What gives you goosebumps when you just think about it? Or is there anything that does that? I’ll tell you something that gives me goosebumps like that. And I dreamed about it recently. And I don’t tend to remember dreams very often. But this one was a blast. But, before I tell you what it was, I’ll share what a dimwit, uh, “physiologist and … The rest of the story…

Once upon a time, jellyfish, and trillions of other marine life creatures, were buried alive in layers of sediment. And it happened so fast their bodies didn’t even have time to decompose and smell bad. And thousands of years later (yes, thousands) you can dig ’em up and see what they looked like in almost perfect details. It’s so amazing it almost sounds like … The rest of the story…
So. There’s this little protoplanet named “Vesta.” And, as it churns out, little Vesta might have some clues as to how life on Earth might have formed? Yeah, scientists discovered some areas of impact on the “minor planet” that seem to show “collisions with carbon rich asteroids.” And of course, they emphasize that carbon is the essential building block to all life on earth, … The rest of the story…
Back when I used to perform, nightly, in an island-themed restaurant, one crowd favorite was a song by Jimmy Buffett. The lyrics talked about volcanoes erupting and what would happen when they do. Words like, “Ground she’s movin’ under me. Tidal waves out on the sea. Sulphur smoke up in the sky. Pretty soon we learn to fly.” And then the chorus said, “I … The rest of the story…
I shared some stuff a few years ago that bears repeating. Because even though government schools dumb down all who attend, teach in, and run those institutions, humans still have complex capabilities other creatures don’t have. My wife and I share a common ancestor. My dog and I do not. Some evolutionary scientists embrace a theory they call “convergent evolution”. This is where complex … The rest of the story…
Sustainable aviation fuel. I just read a couple of short articles, from Forbes and the Wall Street Journal, about the “new” approach to help “reduce the carbon footprints” of airline companies. And, as I read, I thought, “How nice. Big corporations are starting to invest in something that’s been available all along. Matter of fact, you’ve enjoyed sustainable aviation fuel your whole life. Yep, … The rest of the story…
I’ve been absent from my writings for a few days. But I have a doctor’s note. So you can’t get mad at me or anything. Seriously. I could show you the info. But I’m sure you don’t need all the gory details. Because you trust me and you know I wouldn’t lie to you unless it was absolutely necessary. Right? Alright. Now that we’re … The rest of the story…
Right up front, I gotta say it. And I know this is anathema to the enlightened, evolutionary worldview. But here it is. There’s no such thing as fossil fuel. Bam! I just attacked the whole fossils evolution connection. And, no, there won’t be a forthcoming retraction or apology. Because the fossils evolution connection is a fairy tale. And I probably shouldn’t say that. Because … The rest of the story…
According to one reliable source, a star explodes about every 26 years. No, I’m not talking about Alec Baldwin. These are actual stars. You know, those blinking lights up in the sky. So, evidently, exploding stars are not a rare phenomenon. And exploding stars produce a lot of gas and dust. And, also according to my trustworthy source, that gas and dust expands “outward … The rest of the story…
I’m biased (and also right) about this. Music makes us human. And “scientists” agree with me. So, there. OK, I’ll drop the attitude and share some gratitude. But there IS a lot of evidence that music makes us human. No, it’s obviously not the only thing. And not even the main thing. But music is an amazing and complicated marker, among many markers, for … The rest of the story…
