Uh...is it just me or did almost all of my articles become invisible. I navigate away from the page for a second and everything disappeared. I noticed that a lot of the categories are missing in this new article posting thingy.
I thought everything was gone, but apparently I can still find my A.A.F. through my index link.
Hope this is just a minor little bug...you guys scared the crap out of me...thought all my work was gone.

Hey guys, figures I should write an article or something so you know I haven't yet fallen off the face of the earth. (Luckily that gravity theory seems to be holding out. )
It's finals week for me and I've spent about 5 or 6 hours today grinding through the ACS guidebook for my organic chemistry exam on Tuesday. Still got a few more chapters to go...but I can knock it out in a couple more hours tomorrrow...and then I'll go through it again to make sure I understand exactly what the...
You know, I've been checking out this Flying Spaghetti Monster stuff. It's awesome.
If you haven't seen them before, these are The Eight "I Really Rather You Didn'ts" and I have to say, the FSM makes some good points.
1. I'd really rather you didn't act like a sanctimonious holier-than-thou ass when describing my noodly goodness. If some people don't believe in me, that's okay. Really, I'm not that vain. Besides, this isn't about them so don't change the s...

Okay, I'm just going to outline a few things that creationists can't seem to grasp about the evolutionary process.
When they bring up the "lighning striking a mud puddle" argument and the first appearance of life-that's not evolution. It has nothing to do with evolution. Life from nonlife is addressed in theories about abiogenesis. (Click the link there, read about it.)
Evolution starts with a pre-existing lifeform and seeks to describe how it as a species changes...
I wake early in the morning,Venture forth and gazeAt the majesty that surrounds me.A jewel littered landscapeWith lazy mists caressing every blade of grass,Every petal of every flower. This scene appears alien to me.Most of the day is bright and mundaneBut at this hour it is magical.Not often does one truly admire the beautyOf Nature.Everything coalescing to present the very core,The very bounty that life has to offer. Like a dream it will fade,Dissipate in the morning sunBut now in th...
