If you’re anything like me, you bookmark all these sites that are “interesting”… Now I have hundreds of bookmarks and haven’t really read them all…
So, over the next week I think I’ll be posting some…
This is, after all, my own blog, and with 40-or-so visitors a day apparently some people actually read this shit…
So, let the games begin 
According to an article on MSNBC, rats appear to have some capability to think and reflect on the acquired knowledge…
Where is this world coming to now?? I mean if this is how it’s going to be we’re all domed!
“Imagine, for instance, that you’re a student going into a classroom to take an exam,” Crystal said. “You will often have some idea how well you’re going to do on the test. You know before you answer the questions whether you know or don’t know the answers. This pretty complex form of cognition, known as metacognition, is at the heart of the human condition.”
Increasingly, evidence of metacognition is found in rhesus monkeys and other primates, but little research has been done on it in other mammals. Crystal and his colleague Allison Foote decided to push the limit and see if rats were capable of it.
This is rather interesting, especially thinking of animal rights and the related issues — can we really treat animals almost as inanimate objects? Do they “feel”? How, if so?
This could potentially open many new doors in science…
I’m curious to see where this research will endup.
Very nice site I stumbled on.

I can’t find where I got this from… I think from just stumbling. no matter, this is very funny.

This is a great AD! Very funny and to the point. This is the kind of creativity that should be cherished over all the rest.
I envy the designer that came up with this idea:
All bibles should come with this warning!!
Actually, I find it slightly offensive that there is a bible at EVERY hotel room I go to… I was just at a fairly shitty hotel… Matter of fact, the absolute worst hotel I have ever been to… and… A BIBLE!
