The latest epic viral fail, designed for maximum wow factor but that hardly qualifies as an a-ha moment, is the Lake Superior University list of words to be banned in 2011. I heard the back story from my BFF, well, it's not very interesting.
Some would say that Lake Superior U should man up and admit that language is flexible, and that it is pointless to refudiate neologisms such as "Mamma Grizzlies" if the American People want to live life to the fullest, linguistically, as it were. I'm just sayin'

I arrived in North Carolina on Thursday night at around 6 pm. The next morning, I was barely coherent, after an amazing keynote speech, open mic night, and far too late an evening involving ocean bloggers and alcohol. I managed to cup some coffee, then make my way to my first blogging related event…
Blogs and schools often don't mix. Many blogs are free ranging entities untethered to an institutional or editorial framework. In public discussions of Scienceblogs.com, the fact that every blogger is editorially independent of each other and of the hosting organization, Seed Media Group, is…
During my winter blogging break, I thought I'd repost of few of my "greatest hits" from my old blog, just so you all wouldn't miss me so much. This one is from September 24, 2007. This post follows up on my initial 2007 post which I reposted yesterday.
It's worth noting that the blog has evolved…

You know you've arrived when Mabus vomits on your blog.
Arrived? But arrived at what?
I've been getting his missives since I started blogging on Scienceblogs. Normally they are spam-trapped and deleted, but I let select ones through for the purpose of demonstrating the Christian ideal of threatening to murdify atheists. Every time this happens, Mabus contributes to the ever-building evidence that atheists are often the victims of threats of violence from Christians. Other Christians take note: If you don't want to be linked to this sort of behavior, please don't ask me to not make the link ... the link is real ... deal with the problem among your own ranks (and yes, Dave Mabus is one of yours).
They need to add terroristto the list. When it is applied to Julian assange for wikileaks and the EPA for calling attention to climate change, the word has no
meaning.
