I linked to this site a couple months back when I learned about the censhorship bill known as the Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act. Thanks to lots of people making a stink about it, the congressional asshats that came up with it didn't get to bring it up for a vote then.

But, as in the timeless manner of asshats the world over, they're back! Hopefully, so are we.

Scientist: BP's Oil Spill Estimates Improbable

In related news, I'm going to open a chain of stores selling nothing but pitchforks, torches, and peasant outfits.

(In other news, I just realized it's been months since I've posted here. There are reasons, but apol-logeez nonetheless.)

Antarctic glaciers melting faster than thought

So the good news is that scientists were wrong about global climate change. The bad news is... um... everything else.

Alp-sized peaks found entombed in Antarctic ice

Though this is, in fact, a story on how scientists are trying to accurately predict the consequences of accelerating global climate change, I have to admit, the first thought I had was, 'holy crap, they've found the Mountains of Madness.'

British pilot hits cow during emergency landing

Of course, he says it was an accident. And the cow is apparently unhurt and not pressing charges. Me, I think this was the opening salvo of 'Mad Cow Wars II: The British Empire Strikes Back.'

Mystery Underwear Stymies Guantanamo Investigators

I bet it turns out the illicit undergarments were brought in by the same guys who bring in the waterboard and the car battery with the testicle clamps. 'Cause I'm sure none of the guys there thought they'd need a change of undies.
