@izzythepush,
That is not true izzy. It once was but it never entered my head that Charlotte was unaware of my glances at her charms. In fact I asked her one night if she minded my gazing at her in rapture on account of how beautiful she is and she said "Not at all--feel free to admire me to your heart's content." So there is no craftiness involved and she disports herself in a manner which she is either unconscious of, or pretends to be, I can't tell which, but allows me, and Vic, my sidekick most nights, to gaze unashamedly at those areas of her blemish-free flesh she chooses to exhibit. One night she spilled a little of my foaming pint on the bar top and offered to wipe it up. I said "It's alright Lottie, I like it wet. I'm very old fashioned". She looked at me daggers for that one. Everybody else treats her like a skivvy. I can't help being a male chauvinist pig. Take it up with my Mum and Dad if there's an objection to that.

I haven't been actively following this thread so I don't know if this has already been posted here, but in case it hasn't I thought it should.

There's this high school kid in Louisiana who's challenged potential Tea Party POTUS nominee Michelle Bachmann's view on the creationism myth and the Louisiana Science Education Act that she supports.

The link is here: Show me your Nobel laureate scientists

@spendius,
You wouldn't want to leer at the tits of anyone down the pub where I used to drink. We used to call it the toilet, because inside the decor was just like a public lavatory. And it had the world's ugliest barstaff. I'm not kidding, if that was a competition it would have won first second and third prize. Cheap beer though.

@Setanta,
Probably writes better than Congresswoman Bac(k)mann. This 17 year old sure thinks better than Bachmann.

@izzythepush,
The problem that you experienced was that you did not take the pub as seriously as Spendius does, If you would have had a few more drinks the world's ugliest bar staff would look sexy!

Just kidding around Spendius!

@reasoning logic,
Sheesh!!! Is that what they call kidding around in the Youessay?

No wonder you anti-IDers don't understand what this thread is all about.

Well go on then rap. Show us them.

In the manner that tabloid newspapers show us our footballers and politicians and other professionals I mean. Being given brief glimpses of what your NL scientists show of themselves is hardly being shown them.

You are in danger, rap, of ******* your own head off your own shoulders in a swoon of posing as an elite member of the scientific community. Which you very definitely are not. You don't even know what "to be shown" means.

It would be very neat if that 17 year old kid was using this piece as his entrance essay for Tulane.

@farmerman,
I agree, but It would be nice to think first rate university recruiters are falling over each other for Zack. A kid like this will be far more productive to society than some all state quarterback.

@cicerone imposter,
There are a few Nobel Laureates who "belive in " ID. However, I dont know of any who are chemists, medical scientists or biologists. The only one I can think of is (now late) E WIgner who was so taken by how math can "predict" \nature.
He was in an argument with ERnst Mayr who reminded Wigmner of all the otrher math expressions that adequately "predict" population dynamics and evolution without resorting to

"POOF , And then a miracle occures"

@farmerman,
It's understandable that even scientists believe in the POOF theory of everything. They have become enslaved to their religious teachings.

Ever thought of taking up drinking ? You could do with some relaxation . It might improve your ability to post something that makes sense .

Did you laugh your head off at that great prose ? Do you realise you are making a fool of yourself ?
