He grabbed her in a private place? I thought they were in a bar.

…. Oh, I see whatcha did there! You made “place” the location to make a joke like you didn’t understand… Ha!… ……..

You meant “Fatgirl costume“, right?

Alter ego of Baby Huey.

I question the timing: The same day astronomers announce finding an earth-like planet 20 light years from us

Bryan, please tell me you aren’t falling for this pile of assumptions masquerading as science?

I read this article and couldn’t believe just how ridiculous it was:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/technology/technology.html?in_article_id=450467&in_page_id=1965&in_page_id=1965&expand=true#StartComments

I attempted to comment, but as usual the site doesn’t approve comments that are critical.

Here’s what I typed out last night though (and saved to a text file, assuming they wouldn’t approve it)

I was limited on characters in their comment box, so bear with it.

Boy are the “scientists” desperate to prove evolution true. Crazy assumptions are the norm with evolutionists, but these types of articles take the cake:

“It’s got the same climate as Earth, plus water and gravity. A newly discovered planet is the most stunning evidence that life – just like us – might be out there.”

Wow, you see a light reflected, and read all that in to it?

“…appears to confirm the suspicions of most astronomers that the universe is swarming with Earth-like worlds.”

So you find one (that you’re totally making assumptions about in the first place), and this confirms a swarm? Riiiiiight

“If there is life, it has had many billions of years to evolve.”

That doesn’t even fit with evolutionary dogma. Even if you accept evolution, you can’t assume life arose at the beginning. What if it arose yesterday for the first time?

“the fact that it shows that Earth-like planets are probably extremely common in the Universe”

Again, you’ve got to be kidding.

Keep in mind scientists are still scratching their heads over activity on Jupiter and Saturns moons.

Anyway, the point is, there is nothing (as far as I can tell) to indicate all these “Earth-like” conditions they keep talking about. They simply found a body floating in the band that according to their calculations would lie in the “sweet spot” around it’s star that Earth lies in around our star. That doesn’t imply water, rocks, life. Not even close. But rest assured, hundreds of millions are students around the world are having this tricked played on them today.

I’m surprised Cap hasn’t been resurrected yet.

Ever notice how all the big-name superheroes were created decades ago? The Marvel gang is so morally conflicted now they couldn’t create a hero if they tried. Capitulation Man maybe.

And who disguised as a meek nerdy Senate Majority leader from Nevada…. CAPITULATION MAN!!!

Debbie is right. It explains why I’ve been obsessing over Kurosawa flicks and spaghetti westerns.

Although, we still have the new and improved Batman!

And it’s way too long and a big mess. Too many villains, too many silly story lines, too much Generation Me.

That is a great picture. :)

I hear that planet is closer to it’s Sun than mercury is too ours.

Hey look fellas i’m in the Goldilocks Zone!

Isn’t Captain America dead now? I thought a sniper took him out.

It was Boooosh.

Is Rumsfeld looking at the spidey package?

I think we need a larger version of that pic.
