"Entomologists are not like other people. Lucky enough to score a cool parasitic larva burrowing in your skin after a visit to Central America? The obvious thing to do is to rear your maggot out in your body until it’s an adult fly. For science." - Ken Morley

Wee, sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie, Braw science says that at the leastie We share full ninety-nine per cent O' genes, where'er the odd ane went. - Ken Morley

O nibblin, pink-tail'd, bright-ee'd sir, We hail frae ane sma' fearful blur 'Neath dinosaur feet, lang syne— Na mair be pestie, cousin mine. - Ken Morley

Stay oot my larder, oot my traps An' they'll snap softer doon, p'rhaps, For theft and murther blither go When a's i' th' family, bro' an' bro'. - Ken Morley

Yukon wood! - Ken Morley

"Had she paints, or clay or knew the discipline of the dance, or strings: had she anything to engage her tremendous curiosity and her gift for metaphor, she might have exchanged the restlessness and preoccupation with whim for an activity that provided her with all she yearned for. And like any artist with no art form, she became dangerous." - Ken Morley

"Not only are the rich getting richer, though, but because they're getting more of their money from capital gains, they're getting taxed less, too. Remember, the top tax rate is 39.6 percent on ordinary income, but it's just 23.8 percent on capital gains—and was 15 percent in 2010. That's why the top 400 households only paid an effective rate of 18 percent then." - Ken Morley

I'm gonna need more books. - Ken Morley

Pretty smart utilization of tablet + home wifi. I image you would just plop your tablet in there while you are at work. It probably charges it too. - Ken Morley

"A loan of $225 helps Ma. Mila to purchase more groceries to sell." - Ken Morley

Here's a deal for you, Friendfeeders: use this link: http://www.kiva.org/team... to make a $25 loan, and I'll match up to 3 of them. (Unless they still offer the first one free/I get one free, in which case there will be no limit!) - That one guy. Bren.

"It is disingenuous for the Republican-controlled House Committee on Science, Space and Technology to promote the idea that scientists are wasting millions of taxpayer dollars to run shrimp on treadmills based on a 30-second video clip. Given that every teaspoon of seawater can contain millions of bacteria, it does not take a mental giant to understand that the health of marine organisms and the safety of the seafood we eat are closely related." - Ken Morley

Still, this led me to look up shrimp on treadmills on YT and I found one set to Eye of the Tiger: https://www.youtube.com/watch... - Andrew C (see frenf.it)

I love that someone took the time to do this. That background guitar totally syncs with the movement of its little legs. :) - Ken Morley
