Your links of the day:
Keats’ project asks some serious scientific questions — and no small number of religious ones: If evolutionary theory is accurate, then God’s genetic makeup should most resemble Earth’s first life forms. Or, if creationists are right, then God’s DNA is more like the life forms he created in his own image. Finding God’s DNA.
Another good article at Wired: The Crusade Against Evolution
Yet more DNA news: Evidence that people have been promiscuous for a long time
And, just because I find O’Reilly to be a pompus jackass:
The folks at Comedy Central were annoyed when Fox News Channel’s Bill O’Reilly kept referring to “The Daily Show” audience as “stoned slackers.” So they did a little research. And guess whose audience is more educated?

I went to the Adams Ave street fair this weekend with Anna. It was good, as usual. It was interesting to run into Bill Gookin. He is exactly like you would expect – a very friendly, geeky guy, obsessed with his Gookinaid. Have to say, I love Gookinaid, the stuff is great for activities and the desert. We bought a tub of it for Burning Man from REI and it worked out great.

Erica Durance. Erica and I went to the same school, she was a year younger. I knew her, but she was not a close friend or anything – the school was small enough that everyone sort of knew each other.
Today some wacko sent me an email from classmates.com asking about her year book photo. I don’t own a tv, but apparently she plays Lois Lane on Smallville, and is becoming quite popular.
All I could think of was ‘that’s got to suck’. Suddenly everyone is digging through your past.

My new testament might be a bit rusty, but I think Jimmy Swaggart might be even rustier than I: “I’m trying to find the correct name for it … this utter absolute, asinine, idiotic stupidity of men marrying men. … I’ve never seen a man in my life I wanted to marry. And I’m gonna be blunt and plain; if one ever looks at me like that, I’m gonna kill him and tell God he died.”
What a charming fellow!

Had a big garage sale on Sat and made 100 bones. I was pretty surprised, I was ready to truck the stuff off to Goodwill.
Finally starting to move into Anna’s place. In fact, I am on the free wireless at the moment. Well, actually I don’t have great signal strength to goldenhillfreeweb right now, so I am actually just connected to some guys network. Seems pretty fast so far.
If I get yanked off it I will have to get a extension RPSMA cable for my card, or rig up a Cantenna and stick that out the window or something. I have line of sight from the balcony, so I should get a decent signal from there.
