Hey, now. My people aren't anti-science!

I had to be induced - that was disappointing, but other than that, I had a pretty easy time. Labor only took like 6-8 hours and after we started pushing, he got here in about 15 minutes. It was a fairly relaxing day after I had the epidural.

Dear Midge, "my people" is rather vague...

The article specifically mentioned the city where I live. It was a little surprising - we are the third largest city in Missouri, but we are fairly small on the "city" scale (only 165k-ish). I think the area around here is considered the "buckle" of the Bible belt (geographically, anyway), though. They hold an anti-religion convention here at the local university called "Skepticon".

I can only assume that is why this article chose it as the home of the person who doesn't believe in science...

Yeah, well, I don't consider it my business to find out where my fellow mooters lodge... XD

"anti-religion convention here at the local university called "Skepticon"."

Why, I think Jaclyn Glenn was there... s'pose you don't know of her?? ??

And (in RL) why do I smell rotten apples? I'm in the computer class at my school... o.O


But, the new trailer for Jurassic World is up! See it and get excited

Well, since the fall of the presidency and the installation of the enlightened dictatorship, I'm pretty sure we took control of that too.

Yes - we are off the chocolate standard and onto paper money. A MUCH better system. And nothing to worry about. All that chocolate bullion is SAFELY locked away!!!

Thanks, Earn (sorry I'm on my phone, can't type your name properly)!

Anyone else know about that future goo-fridge?
