Mark P Knowles :: Don't Panic !

Another collection of photographs I have found in my internet travels. No particular theme to them, but they are all excellent. These first few are from the Stuttgart Museum of Natural History's evolution advertising campaign. I know a lot of you creationists out there do not have an irony bone, so just in case - THESE ARE A JOKE.

But, as you can clearly see - it is easy to work out how new species come about through evolution, which pretty much proves there is no god - right?

So - if you were wondering how Ostriches came to be - now you know - proof that they were not created. And while we are on the subject of creationism and religion - here is a quick way to get to heaven.

A graphic depiction of the difference between Science and faith:

All right, that is enough religion-bashing. Here are a few photos of Emma Watson of Harry Potter fame - modeling underwear. Just because she can...........

Awwww. Look at that - Emma Watson is all growed up..............

These are more random excellent photos -

I hope you find these are entertaining as I do. But if you are one of thoose people who feels like they are waiting for something that isn't going to happen - go out and do something.

I found this video fascinating. Watching something like this makes you realize just how small we are. No danger to the local inhabitants apparently, but amazing footage.

First off, I didn't write this, so if you did - let me know so I can credit you. It was just so funny, I had to post it.Try reading it out loud in an angry voice and I defy you not to laugh.

"I understand how scissors can beat paper, and I get how a rock can beat scissors, but there's no fucking way paper can beat rock. Is paper supposed to magically wrap around rock and leave it immobile? Why the hell can't paper do this to scissors? Screw scissors, why can't paper do this to people?

Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they take notes in class? I'll tell you why. Because paper can't beat anybody. A rock would tear that shit up in two seconds.

When I play rock, paper, scissors, I always choose rock, then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper I can punch them in the face with my already clenched fist and say, "Oh shit ! I'm sorry. I thought paper would protect you, you asshole."

What a screwed up world ! Banks, long seen as the pillars of the establishment have managed in a few short years to bring that establishment to it's knees, and us along with it. Of course the question of "who pays?" is pretty much moot. The governments around the world have made the decision for us. We pay. Or, if the amount of money needed is as vast as I think it is - our great-great-grand children will be paying.

Yet another bank had to be bailed out yesterday - HSH Nordbank needed 13 billion Euros of German taxpayer's money to keep it afloat. I can barely bring myself to think about the latest garbage from Gordon "no more boom and bust" Brown, as he pours another £14 billion into Northern Rock, as Northern Rock says "Fuck you, we want our bonuses for 2008.," despite posting enormous losses and being bailed out - twice. Protests are mounting around the world at bankers excesses, although  to read a typical newspaper, you would think everything is hunky-dory. I am amazed at the duplicity, cunning and downright lies pouring out of the Government INC around the world. Every lying sack of shit politician has promised no more bonuses, and every bank has been carefully instructed how to go about avoiding that. These are a selection of photographs from protests that Fox news, the BBC et al seem blissfully unaware of. These are on Wall Street, outside The Bank of England, Iceland and Paris. All recently.

Bank is definitely the new four letter word, although I think we now need a new three letter word - Car. The Germans are pondering whether or not to bail out Opel, goodness knows how much money is going to be poured into GM and Chrysler, (although Ford demonstrated their commitment to frugality by unveiling an automatic parking gadget recently).
