I'm on vacation, so excuse the lack of posts. Blogging will resume tomorrow!
Even if I wasn't on vacation, I'm WAY too traumatized by the death of Steve Irwin to post anything.

I get up on this holiday morning, and what is the first thing that I see when I check out the ScienceBlogs most recent posts, but a bunch of posts on Pharyngula, Pure Pedantry, Dr. Joan Bushwell's Chimpanzee Refuge, and Evolving Thoughts, The Scientific Indian, and Afarensis?

I would suggest Matt Gallant, the FORMER host of "The Planet's Funniest Animals."
I just have seven words for you: third hottest science blogger on the internet. Think about it.
Congrats, Ms. Number One, by the way....
Holy shit! Who needs real scientific achievements when I can bask in this glory for the rest of my days?
No shit. Screw grad school. Let's go on tour.
I want a medal and a free car.
How about creepy nerd-lovers with a thing for parrots sending you unsolicited emails? Will that do?
Man, I don't even get that....
Well, Jeff Corwin's still with us, fortunately. He was definitely the pin-up guy for a whole generation of female grad students in my program.
Congrats on the hotness index! :), and yes, Matt Gallant is pretty cute. But he didn't have the same passion that Mr. Irwin had...
A friend sent me a link to a video with Steve Irwin at Late Night with Conan O'Brien (note the Swedish or Norwegian subtitles).
