Echinoderms & Those That Love Them Need to Hang It Up

Snail over at A Snail's Eye View, one of the best blogs on the triple -W, casts a firm vote for the Mollusks. Snail reminds also reminds us that Google delineates a clear winner. Arthropods also suck. And just in case Peter and Kevin get a little confused and start thinking about corals. For a recap of everyone's stance...

Yes, Weblog Awards are up again. Not everyone's favourite (as opposed to the Koufaxes), as they are easily freeped and one can find candidates who should not be there, i.e., blogs that have not written anything factual in years, e.g., right-wingers in political categories, pseudoscientists in…

And DSN bounces off the ropes, grabs Bushwell's and chomps hard! But he's ambushed! Ambushed! Rocket Science trips DSN, and Bushwell rolls on top, grabs the hair, and bounces his chin off the floor!

It's probably fair to say that Sheril is the best thing that holothurians have going for them at this point... :)

Maybe this is simply an indication that those who study echinoderms have better things to do (like real research) than waste their time blogging or discussing the wonders of echinoderms online.

No, Its just a vindication of their inferiority. If they thought so highly of their study organisms, they would be spreading their love for and knowledge of their spiny-skinned objects of affection.

And who is wasting time by reading blogs? ahem...

Well, I'm not studying echinoderms currently and unfortunately. I'm studying the effects of estrogen on guinea pig and mouse brains; therefore, I have lots of time on my hands for distractions of the marine kind.

So, if we were going with tunicates here, could we use their Phylum? 'cause if we can, I somehow get the feeling they might trounce y'all. TUNICATA 4EVAH!

Take your tunicate comments elsewhere, they are not welcomed here
