I managed to sneak in to my local watering hole tonight where they have free wifi, so I could share this video with you. In this streaming video, Bush begs Americans for a chance to atone on for his sins on the 4th anniversary of the Iraq "cakewalk," in a satirical rendition of "Please Release Me" by Jim Terr. Yeah, it's a little bit graphic at the end, but so is Bush's tenure [2:36].
Okay, it's time for me to go home to my little birdnest in Manhattan, where I do not have wifi or any other internet access at all, bummer.

I couldn't help it, but in honor of the Queen attending today's Kentucky Derby, I had to post this streaming video of the Queen Victoria Handicap.
Yes, I know the Derby isn't a steeplechase, but this was the best I could do with what I had available to me.
grrlscientist | April 11, 2007This streaming video gets to the point regarding Iraq .. which of course, means it is not safe for work (so watch it in the broom closet while on your lunch break).

grrlscientist | April 10, 2007This story has been around the block a few times, but I thought it was appropriate to share with you anyway.
A major research scientific institution has just announced the discovery of the densest element yet known to man and science. The new element has been named Bushcronium. The scientific symbol for the new Bushcronium is the letter "W".
Bushcronium has one neutron, twelve assistant neutrons, seventy-five deputy neutrons, and two hundred and twenty-four assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of three hundred and eleven.

grrlscientist | March 8, 2007GrrlScientist Note: Tomorrow is PZ's birthday so I thought I would share this paper with him and all of you, just as a reminder of the time when he ranted about his family cat's bad behavior. I think Midnight's bad manners are the result of PZ's beard. Don't believe me? Here's proof!
