First, a long article about a researcher who was trying to explain why Pittsburgh is turning out large numbers of techies, but not keeping them. He tried to correlate them with all sorts of things, and it wasn't until he tried correlating with gay populations that he hit the jackpot.
E-Village People
It's interesting, but it's also pretty funny in a number of places.
Also frombrynndragon, a particularly funny Onion article:
http://www.theonion.com/news/index.php?issue=4121&n=1
And, frompyat, we have the disturbing truth about evolution, via the new Creation Science museum: Animatronic Dinosaurs which tell you the Truth
Finally, since I've now made fun of stupid people and hard-line creationists (um, is there actually a difference? Who knows...), I will also make fun of my own establishment: The media. And the US military while I'm at it.
A high school student achieves the modern pinnacle of investigative journalism in an attempt to discover just how far army recruiters will go in the US to get "one more."
Lots of interesting and amusing reading. Have at!
