Time for an update!

Well I certainly haven't updated in a while, so I figure I am good and ready to do a post now. Hopefully due to Travis logic, this will spin me into a life of great accomplishment and happiness...but only time will tell on that one. I don't have much new to say about me. Currently living in Nelson, working away at the genetics lab here, returning to school in January to finish off my degree, and be forced to finally decide what will be next in my life! *epps!*

But since I don't have much to say regarding myself, I will instead lead you down a path of enlightenment with a glimpse of my lunch-time internet browsing.

#1. My favourite highlights from "The top 50 Evolution Myths"

- Darwin took back his theory of evolution on his death bed

- That it's a scientific conspiracy theory we believe in to battle Christianity

- The second law of thermodynamics makes evolution impossible

- If evolution is true, how come there are still monkeys?

- Evolution caused slavery

- God made evolution so he could trick as many scientists as he could into believing it, instead of him, just so he could light them on fire for all eternity. But he still loves them

- Man and dinosaurs existed at the same time. T-Rex used to be a vegetarian

- Evolution was responsible for the Columbine high school shooting

and finally:

- Charles Darwin is Satan

(life changing isn't it? I always thought he was satan....)

#2. Life expectancy calculator.

According to this I will live to be 102.

- Feed bacteria candy and get electricity:
