Quick hits.

Posted by apostropher

A German zoo has hired a clown to keep its monkeys from getting bored.

When the Milky Way collides with the Andromeda galaxy in a couple billion years, our solar system is likely to get banished way out to the dark galactic boondocks.

Video of a water balloon popping at 80x slo-mo.

Haiku a bitter duck might write.

Say cheese!

In a better world, my manager would hire a clown to keep me from becoming bored.

Clowns in the workplace aren’t as funny as you might think. Try the internet instead.

In a better world, your manager would hire a little monkey jockey to ride on your back and make you work faster.

Hey, my manager reads this site. Don't give him ideas. He means a masseuse, bossman!

Wouldn't a clown anaethesiologist be a better hire than just a clown?

What does the clown do that is an improvement on all the people making faces and tapping on the glass?

I be totally down with getting anaesthesia at work, but I'm not optimistic about its effects on my productivity.

Now that I think about it, a monkey anaesthesiologist would be more entertaining, but perhaps a bigger gamble overall.

Nonsense. If computer models can't predict the weather next week, how can they possibly forecast what happens with our glaxy, much less our solar system, in a couple billion years?

Besides, God if created the Earth and universe only 6000 years ago, He's likely to bring it all to a stop for a Last Judgment before then, and Heaven and Hell are not in this universe - unless of course you're Mitch Romney or one of his ilk.
