The College Student
A year or two ago, my mom went to the funeral for a student in a class she helped teach at the local community college. I just found out a few hours ago that it was the guy who sat next to me on the first day and asked, “Do you read anime?”

I just ate a sammich...
…while watching the Benny Hill Show and Sarah Palin’s Alaska. In case you’re not familiar with these programs, one is a humorously scripted show about a rather awkward person doing silly things in front of a camera for attention, and the other is the Benny Hill Show. BA DUM TISH!

Farm-Wolves vs. Ranch-Wolves →
Or rather, “Wolves in the Midwest vs. Wolves in the West.  What’s the Difference? Us.” Now, here’s a curious article.  Any time you hear about human-wolf conflicts, you can bet on it originating in Alaska, the Rocky Mountain states, or Sweden, but never the Midwest.  The Midwest wolves have been increasing in number and slowly making their way southward without causing...

Revised Zodiac →
I’m not going to lie; I think this is pretty cool.  I don’t really care about the astrological whatnot, (not nearly as much as I like astronomical whatnot) so I’m quite happy to be an awesome FISHGOOOOOAT as opposed to some lady with a pot of water. Plus, astronomers have known (and said) this for years.  Decades, centuries, even over a millenia.  Heck, even I heard about this a...

Nutria Fur →
I have been waiting for this day! Nutrias are an invasive species in North America.  For quite some time, they were somewhat managed by the state governments, since the military needs training and moving targets are always great practice.  However, the dead rodents were simply tossed into garbage bags and disposed. Why not turn them into fluffy coats instead? :) By the way, the comments on the...

PETA, PETA, what is your problem? →
And I quote: “Animals in zoos become bored and stressed from confinement, and they develop a mental illness called “zoochosis”. Animals with zoochosis pace back and forth, sway from side to side, throw feces, bite the cage bars, repeatedly lick the bars and walls of the cages, and over-groom themselves, which can cause bald spots.  Some people think that zoos work to save endangered...
