Plait v. Zimmer

Phil's been stealing my pseudoephedrine again.

PZ, I would think you could just secrete some neurotoxin or some such squidy thing!

I wonder what sort of toxic cephalopod PZ is most closely related to? Blue-ringed octopus perhaps?

My vote is for Pfeffer's Flamboyant Cuttlefish. It's fabulous.

I dunno if PZ would want to have either method for delivering the toxin into Phil though. *cough*

I think the PZ of the wild animal kingdom would have a just-for-show defense mechanism, because underneath the rough exterior, he's a real puppy dog. I'm thinking his neck flaps would extend and turn beet red and he'd hiss. That would teach his opponents to let him finish and not interrupt.

Or maybe his lenses just turn from light to dark, depending on the venue for the debate!

hehe, Phil vs Pz, cue the Star Trek fight music

"I'm going to have to send him a horse tranquilizer to swallow first..."

...Yeah, but you'd do that to him, anyway... O_O

You must do one of these some time. It's your duty as a science blogger!

So funny, poor Carl hardly got to speak at all. I loved that part around 33 minutes where he just decided to talk right over Phil, that made me laugh.

You mean, Phil is like that all the time?

Here's my imitation of Carl.

...mmm hmmm...
...hmmm...
...mmm hmmm...
...mmm hmmm...

:D

Still an interesting interview, though.

Bullet, PZ did a bloggingheads episode with Abbie from ERV several months ago... here's the link in case you haven't seen it:

P.Z.

If you make to Dragon*Con... Phil will be there... Be prepared! ;)

Thank goodness that Carl didn't get to do too much talking. C'mon, Carl, it's not that tricky. Stop saying "uh, uh, uh" between every two or three words.

Mmmmm... Ketamine...

Poor, poor Phil. He's gone off the deep end, ranting and raving about the Kaiser - http://bloggingheads.tv/diavlogs/17888?in=56:48&out=56:52

O:)

phil has bigger problems than that. ever read his stupid 'hawt women' posts?
