Sitemeter and Technorati - don't be shy to use them
(November 28, 2005) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Many people are apologetic about checking Sitemeter and Technorati, as if that was something to be revealing of vanity and to be embarassed about. But those two are essential tools in the conversation. You have to…

Mubarak Resigns: Is there a climate change connection?
The Egyptian dictator, Hosni Mubarak, has resigned, finally relenting to weeks of massive protests. Is he the latest casualty of climate change? This is a provacative question, but I believe one worth discussing. Obviously, there are always many factors in a people's uprising, the precise balance…

Ooh, but you see, the probability of those changes exhibiting specified complexity is a constant divided by the time, so nothing new ever happens.

Wow. Funny, and I wish I could use this in my high school classroom, but of course I can't. For that matter, the cartoonist will be the subject of a fatwa once certain Muslims get wise to this one. Islam has always prohibited any visual representation of the Prophet, and I don't think calling him 'Mo' is going to placate some folks...SH

Hey thanks! I wonder why I never see these cartoons in my local family newspaper? Hmmm...

I also wonder why the cartoonist never shows the barmaid. I bet she's hot.

Thank you, thank you PZ for introducing me to Jesus and Mo! When I looked at yesterday's strip I had tears rolling down my face at Mo's line "Does a bear transubstantiate?"
Thanks also for the post on alcohol and evolution. It really helped to crystalize microbial metabolism for me in a way I will never forget. Science should be fun. It sticks better that way. And Apikoros, I AM that barmaid (twenty years!).

Stuart: It's someone behind our POV, presumably Mo.

Correction: The invisible person is an apparently-anonymous barmaid. I was a little slow on the uptake.

I am the author of Jesus and Mo, and I can confirm that the barmaid is hot.

(Thanks for the link, PZ)

These are great, aren't they? I even found the one where the hotness of the barmaid is revealed:

So, kmiers, which one is it? Please post a picture. And by the way, just how many nights a week do you get Jesus and Mohammed in your bar?

Sorry, messed up the link. I'm only a biologist, folks.

What is a "Baby Spice"? That said, I would have to say Pamela Anderson. Before the boob job. And I thank whatever is is I feel like attributing satisfaction to THIS week that most of my clients are more enlightened than J 'n' Mo. After all I have been cultivating toward this outcome for many years. J and Mo feel uncomfortable sitting at my bar.
