Chloe is so cute.

I've been making movies of Chloe's shenanigans tonight, trying to capture her charming manner of shaking the water-bottle while drinking and her full-body shake of the cage's front door. I got some of it, but now I have several minutes of excess. Anybody use a decent freeware movie editor out there?

By the way, I have discovered that the clamp that locks her gate is necessary: She gets the gate pushed open every day now by holding the gate and throwing her body against it while gripping the cage with her teeth. It is so cute; I hope I can post a movie soon. If it weren't for that 80-sheet paper clamp, she'd be on the lam every single day.

Little jailbreaker.

Avoiding the word "evolution" in science writing. What's next? Avoiding doing science?

Evolution by Any Other Name: Antibiotic Resistance and Avoidance of the E-Word

This article gives me the creeps. Thanks to adammaker for the link.

So: Not using the word "evolution" is a conspiracy, except that - ironically - the conspirators are the scientists themselves. Shame.

Dogs. And lasers.

Um. I don't think I can explain this video beyond that. You just have to watch it.

In the immortal words of Ted "Theodore" Logan, "Whoah. Excellent!"

burning down the ... um, office

Something in my room is burning or melting down. Smelly burnt-electronics stench fills the office. This is making me nervous, because I can't identify what's self-destructing.

Turned off some lights, but it's still smelly. Perhaps this is my monitor saying that it's about time to be replaced.
