hummingwolf: Drawing of a creature that is part-wolf, part-hummingbird. (Hummingwolf by Dandelion)
Looking through a bunch of old e-mails, saw this in one of my friend Rory's old .sig files:

"Sure, it's fun to voluntarily separate from reality on occasion,
but the threat of a permanent divorce gives me the heebie-jeebies"

Actually, now that I think about it, I suspect she stole that one from me.

From various syndicated feeds:
The Tongue Map: Tasteless Myth Debunked. This was one of those things I never did understand in science class--I knew I could taste salt on the tip of my tongue or the back of my mouth, so why did people keep telling me I couldn't? In cases like this it's always reassuring to learn that the "experts" didn't know what they were talking about either. ([livejournal.com profile] livescience)

Sunscreen can be bad for you ([livejournal.com profile] scienceblog). Now I don't feel so guilty about the fact that I hardly ever remember to put it on.

"From Friday next week it will be illegal in the UK to covertly analyse someone's DNA. The Human Genetics Commission (HGC), which advises the UK government, says that such an act constitutes a 'gross intrusion' on their privacy" ([livejournal.com profile] new_scientist). Somebody out there cares about privacy. Isn't that quaint?

Christian Scientists want Massachusetts to rewrite their healthcare law ([livejournal.com profile] religionnewsblo). Seems they think that reimbursement of faith healers should qualify as a health benefit for employees.

From [livejournal.com profile] omnibrain:
The science of Snake-O-Vision.
Also, the psychology of clothing. Oh boy am I in trouble.

And now I need to go do something cleaning-related. Ciao!
