In the Colorado Café Scientifique, people (often science buffs) come together in a friendly pub after work and hear a free, informal, introduction to an interesting current scientific topic, led by an expert. They take a short break for refreshments, to meet new people, and chat, and then return for questions and answers and general discussion. Everyone and anyone is welcome and they meet at the Wynkoop Brewing Company starting at 6:30 PM in the large & comfortable first floor Mercantile Room. All questions and comments are welcome, as this isn’t a seminar, it’s a chance for everyone to learn, express an opinion, and drink a beer. This months meeting is on Tuesday the 27th of March (2007) and is titled: “Stem Cells: Hype or hope? Clearing away the confusion”

I love these Cartoon Laws of Physics
Cartoon Law IX: Everything falls faster than an anvil.
Cartoon Law X : For every vengeance there is an equal and opposite revengeance. This is the one law of animated cartoon motion that also applies to the physical world at large. For that reason, we need the relief of watching it happen to a duck instead.
Cartoon Law Amendment A: A sharp object will always propel a character upward.

Five Pounds Of Crawfish, A Six Pack Of Beer

Since we now have a coon-ass in the family, Mardi Gras and its associated holiday’s, have become much more important. At least the party part of them has. Yesterday’s Fat Tuesday was no different (though my sister-inlaw wasn’t involved at all). Me and G headed over to Lincoln’s Raodhouse (home of the meat loaf cheeseburger and pot roast burrito), or as it is affectionately called during Mardi Gras: Poirrier’s Cajun Cafe, for their annual crawfish boil. How do you say it Down South? Crawfish or Crayfish? We called them crawdads growing up. Anyway, we settled up to five pounds of crawfish, a six pack of beer, a roll of paper towels, and several beaded necklaces.
The place got pretty crowded and the kitchen was churning out bucket after bucket of crawfish as fast as it could and it wasn’t close to keeping up with demand. By the time the washboard band that was crammed in the corner started blaring their zydofied (I think I just invented a word) zz top music, the place was standing room only. The dancing began but we left before the place it was in full fervor, which, given the clientele in this place, was probably a good idea. I don’t care to imagine the place with beads, beer bottles, and boobs flying around.

There will be a butt-load of bands playing at this year’s SXSW. As an introduction, they’ve put up a torrent of 739 MP3s by 739 artists. Looks like I need to clear some space on my hard drive.

Celebrate Mardi Gras or Shrove Tuesday with IHOP. Today they’ll give you one free short stack (three) of their famous buttermilk pancakes.
(Naked) Lawn Ornaments
My girlfriend hardly ever reads this blog. She knows about it. But I think the stuff I post here has little or no interest to her. I believe she read a lot of the old stuff when we first started dating, but none of it was as juicy as she had hoped it would be. In fact, I don’t think I even have any old girlfriend pictures on here. I mean, that’s what you’re looking for when you sneak through your significant others stuff, isnt it? Anyway, I think she only stops by once a month just to make sure I didn’t post those nakie pictures of us.
When we had the big storm last December she stomped out in the middle of the night, during the heavy snowfall and took pictures of our lawn ornaments - the ladybug, the funky flamingo, and the glowing orb. When she came back inside she handed me the camera and said, “Check it out, it’s for your blog”. I figured since she just came back inside from a blizzard, the pictures weren’t the nudies I was hoping for. They are, however, the first girlfriend contributed entry, so for that you should be thankful, because if she reads this, I’m guessing it’ll probably be the last. Enjoy.

This short video of a Giant Squid is a reminder that the oceans depths can be a very scary place.
