifetime. Now that it's here, I have to keep pinching myself to make sure I'm not dreaming.

Google Maps' Street View has finally come to Baltimore and Washington, D.C.

I'm having way more fun than I should be searching through the ABS Steel Vessel Rules for the string "poop".

Sample results:

• "Poop Side Plating"


• "Bridges and Poops"


• "Exposed Poop Decks"


• "Access to Midship Quarter between Poop and Bridge"


• "A bridge or poop is not regarded as enclosed unless an alternate means of access is provided for the crew from any point on the exposed portion of the uppermost continuous deck to reach the machinery space or other working spaces within these superstructures when the bulkhead openings are closed."

I even found the equation to calculate the thickness of the poop.

Best unintentional double entendre by a football announcer:

"Big Ben [Roethlisberger] loves his tight ends."

Hmmmm... Manischewitz-brand macaroons (the greatest Passover snack food ever) contain both "sugar" and "invert sugar". I would think that these are two substances that, if they come into mutual contact, would destroy the Universe. It's possible they just produce tremendous amounts of goodness, which would explain the macaroons.
