GrrlScientist is an evolutionary biologist, ornithologist, aviculturist, birder and freelance science and nature writer. A native of the Pacific Northwest, she relocated from Seattle to NYC with her parrots after earning a BS in Microbiology (emphasis in Virology) and PhD in Zoology (Ornithology) from the University of Washington. In NYC, she was the Chapman Postdoctoral Fellow at the American Museum of Natural History for two years, pursuing part of her "dream" research project by reconstructing a molecular phylogeny of the parrots of the South Pacific islands. GrrlScientist and her five parrots are currently relocating to Germany, where she will continue writing her blog while also writing a book and learning German. (Meanwhile, her parrots will continue to nibble on her extensive personal library.)

According to information leaked this week from the White House, planning is underway to design the George W. Bush Presidential Library, despite the fact that Bush has reportedly never read a book in his entire life. This library will include the following:

  • The Hurricane Katrina Room, which is still under construction.

  • The Alberto Gonzales Room, where you won't be able to remember anything.

  • The Texas Air National Guard Room, where you don't even have to show up.

  • The Walter Reed Hospital Room, where they don't let you in.

  • The Guantanamo Bay Room, where they don't let you out.

  • The National Debt Room, which is huge and has no ceiling.

  • The Tax Cut Room, with entry restricted only to the wealthy.

  • The Airport Men's Room, where you can meet some of your favorite Republican Senators.

  • The Economy Room, which is in the toilet.

  • The Iraq War Room, after you complete your first tour, they make you to go back for a second, third, fourth, and sometimes fifth tour.

  • The Dick Cheney Room, in the famous undisclosed location, complete with shotgun gallery.

  • The Environmental Conservation Room, still empty, but very warm.

  • The Supreme Court Gift Shop, where you can buy an election.

  • The Decider Room, complete with dart board, magic 8-ball, Ouija board, dice, coins, and straws.

  • Additionally, the museum will have an electron microscope to help you locate the President's accomplishments.

Proposed admission: Republicans - free; Democrats - $1000 or 3 Euros.
