I'm glad Lindsay Lohan's community service gig at the LA County Morgue is working out so well, because it doesn't seem like jail's willing to keep her even five hours. But, really, here's my thing: who gives a shit? Everywhere I go on the goddamn internet this morning, there's Lindsay Lohan skulking about, and it's not like I felt so fucking great ( Read more... )

The idea of celebrities working in morgues appeals to me. They could be bitten by zombies. It would take everyone years to notice. Their fans would get bitten, blog about it, then die. There'd by brains and autographs from hell to breakfast.

Topic: I've always wanted to hear your take on the bleeding Taylor Glacier in Antarctica. We've heard the scientific explanation, but really - how hard would it be to cover up the actual cause, given the rather inaccessible location and required expertise to make a true evaluation?

It's really nothing particularly bizarre. Just fun to pretend it is.

How about a story that highlights the implications of infinite space or time? Poincare recurrence. Loschmidt's paradox. Boltzmann brain weirdness ( ... )

Alternatively, maybe something that expands on Stephen Hawking's "fundamental paradox":

There may be something here, at least bits and pieces. Thank you.
