At last year’s 911 Accountability Strategies and Solutions Conference Ex-Private Anderson had some things to say about the war in Iraq. Mind you, they weren’t pretty.
He also proposed two ways in which the average American can do their part to stop the war: 1) Help the GI resistance and 2) Stop paying taxes.
The experiment in this video was done before by psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark over 50 years ago. A group of children are put in front of a black doll and a white doll and asked a series of simple questions.
Sadly, the results are the same today.
Another great episode of Bullshit from Penn and Teller. (I love this show, don’t you?)
This is a pretty clever video, or should I say, scale. Each time you play this, the recorded audio seems different in pitch, going higher and higher. Go ahead, play it once, then play it again.
Can you say “weird”?
Why is it that after you get into college, it turns out to be less that what you expected? Here’s one college, Quendelton State University, that finally tells it like it is:
“We’re actors. This literally never happens.”

Oscar the featherless bird may well be the ugliest bird in the world, but it’s not the poor thing’s thought, as he/she suffers from a rare virus.
As the woman who looks after her tells us, the virus causes scar to get so irritated by her own feathers she pulls them out, which obviously leaves her slightly bald.
After recently reading about how evolution cannot be legally taught in classrooms, it comes as not a total shock that a teacher or professor would be fired from her post if she didn’t stay neutral on creationism.
Especially coming out of Dubya’s state, right? But, if we can teach one, but not the other, who is the true hypocrite here?
My girlfriend has been on at me about getting a cat for the last year or so, but I keep saying no. Partly because I have an allergy, and partly because of the size of our flat.
However, watching this video has kind of made me a little more open to the idea. I want me a pet I can make yodel and use for experiments with static!
