Ramble Strip

There's no stripping. (Sorry.) But there's rambling, usually in the area of science, politics, pop culture, signs that are irritatingly misspelled, and religion, or anything that happens to be on my mind at the time. I post on study breaks, so that I don't go insane. Insaaaaaaaane!

The cats, the cats!!

It's possibly a side effect of being deliriously tired, but I just can not stop laughing at this string of cat video clips. (Taken of cats, not by cats.)

Right-click and "save as". It's about 2.7MB, I think. I'm kind of scaring myself, being so amused at this clip ... sometime in the future, if I start commenting on Bob Saget's refreshing wit, please call for help. Thank you.

Edit: Whoooops. The link that I posted the other day took you on a road to nowhere. Sorry about that. Anyway, the punchbaby link works and this is a great clip. Cats falling into stuff, out of stuff, and off of stuff is always funny. Particularly when they keep their heads*, and all of these do! Whee!

I am so deliriously tired. I opened one of the incubators at the lab the other night, and I am almost certain I heard something in there sneeze. I thought one of my prokaryotes had been in there clicking its heels (er ... flagella) together and reciting, "If I only had an upper respiratory system!" Or, perhaps I've been wrong and the theory of evolution is true after all ... maybe if I had left the sneezing bacterium in there long enough, I would have opened that incubator one day to find a bewildered-looking guy sitting on one of the shelves. "Who are you? Where am I? What did you do with my 70s ribosomes???"

Man, I need SLEEP!

*I should mention that the headless-cat clip I linked up there (not the punchbaby link, the other one) is horrible and cruel and every other word that means eeeeeevil. I only linked it to explain the reference that I made. The good news is, I probably won't turn into a serial killer anytime soon, because I didn't laugh like a hyena at the headless-cat clip, unlike SOME PEOPLE.
