Biochemistry with the Celebrity Stars!

I'd watch this.

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

So people want to know more about the Toronto visit… They're charging for people to listen to me? Wow, I feel like Celine Dion now. You can get more information and order tickets at the CFI site. I am a little uncomfortable with the hyperbole on the poster, though. Couldn't they have said "world's…
I'm with Zach Wendling when it comes to the state of the union address - a completely pointless hour of interrupted TV programming at best. I can't imagine why anyone takes such an address seriously. It's an hour of empty words that no one in their right mind believes the President has any…
A Catholic school in Pennsylvania is trying to raise money for victims of the hurricane in an interesting way. They're playing Hanson's song "MMMBop" on the school's loudspeakers before and after school and in between every class and they won't stop until they've raised $3000. Man, let's hope no…
If you're like me, you love the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. And you're gonna love this clip especially. Follow this link and click on "Meet the F**ckers". It's a hilarious take on the government's response to Katrina that ends with Larry King asking Celine Dion if she has anything to sing to…

Hey! I also have a high-school diploma!

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

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?

LOL!

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

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.

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.

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.

LOL!
