On the weekend, fellow ScienceBloggers seem prone to mass hysteria, taking various silly Internet tests. Even I, Orac, have succumbed to such temptations. I wasn't going to succumb to this one, as Grrlscientist, PZ, Afarensis, Chris, and Bora have, but then I saw the result.
Using the same Advertising Slogan Generator, I think I have the best advertising slogan of them all:
It Needn't Be Hell With Orac.
Indeed.
I think I'll go with that one.

Note: If you're not familiar with the Hitler Zombie, here are two posts to introduce you to the creature, with the most recent installment of his terror here, in which Orac narrowly escaped the creature.
And, now, the adventures (if you can call them that) continue....
PRELUDE: SEVERAL MONTHS AGO…
Things are crazy now for me, both at home and at work. I mean really, really crazy. So crazy that even I, one of the most verbose bloggers out there, am forced to take two or three days off from my little addiction--I mean habit. Consequently, having foreseen that this time would come around these…
Believe it or not, sometimes even Orac has a life. I know, I know, between the ridiculously logorrheic blogging here and other online activities, coupled with even more ridiculous long hours working at his day job, it's hard to conceive. However, my wife and I had a whole passel of relatives over,…

Love it. But your link to afarensis also goes to PZ's page.
Not any more. I fixed it.
I think it's a conspiracy

Off topic, but have you seen the latest Dr. Who yet? (Part 1 of the two-part series ender.) Day-um, but I am looking forward to Saturday's episode. I shall be sat in front of the telly at 7 o'clock, curtains drawn, beer to hand. RTD wasn't kidding when he told us that they had something spectacular lined up to end the series.
I think it's time to start a campaign to get Russell T. Davies a knighthood for services to Dr Who...
Thanks to BitTorrent, I watched it yesterday.
After two lame episodes, this one was a stunner, a great story with a surprise ending that I'm kicking myself for not having figured out before it was revealed in the very last scene. Even if you leave aside the surprise ending, the story was fantastic, with the images of thousands of Cybermen materializing all over the world in London, Paris, India, etc., were stunning.
This two-parter has the potential to be the best Doctor Who story yet since the series was resurrected last year.
Yes, I don't know how I failed to see it coming, either. Oh, boy, 10 million cybermen *plus* all those... ah, maybe I shouldn't give it away :-)
I wonder if the next series will resurrect the Ice Warriors - that would complete the big baddy trifecta of my youth.
So take nothing.

I don't know about "best"... putting in "Pooflinger" was sort of boring, so I put it "shyte" instead.

I think I need to make a change to my blog now...
"Come Fly the Friendly Julia"
I like to think of myself as friendly (I'm more so online than IRL, though), but to fly me?
