The Feline Gandhi

Perhaps there is hope for Republicans and Democrats after all . . .


Now I want to see the same picture with Rush Limbaugh cradled in the arms of Ed Schultz.

In other news, today we are picking up our new puppy, a Goldendoodle. Pictures will follow.

  1. Eggplant, Avocados and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female – they look just like these organs.

    Today’s research shows that when a woman eats 1 avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? …. It takes exactly 9 months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them.

  2. Damn word association, now I am thinking about guacamoli and Mexican Food!

  4. If bananas are proof of God then avocados must be proof of Satan. I mean look at the Pit man! If an infinite number of angels can dance on the head of a pin, surely an avocado pit is large enough to accommodate the souls of every sinner.

  5. “Not if you hold the banana the other way, you idiot!!!”

    I called Kirk and Ray. They said that just proves that God intended the banana to be suitable for sharing. 🙂

  6. No matter which way you hold it it’s still curved toward a person’s mouth. This is how you peel it.

  7. Elaine,

    I think the professor owes all of us some mental bleach for the image of Rush cradled in the arms of Ed Schultz – I know it’s an image I’m finding disturbing and difficult to repress…

    The banana controversy reminds me of a professor that I had for a non-linear dynamics class who liked to say that classifying equations as linear and non-linear was like classifying food as bananas and non-bananas. I’m not sure how that applies here, but it seemed somehow relevant.

  8. Byron–

    Are you sure those weren’t two “chimps” in the video.

    ************
    I love the way the fellow in the video talked about how the banana curved toward a person’s mouth.

    Not if you hold the banana the other way, you idiot!!!

  9. Mespo:

    St. Patrick was using the shamrock as a point of explanation to a primitive pagan race concerning the trinity, these guys are using a banana to explain creation to a “modern” people.

    Oh well I am going to laugh about this all day, it would have been better satire if they would have had 2 chimps with voice over.

  10. Here’s a religious weather forecast for you–kindness of Bill Maher:

  11. That banana part really sold me on the existence of a higher being! Who wouldn’t be persuaded by a phallic looking piece of fruit?

  12. Byron:

    “That there is one let alone 2 people who would believe that video is beyond belief.”

    **********

    You know, Byron, when you claim you are speaking for God, all things are possible. And when you uncritically accept talking snakes, winged horses, and human flight without technology as religious tenets do you really think using a banana as a proof of God is that big a stretch. St. Patrick used a three-leaf clover; these guys are just plagiarists.

  14. Byron, are you serious? I can’t believe you are serious after EC and Mespo told you that the guy was serious, Seriously, come on, are you serious?

  15. Empire Cookie/Mespo:

    I still cannot believe that guy is serious, even after you both told me that he is serious. That there is one let alone 2 people who would believe that video is beyond belief.

  16. EEEEWWWWW! The thought of Rush Limbaugh cradled in anyone’s arms is a nausea-inducing thought.

    I hope your Goldendoodle behaves better than my daughter’s Yellow Lab Jack–who got kicked out his dog nanny daycare.
    Jack has done some work with a trainer–so he is a bit calmer than he once was. We kind of like his spunk, spirit, and personality anyway.

  18. “There is no way that video wasn’t a joke, and the funnier part is that someone took it seriously enough to discredit it.”

    No actually, as difficult as may be to believe, they are perfectly serious. The men in the video are Kirk Cameron, former Growing Pains star and well known scientist, and Ray Comfort: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Comfort

    According to Wiki:

    “In November 2009, Comfort released a creationist-edited version of Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species, with a lengthy foreword including his evangelical musings, which include creationist arguments.[22] It has been alleged that most of Comfort’s brief section in the foreword on Darwin’s life was plagiarized from a short text by Dr. Stan Guffey, a biologist at the University of Tennessee, and Guffey is contemplating legal action.[23][24] The book was given away for free at a number of schools around the United States.According to Comfort’s website, “Nothing has been removed from Darwin’s original work.”[26] Anthropologist and executive director of the National Center for Science Education, Dr. Eugenie C. Scott, reviewed the book and noted that Comfort deleted four chapters by Darwin that described the evidence for evolution. She wrote that Comfort’s foreword is “a hopeless mess of long-ago-refuted creationist arguments, teeming with misinformation about the science of evolution, populated by legions of strawmen, and exhibiting what can be charitably described as muddled thinking.”

    …The National Center for Science Education arranged a campaign at colleges across the U.S. to distribute an analysis of the Comfort introduction, a one page flier and “the NCSE Safety Bookmark (for use with Comfort’s edition of Origin)” in the shape of a banana, a reference to Comfort’s use of a banana in one of his arguments for the existence of God.”

  20. It’s all in the height and which dog is better standing on two legs 🙂
