Hey, can we get a pairing of Celine Dion with Larry Moran?

Justifying the claim that something does not exist is not quite the same as proving or having arguments that it doesn't, but it is what we are talking about. That is, we need not have a proof that God does not exist in order to justify atheism. Atheism is obligatory in the absence of any evidence for God's existence.

Hey! I also have a high-school diploma!

The assigned tasks were rather unequal. Isolate a gene vs. solve the folding problem?

I confess I cringed a lot. This may not be a parody. It may be a prediction.

Well, given his dissertation they probably thought it fair to give him something harder.

Damn Billy Bubba, that science is hard!
This show might actually serve a great social purpose if it could show just how hard science is compared to other activities. Almost all of us can take dance classes and get at least poorly proficient. But we can't all be research biochemists, not even bad ones.

Actually doing this (admittedly with serious intent and appropriate activities) would be interesting.
Of course, isn't that what PBS does already?

How long have you hated Larry?

Pairing Celine Dion would be attractive if you want to have an all-Canada Team, but I am afraid of what they would produce were he to shake her all night long.

LOL!
BTW, the Chinese guy really says "I like men".

Moran might have more affinities with Claire Pelletier. I didn't find anything by her on Youtube or Daily Motion, but here is just a sound file.

Check out the old Ealing comedy The Man In The White Suit some time. Joan Greenwood talking polymer chemistry in one of the sexiest voices known to mankind.

Does anyone know if Michael Strahan really did his college thesis on molecular signaling?
And if so, does anyone know if he's single?

I am reminded of Denise Richards in the James Bond film The World Is Not Enough, pretending to be, in her words, "an atomic scientist" (Presumably what real scientists would call a nuclear physicist>. I can't figure out why she didn't win an Oscar for that role.

God that film (the Bond one, not the biochemistry one) pissed me off. It really put the lie to the claim that post-Goldeneye Bond girls were substantial, even feminist roles. Richards's entire job in that film consists of three things:
1) Be the butt of a really crappy sexual pun.
2) Wear a wet shirt.
3) Press a button when Bond tells her to.

Funny, I didn't think Donny Osmond believed in Biochemistry.
Posted by: Jud | April 15, 2007 10:16 PM
Oh, Strahan is definitely single, after an extremely public, messy and expensive divorce.
Fortunately, all I care about is what he does on a football field.

Denise Richards had lines in that movie? I didn't realize that. But there were a couple of things distracting me when she was on screen.
Posted by: andyo | April 16, 2007 9:12 AM
Donny Osmond is funny.
