I hope everyone had a good Mothers Day weekend. It went really well at our house except pretty much everyone was sick at some point. There seems to be some little bug going around that lasts a couple days. At least I’m hoping thats all the longer it lasts because the weather is getting nicer and I want to stop being sick til next winter.
Well it’s Monday morning so here is some light news and humor to start your week out right.
The Republican’s started off Mother’s Day weekend by voting against Mothers Day. This isn’t really funny, its just sick. And you all thought that Republicans were the family values party. lol (final vote results here)
This is really cool and not as geeky as it sounds initially. There is a new game Fold It that makes protein folding competitive and fun. As you work through the levels you are taught the basics just like any other problem solving game. The game requires no science knowledge as it relies on intuitive thinking and problem solving skills. What makes this really cool is that as you advance you have the potential to make actual scientific discoveries as you work on unsolved proteins. (h/t Richard Dawkins)
A group known as “The Resistance“, which is an incestuous crossbreed of conspiracy theorists and Christian fundamentalism, has launched a boycott of Starbucks over its new Logo which shows a topless mermaid. The Resistance also supports Ron Paul. I know thats obvious from the description of the group but I wanted to point that out anyhow.
God Tube Video Of the Week
Every week we will be featuring our favorite crazy video from God Tube. If you haven’t checked it out that place is a virtual gold mine of crazy. I just started watching video’s from there last week and it is simply AMAZING. If you have a favorite clip from God Tube let me know and if its funny and crazy enough I’ll post it so we can all point and laugh.
Music Video of the Week
This weeks music video was first posted at Loganotron so stop by and say thanks. You probably know this one so go ahead and sing along. Get your co-workers in on the fun too. This version is Corky and the Juice pigs who do a very good rendition of “I’m The Only Gay Eskimo”.
There you all go, have a great Monday and as always consider this an open thread. I would like to hear if anyone did anything great this weekend for your mothers, sisters, wives … etc.
Thanks

Unicorns, It’s In The BibleIf the creation museum isn’t fantastic enough to sate your Bible based entertainment needs perhaps you would be more interested in the Unicorn Museum. “Based on the idea of ‘if it’s in the Bible, it must be true’, The Unicorn Museum promotes belief in the Biblical Truth of unicorns, a creature mentioned nine times in the KJV Bible.” (h/t Trailer Park Feminist)
Jesus’ & Chompers Fight CrimeNo word on the website if we will get to see an exhibit with Jesus’ dinosaur. Thats always been my favorite Bible story.
p.s. this is satire just like the creation museum. You didn’t seriously believe that a “museum” that features man and dinosaur living together was serious. Suckers! You all just fell for a classic example of Poe’s Law.
p.p.s Here is John Scalzi’s old but timeless review of the creation museum.

Mike Gravel, Most Entertaining Candidate
Categorized: Democrats
Tagged: Just For Fun, Mike Gravel
No matter if Clinton or Obama gets the nomination I have firmly decided on who gets my vote for most entertaining candidate. No its not either of them, though both have had their moments. Hillary drinking shots and Obama’s bowling come to mind right away. It’s not Ron Paul even though he is still by far the most bat shit insane candidate. Nope, Mike Gravel has provided the most entertainment by a long shot. I will admit that Ron Paul’s balloon was pretty funny though.
So here is a small collection of my favorite Mike Gravel video’s. The first one is the most recent and is the one that tipped the scale for me.
Mike Gravel has some good music video’s as well.
But mostly Mike Gravel is just weird and disturbing.
So what are your guys favorite Mike Gravel video’s? There have been a lot of them and I’m sure that I have missed some of the better ones. If you have a favorite that I missed please post a link in the comments below. Thanks

I don’t really have much today as I spent the entire weekend programming and working on a clients project. I did find two creationist videos at Hell’s Handmaiden that I would like to share with all of you. You may or may not have seen them before but they are still worth a good laugh.
If we don’t stop the spread of creationism this is the kind of “science” that our children will be taught. We recently got lucky in Florida but we can’t count on luck when our children’s education is at risk.
