Ice cream tastes better licked than spooned. Dr. Kass will be appalled to hear about scientific discrediting of his “yuckometer.”
(And yes, before you bother to comment, I know that his point wasn’t that licked ice cream doesn’t taste good.)

Is It Just Me?
Watching those video clips of the ACORN organizers giving speeches for Obama, one of them talks and acts like her IQ is about refrigerator temperature. And then there are those weird outfits, including the hats. It’s kind of frightening that these people vote at all, let alone register voters.
Weirdest Republican Endorsement Yet
Attempted page turner Mark Foley backs Barack.
As already noted, this isn’t going to affect my thinking at all, but it’s mightily strange. Was this guy ever really a conservative?
No Standing?
Some interesting thoughts on whether or not one can, or should be able to, sue God.
That’ll Teach Him
A woman in India decapitated a man she claimed assaulted her. Some great comments from the Freepers:

The Latest In Medical Transplants
… Patients who come into the hospital with suspected pneumonia now get an antibiotic within six hours, instead of four hours previously, to allow more time to assess the need for drugs.
One controversial strategy: fecal transplants. For one patient with recurrent C. diff, Kettering suggested a stool transplant from a relative, to help restore good bacteria in the gut. But Jeffrey Weinstein, an infectious-disease specialist at the hospital, says the patient “refused to consider it because it was so aesthetically displeasing.”
To say the least. Though some kinky folks might get off on it. It’s certainly a simple procedure compared to a heart or a kidney.
Some might argue that a lot of folks in Congress have already had the procedure done, except it was transplanted to the wrong location, considerably north of where it was supposed to go.
I Have Not Been Dreaming About Sarah Palin
Just for the record. These folks have, though, which would indicate that she’s really gotten into their heads. I think that there’s going to be a huge therapy bill come mid-November.
[Update a couple minutes later]
Has The Atlantic finally leashed its rabid pit bull? I’ve often wondered the last few years if the HIV has finally caught up with Andrew’s mind. Dementia, sadly, is one of the potential consequences.
News You Can Use
You (or at least they) can tell a woman’s v@ginal org@smic potential by watching the way she walks.
Being Back In LaLa Land
…I really appreciate reading about the seven most retardedmentally-challenged ways that celebrities attempt to go green.
These were all funny at the time, but it’s nice to see a well-annotated compendium.
