Science and Pinatas: Together at last!

Ben just alerted me of one of my humour pieces going up today at McSweeney's. Like the post title suggests, it's about science and pinatas. The key question, of course, is why did I categorize this post in the "humanities and social sciences," but to be honest, I'm not sure of that answer myself (what category do you think science pinatas should fall under?)

Anyway, my favourite bit is the part about the animal pinatas, but go here to read the piece in its full times font glory.

You may laugh, but the number of regular pinata-related fatalities has been steadily growing. You want statistics? I haven't had time to make them up yet.
