PS: I Sincerely Apologize to All Platypus Enthusiasts out there Who are Offended by this Thoughtless Post

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •  

It seems the platypus really is God’s little joke.

DNA studies recently found out that the reason the widely-agreed-to-be-mammilian-platypus exhibits characteristics of mammals, birds, and reptiles is, no joke, platypus have DNA structures of mammals, birds, and reptiles.

I Wanna be Rich, Famous, and Powerful, so all I Have to do in Life is Sit Around and Sing

What is it about music that brings people together and can turn complete strangers into a troupe of singers?

I kid you not. I have seen an entire room of strangers spontaneously break into song and dance.

My brother works for TSA at McCarran Airport in Las Vegas. He called me up today to let me know he got an entire line of passengers to start singing together.

“How?”

To Lose Your Arm Would Surely Upset Your Brain

We all know the story of antibiotics.

Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin in 1928 and there was much rejoicing.

Well, actually the rejoicing comes a little bit later, because Alexander Fleming didn't actually do anything.

They Don't Just Chop it Off!

A million years ago, during my undergraduate years, one of my assignments was to watch a surgery (pre-op, intra-op, and post-op) and write about it.

My class mates jumped at the first appendectomies they could find, but I wanted something interesting. I asked around about upcoming events and one nurse failed to let me down.

“There’s a vaginoplasty happening in about an hour.”

Sleeping is a Gateway Drug for Being Awake

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •  

I think it was the second semester of my sophomore year of college that I mastered the art of successfully pulling an all-nighter (or more than one—in a row.). I won’t go into that here, though. Purposely avoiding sleep is not the smartest thing in the world, and I won’t be responsible for making it easier for all of you to accomplish.
