Martian Molybdenum?

Scientists Say Life On Earth Started In Mars

"Prof Benner said the element molybdenum was thought to be a catalyst that helped organic molecules develop into the first living things."

Molybdenum? Boy, was I ahead of the curve or what? During the early part of our relationship, Mr. Cube was looking at my books, and he spotted one entitled, "Molybdenum," and he asked me, "You have a book about molybdenum?... and he married me anyway :-)

I love it.

Isn't that a good thing to read?

Big Cat Drama

This story made my husband and me laugh like crazy this morning...

Big Cat Has Northeast Detroit Neighborhood On Edge

Four feet tall?

It stared at you?

Really?

Knocker Shocker

REPORTER DOES TV INTERVIEW TOPLESS TO PROVE POINT

I don't think I'd be a reporter under those circumstances.

Rocker Shocker

Linda Ronstadt: Parkinsons Disease Has Left Me Unable To Sing

I'd rather remember Linda Ronstadt like this when she was singing with her beautiful voice.

Her politics were dreadful, but you don't have to like the artist to appreciate the art.

Detroit Dogs

As Many As 50,000 Abandoned Dogs Roam Detroit In Packs As Humans Dwindle

Oh my... imagine what's going on with the people?

Why No Outrage?

If Barack Obama Had A Son Would He Look Like Chris Lane?

Where's the outrage from Barack Obama?

Or from Al Sharpton?

Or from Jessie Jackson?

Or from Oprah Winfrey?

Lee Thompson Young 1984- 2013

Rizzoli And Isles Star Lee Thompson Young Dead At 29

Knew him only as Detective Frost on Rizzoli and Isles... what a shame that someone so young took his life.

What makes someone so young do that?

It's so sad.

Dick Van Dyke Rescued From Burning Car In LA

To add insult to injury, Van Dyke tripped over an ottoman on his way out of the burning car.

Meh Monday

*sigh*

For this Cat Blog Friday...

... a cat ready for anything from Area 51. She's got her tinfoil hat.

Happy Friday everybody.

Literally?

Dictionaries Change: This Is Literally The End Of The English Language

Oh my goodness, this is figuratively insane. This is something I can't literally fathom.

Tattoos.
Gold, gold, gold.
Fancy cable packages.
Pay-per-view movies.
Video consoles and the latest games.
Concerts.
Restaurants.
Low mortgage payments thanks to Section-8 housing.

*sigh*

Gun Safety

Instructor Shoots Student In Gun-safety Class

This bonehead is CCW certified?

I was taught to consider every gun I touched to be loaded until I made sure it wasn't.

Florida... what more can I say?

Cat Blog Friday

For this Cat Blog Friday...

... a Mother Teresa cat.

Why?

Back story: On Tuesday, my youngest daughter had her wisdom teeth extracted. She was instructed to take a Valium one hour before the procedure, which she did. A bit later, my eldest daughter called me over to her sister's room and told me that she was acting "loopy". She was dressing our male cat in a scarf and calling him Mother Teresa.

Better living through chemistry, eh?

:-)

Happy Friday everybody!

*Yawn*

New research out of the University of Tokyo shows that contagious yawning in dogs is emotionally connected in a way similar to humans and not as a distress response, as previously thought.

Dogs Yawn In Response To Owners' Yawns

Fascinating.


[The BLOG note: The above pic is one of our beloved German Shepherd, Dax , who wasn't really yawning at the time, but any excuse to see her again was a good enough excuse for me to use her photo for this post.]
