Happy Darwin Day! After all the ID whack-a-mole lately, it seems especially significant this year. I'm not sure how to celebrate appropriately, but inkycircus has suggestions. Any others?
Tags: Evolution, ScienceHmmm...maybe blog posts about bushorchimp.com would constitute an appropriate celebration?

Posted by: Arcane Gazebo | February 13, 2006 12:05 AMThis was Cheney pandering to PETA. For fear he'd lose the animal rights vote he didn't actually want to shoot any quail. Instead he wanted them to die of laughter at his marksmanship.

Clearly I should celebrate by some form of self-castration (though my social skills are functionally equivalent to this). I'm not sure what to recommend for you, though.
Posted by: Lemming | February 13, 2006 9:36 AMSelf-castration as a form of celebration? What a concept...
Posted by: Mason | February 13, 2006 9:57 AMSort of along these lines -- I couldn't find another recent thread that was apropos -- check out the Toles cartoon from Feb. 2. (It just ran in our paper Saturday.)
Also, to see a surprising way that a bunch of churches/clergypeople celebrated Darwin's birthday click here. A much-needed breath of fresh air in the debate!
