My Mom really wanted to see the filling — so here it is!

Who gives a grammar?

Friday, January 25th, 2008

I noticed that my previous post used the word “Its” where I should have used “It’s”. Sigh. It is hard enough to keep up with all the one-off communications in life. Email messages. Instant messages. Who has time to craft grammatically correct sentences?

Well, I don’t try to be intentionally horrible about it, but blogging is one of those “conversational” formats that lends itself well to breaking the rules. Sentence fragments. Misspeelings. poor capitalization. Embrace chaos.

Cavity

I used my handy USB microscope to check out my new cavity. It gets a filling on Monday, so I should be able to do a nifty before&after comparison.

Its in that crevice. The dentist said it probably wasn’t my fault, since a toothbrush bristle can’t reach into that space.

OMG. This is hilarious.

Look for the jammin’ EH & bass in the musical interludes at 1/2 and 15/16ths.

Evolution book from National Academy

Friday, January 4th, 2008

Are you a creationist? You’re not alone. But there is help: The National Academy of Sciences has updated its free booklet, “Science, Evolution, and Creationism“. Check it out, please; the modern world of science misses you.

Others have argued that science teachers should teach the “controversies” surrounding evolution. But there is no controversy in the scientific community about whether evolution has occurred. On the contrary, the evidence supporting descent with modification, as Charles Darwin termed it, is both overwhelming and compelling. In the century and a half since Darwin, scientists have uncovered exquisite details about many of the mechanisms that underlie biological variation, inheritance, and natural selection, and they have shown how these mechanisms lead to biological change over time. Because of this immense body of evidence, scientists treat the occurrence of evolution as one of the most securely established of scientific facts. Biologists also are confident in their understanding of how evolution occurs.

The Curse of the Black Piddle

Rachel and I made this movie over a year ago. I was holding out hoping she and I would record a soundtrack for it, but I decided that some music was all it needed.

Inspired by my father-in-law’s new interest in his old vinyl LPs:
