  • Reminder: things aren't so great in the UK, either…

    Jack over at Two Nil Blank Blank gave me a heads up as to some goings on in England right now. He has a nice rant about worthless homeopathic crap being sold in all the major pharmacies. He also mentions the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, which is now about to begin allowing such charlatans to make unsupported claims…

  • NO TIME FOR BLOGGING!

    Okay, the day has been insane, the office is closing early, I left my camera batteries at home, and I have a flight to London to catch. Sorry, guys! Enjoy the following two weeks of Bug_Girl, Teek, and Skepchic, plus perhaps the occasional “Hey I’m still alive” post from me on the road. xo

  • Using Obscure Religions to Your Benefit

    My friends Loki, Morgan, and I arrived at the karaoke bar around 7pm, where Skeezy McLimpsalot (all names have been changed slightly) appeared out of nowhere. He had met Loki and Morgan at previous karaoke nights and introduced himself to me. We were starved. Skeezy told us that the kitchen wasn’t open, but there was karaoke and food at a…

  • A Rare Monkey-Free Post

    Sorry for the late update, everyone, but I spent most of my morning gabbing with James “The Amazing” Randi for an upcoming episode of The Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe. You can also click that link or check iTunes to download the latest episode, which features an interview with Ray Hyman. Ray told us all about the Ganzfeld experiments from his first-hand…

Pay no attention to my awful sound quality; I assure you it is no indicator of the quality of what I actually say (which remains at its usual level of near-idiocy). According to iTunes at the moment of typing, we are ranked number 28…

  • “I asked her her name, she said bla bla bla…”

    “…she had 9/10 pants and a very big bra.” Biz Markie, 1989 Years ago, I was browsing a rack of jeans at a store with my boyfriend at the time. “What size do you need,” he asked. “I don’t know, probably a 9.” He pulled a pair out and glanced at the tag. “Dear lord!” “What?” “They’re a ‘half!’ Who…

  • Snubbed again.

    Well, Time Magazine’s list of 100 “men and women whose power, talent or moral example is transforming our world” has hit the streets, and once again it appears as though they’ve overlooked me. I don’t blame them, really — they had quite a pool of applicants (more than six billion, I assume), so it’s inevitable that they’d overlook one or…
