Science
Friday!
It's
2AM and I just finished today's cartoon. Why
is it so late? Well, it has nothing to do with
my clients. Really. Honest.
I love my clients. I love my clients. I love
my clients. I love my clients. I love my clients.
I love my clients. I love my clients. I love
my clients. I love my clients. I love my clients.
I love my clients. I love my clients. I love
my clients. I love my clients. I love my clients.
I love my clients.

In case you're not keeping
up with science news it's apparently true that
there are exactly three
separate strains of microbial flora in
the various guts of all humans. These bacteria
cross all
age,
race and gender lines though
there may be a relation to blood type. Too
early to tell yet.
Each variety works differently on different
foods so, needless
to
say, the yogurt
companies
are all
a-twitter
over the marketing possibilities. Especially
since it'll become quickly re rigueur for
foodie douchebags to learn which ecosystem
they're incubating so they can castigate the
odd waiter
for mistaking them for a Prevotella when everyone
knows they're a Ruminococcus.
Meanwhile, quick science factoid: You have
about 10 trillion cells in your body, but you
also about 100 trillion microbes in there,
too.
Ew.

Annnnnnnd last but not least, the quote of
the day:
"These
are the values inspiring those brave workers
in Poland ... They remind us that where free
unions and collective bargaining are forbidden,
freedom is lost." - Ronald Reagan

February
10, 2011: "We're going to have a relentless focus on creating jobs." -
John Boehner.
So far the list of GOP accomplishments for 2011 is:
(1) Attempted curtailing of abortion rights.
(2) Attempted defunding of Planned Parenthood.
(3) Attempted defunding of NPR.
(4) Investigating Muslims.
(5) Declaring English as America's Official Language.
(6) Reaffirming "In God We Trust".
(7) Challenging AARP's tax-exempt status.
(8) Approved defunct funding for failed
religious schools.
(9) Attempt to destroy Medicaid.
(10) Attempt to destroy Planned Parenthood
(11) Shutting down the government
(12) Attempt to destroy the EPA.
(13) Attempting to eliminate financial
counseling.
(14) Passed a House budget that gives $4 trillion in tax cuts to the
rich.
(15) Spend $500,000 to discriminate against gays.
(16) Continued
toadying for the rich.
Nope. No job creation here. Move along. Move along.
I'll keep adding to this list until the Republican House does something
to create jobs. I unhappily predict this is gonna be one lonnnnng list.

And
what lies is Fox News spewing lately? Another day, another Obama speech
