…the newest Scienceblog, A Good Poop. If you've like weird medical science and all the strange things that go into and out of people, it's the blog for you.
Cue the obvious jokes in the comments…

Comments
There are no obvious jokes to be made in the comments.
I suspect, however, that commenter #2 will prove otherwise.
Posted by: Cyde Weys | January 4, 2008 11:57 AM
I bet the comments will be excrementionally good.
Posted by: robd | January 4, 2008 12:00 PM
Comment #2 did, indeed, prove otherwise :-/
Posted by: Cyde Weys | January 4, 2008 12:02 PM
I dunno, that blog looks pretty shitty.

Re: #4
What? Are you kidding me? That blog is The Sh*t!
Posted by: Raynfala | January 4, 2008 12:30 PM
*Fart*
Does that count as an appropriate joke?
Posted by: Jamie | January 4, 2008 12:37 PM
By the pricking of my thumbs, something stinky this way comes!

I heard the moderator is studying at Brown.

I suppose this now kills my dream of there one day being a ScienceBlog devoted to the glorious wonders of corn and peanuts.
bastids!
Posted by: Dan | January 4, 2008 12:55 PM
Think about it.
Brightly colored M&Ms, broccoli, yellow squash, red, ripe tomatoes, green peppers, whole wheat bread. A veritable riot of color on the plate. Yum.
Why is it so brown afterwards? Good biological reasons, I'm sure, but brown?
Hey, wait! The nutrition MUST be from the color! Wow! What a discovery!

A new blog! Oh boy!
Long may you run...

I hope its not too corny or nutty.......

After getting three children past the diaper stage, nothing you can say will shock me.
On that same vein, my daughter managed to surprise me the other day with a phthalo-green "surprise." Turned out she'd eaten a blue candy-cane the day before.
Sorry. It's late. Must be the wine.

Since this is a thread about other blogs, maybe it's a good place to put this terrible news.

Any of you who've read Obsidian Wings in the past probably knew of Andy Olmstead. If so, sorry to ruin your day, but this is a must read.

Is there a way to subscribe to it by email? I clicked on the email subscription link and it took me to the subscription page but it wasn't listed. Anyone know of another way to subscribe? This new blog is gonna drop a load for us.

I agree with commentor #15.
Posted by: Smeber | January 4, 2008 3:36 PM
Thanks, Smeber.
Add to that: my husband is a pathologist. Those med-school dinner conversations really primed me for the reality that is toddler-hood.

As a blogger named Brownian whose blog has the initials BM, I am wondering if I can sue.

I suspect that "Chris" is really Mr. Hanky.

I expect AGP to eliminate the competition.
Posted by: Kseniya | January 4, 2008 4:21 PM
Is this thread meant to supplant the Friday Cephalopod? 'Cause if so, I'm really bummed out and feeling crappy about it. Quite down in the dumps, really.
I think I'll go lie down in the fecal position now.
Posted by: Brownian, OM | January 4, 2008 4:54 PM
The word "poop" is onomatopoeia. hee hee...
Posted by: RamblinDude | January 4, 2008 5:27 PM
I agree with commentor #18.
Posted by: Mike | January 4, 2008 5:30 PM
I heard that the moderator is a real star of a pupil at Brown. In fact, dare I say, he or she may be showcased as a Brown Star.

морднилап - пуп - палиндром
Posted by: Ксения | January 4, 2008 5:36 PM
Ксения, that's just crazy talk.
Posted by: Brownian, OM | January 4, 2008 5:37 PM
Yup, either way you look at it, it's crazy!
Posted by: Kseniya | January 4, 2008 5:41 PM
Ксения, please to translate the palindrome?
If not, I'll ask Kseniya to do it.
Posted by: Brownian, OM | January 4, 2008 5:43 PM
1. Ксения is Kseniya
2. палиндром is palindrom
but perhaps you knew that really. :-/

I am afraid to disappoint you, but... it's nothing clever.

However, the nonsense word suggests a mangled phrase:
which I believe would translate roughly to "a snout nor a paw".
I'll go back on my meds tomorrow, I promise!

I bet they wipe up at next year's Webby awards.
Posted by: idahogie | January 4, 2008 7:12 PM
be careful, everyonce and a while the site will emit "the brown noise"
Posted by: qedpro | January 4, 2008 7:48 PM
Why is it so brown afterwards?
Never mixed paint, eh?
Posted by: truth machine | January 4, 2008 8:09 PM
I will pull up a stool and have a read.

His post on the dangers of Christmas trees reminds me of the apparently defunct Angry Toxicologist science blogger.

I'd like to mention another site that seems promising.

Here is also a site by a 17-year-old which has a lot of video documentaries on it.
