It was a shame when our congress kilt the Texas Supercollider in the 80’s. That was the end of us and our educational futures. Did you know they convinced congress to kill the project by claiming that fire ants would eat the wiring and destroy the project?

Our GOP does not want our children to be educated. They dont. That’s part of the vast right wing conspiracy: to keep voters dumb, so the GOP can stay in power.

If voters had more than a Kindergarden grade education, (and that’s as far as most schools go, in fact, the book, “all i need to know i learned in kindergarden is still number one on the best seller list for helmeted short bus riders, or 90% of all Americans) then no repudlickan could ever gain office.

We’re stupid. We’re fat. And that’s no way for a country to go through history now is it?

Our supercollider was the most important project in the history of science, even more important that the Apollo Project or the Manhatten Project.

What are we? Where were we? Who are we? How are we? Why are we?

Our greatest genius was Mozart. he comunicated human better than anyone else. next was helen keller, who was captured by the nazis and keeled to death, and for the handicapped, the next greatest human was Anne Frank, who finally learned how to say, “WawWaw”, and suddenly realized that her teacher wasn’t just tickling her hand, but was trying to teach her to read, even though she was both deaf, dumb, and blind, and fat and stupid, because the day she was born was the day the congress kilt the supercollider like the no good, thievin’ education vetoin’ pirates they truly are.

Lets see if I can tell you why you’re stupid. Take light from a lightbulb. What do you know about what you’re seeing when you turn on a lightbulb? First, it’s the same substance as the nagasaki a-bomb. It’s called radiation. Electromagnetic radiation. The only difference between a star exploding and a lightbulb is the frequency of the electromagnetic radiation. Period.

I know that’s a lot to absorb, so I’ll stop, but now do you get the sense of how fat and stupid you are?

Unless we realize what we are, we’re doomed to stay fat and stupid and to keep re-electing GOP scum.

The electromagnetic energy that escsapes from a 150 watt light bulb dissipates within 3 inches. A microwave oven’s electromagnetic energy exudes 3’. Electric blankets are the worst threat most people encounter.

Thank you, Dixie, but infrared, ultraviolet, visible light are all of the same essence, as are gamma rays, xrays, and all sorts of cosmic rays. It’s all the same substance, just at different frequencies. Do you know what that means? Different frequencies? This is the crux of understanding light itself. Is it a wave? Is it a particle? Is it a particle that acts like a wave? (or vice versa). Guess what? It all depends on the apparatus that an observer sets up to view the light wave/particle. You see, Dixie, when you measure electromagnetic radiation, a graph of moving paper with a pen going up and down, (up when the signal is strong, down when the signal is weak) shows waves, you know, like looking perpendicular to the sea level waves. Up and down curves, you know, you’ve seen it a thousand million times. But guess what? That’s nothing like what light is. It’s only what your apparatus can depict about light. You set up that experiment and you observed it, therefore, to communicate to others, you say, “Light is a wave, see? up and down. It’s a wave.” But it’s not. Light behaves whichever way it can behave given the constraints of an apparatus. The observer sets up the apparatus to detect and measure that light. It takes an observer. It takes apparatus. That’s where Einstein comes in. but you’ll never understand the rest of this story, so why bother, but I’m glad you brought up the microwave, because I’m sure you have one, and Dixie, now listen closely: In the early seventies, the manufacturers knew that microwaves leaked. Leaked alot. Leaked dangerously. However, they decided to go ahead and sell them anyway. WannaKnowY? Because they reasoned that a wife would be “moving around the kitchen, doing stuff, while the microwave was on, and therefore wouldn’t be subject to the deadly electromagnetic radiation escaping from the oven at a toxic frequency which can instantly mutate your DNA and cause breast cancer, that a person standing still and watching the popcorn pop would. (totally wrong conclusion). AND guess what coincides with the epidemic of breast cancer in this country since the introduction of microwave ovens in the seventies? Duh.

I dont care if you dont understand it. Einstein couldn’t explain his theory to anyone. He was his own audience. Every try to read Einstein? He wrote a little pamphlet called, “Relativity explained so that anyone can understand it”. Read that pamphlet. I’m sure it’s on the net.

Then blog about the spectrum. Know what?

You cant. But self exam, Dixie, and mammagram. twice a year. Do it. I worry about you. UC I cant expect you to be as well read as me, but I can care about your health as a fellow cosmonaut on spaceship earth as we voyage through this galaxy on a collision course with Sarah Palin.

Stone,

I picked up on that from previous articles. With luck you’ll enjoy 17+++ more.

Tar & Feathered, I was in Royston yesterday at a small eatery and overheard someone say the “complete lack of respect for the law” remark. I didn’t realize The Apostled had commented under Ty Cobb before. I wonder if I was at the table next to him.

What do you say The Apostled? Are you from Royston? And by the way the light that you actually see is the energy escaping. You don’t actually see a lightning bolt. Static builds up until it finds a path to release friction. As the friction scatters it’s parts, tremendous energy is created. Then as the energy is released what you see is “the light”. An incandescent bulb has a thread that heats up. What you “see” is the energy from the heat as it escapes.

Tip - If your microwave dinner says “Let stand in oven for 1-2 minutes after cooking is complete.” * Leave it in the microwave* Your food absorbs this electromagnetic energy as the micro is running. The energy can escape from dry foods quickly because its easier to move through air than liquid. If the food is high in liquid it takes longer for this energy to escape. If you eat the food right away the energy ends up in your body. They put that statement in the instructions to reduce thier liability if you get throat cancer from scarfing your food right out of the oven.

Grading Steve Rose: C+

I liked the open. The callback to the Stones was good because people were making many references to it a while back and it was a nice surprise. Great callback joke.

The next joke P’d me off because the LHC is in Europe, not Vermont USA. We had our shot at a supercollider and cut the funding for it. That still burns. It’s a disaster in education and history and physics and detracts from every aspect of America and the World. Dont P your audience off.

The third joke, the ham sandwich in a microwave/wet pants made no sense. There was a commercial decades ago about a cartoon physicists who was having a ham on rye and making tea in his lab using the lab equipment. SO this was a good callback, just not executed. Perhaps the physicist could have used the collider itself to heat his ham sandwich, but then you’d have to think of a very funny consequence that was connected to something you either mentioned before, or to current events. Something to show cleverness. Anything. (the time to heat the sandwich was knocked down from 15 seconds to 13 seconds; progress)

The wife talking shop with the physicist could have been gold. Steve blew the chance to contrast old fashioned kitchen smarts with the scientist’s jargon about the collider. Steve blew a big chance to use “stove top stuffing”. Woulda killed, sir.

The piece ends with a Seinfeld reference about Bizarro World which could have tipped the balance here, but Steve, you did nothing with it, but mention Bizarro World. Think of the way current events characters would act in Bizarro World, or even Jim Wooten and Jay Nookwood. You coulda had a field day….

McCain’s decision was the most deft campaign decision in our History. It even beat the Veep Choice James A Polk made with that squaw Susqueteena. This was when we first saw Indians, and they were still enjoying their celebrity. Americans loved everything Indian for months during the campaign of 1822. Susquiteena appeared on the cover of the Farmer’s Almanac with a bow and arrow, and a pride of rabbits slung over her shoulder. America was in love. Polk stole that election and then had Susqueteena put on a reservation, and replaced by James A Garfield, establishing a political dynasty that lasted till the civil war.

CNN just reported that Green Party candidate Cynthia McKinney has chosen Sasquatch, or Bigfoot as her Veep Choice for 08. Her polls have bounced 50% since the announcement and is now considered a possible spoiler for Liar-loan McCain.

Stone- I was worried. I love Tina Fey and think she was hilarious as Palin. How those girls kept a straight face is well beyond me. I couldn’t do it.

Hey Sarah. (a song sung to the tune of Que Sera).

When I was just a city mayor, I asked my council what pork should be. Will it corrupt us, will it impede, here’s what they said to me. Hey Sarah Sarah, your future is ours to grease, as long as you are discreet. Hey Sarah Sarah.

When I was just a governor, I asked Alaska should we secede

Should we be sovereign, should we be free, here’s what they said to me

Hey Sarah Sarah, you cant mess with liberty, the country’s not ours to bleed, Hey Sarah Sarah.

When I became the first FemVeep, I asked my ticket what should I be? Should I be graceful, should I be sweet, or should I be Hillary? Hey Sarah, Sarah, (everybody sing), the future’s not ours to see, depends on Diebold’s tally, Hey Sarah Sarah.

What we’ll be we’ll be.

You guys are gonna make me pee in my pants. Who needs Jon Stewart? We could have our own show, except the FCC would kick us off the air for extreme obscenity.

This liar-loan-loser has way too much time on his hands. He lives to post on blogs desperately trying to fill an empty life it seems. Maybe tar and feth was onto something ‘cause this guy’s whacked.

I loved his song. It’s almost as good as “My favorite things”.

Still my all time fav is “Bomb, bomb, bomb, - - bomb, bomb Iran”. Sung to Beach Boys “Barbara Anne”. I think it came from a Luckovich cartoon.

A new Arizona law will allow cage fighters in the sport of mixed martial arts to elbow their opponents, knee them in the head or punch them in the face while they are on the ground.

This is a front page article in the Arizona Republic. Glorifying brutality when someone is down is so messed up. It goes right along with the whole “Man-up” thing.

Officer, It’s 10:00 at night. I don’t want to read heavy material. I want to chuckle. Just keep doing what you do. Thank you.
