It’s of no surprise that I enjoy the works of the Marx Brothers. I mean, if you actually sat down and watched one of their movies, I have a good feeling that you’d be of the same opinion. Let’s be honest-how can you not? There’s zany antics, wacky hi-jinx, musical numbers that don’t actually suck, sight gags aplenty and even philosophy.
Wait, what? Philosophy? In a black and white comedy stemming from the roaring twenties?
True believer, you heard right. Many movies tackle important philosophical questions, such as “What is the meaning of existence?”, “What is the true nature of religion?” and “How should people relate to each other?” However, only The Cocoanuts tackles the most complicated question of them all: “Why a duck?”

We all know that, sometimes, the right name will open doors. Brock Chesterton. Shirley Willgodown. The Right-On Feel-Great Underwear Company.
But, what if you’re one of those freedom-fighter/terrorist organizations, and the government believes you may have kidnapped a priest? You need a good name: something mildly threatening, but that people are willing to negoatiate with.
And that is how a freed Irish prist was able to clear the MILF from any wrongdoing.

Standing up has been unexplained thus far?

Science marches forward!
We recently told you that most of your favorite dinosaurs were not actually special at all, but simply more akin to frosted Poptarts versus unfrosted Poptarts.
Well, science has decided that it needs to blow your mind again. A new dinosaur species has been found. NEW! And even more important, it may be of large scientific consequence. Why so? Because it may be … the missing link!
Between quadrupedal dinosaurs and bipedal dinosaurs. Someone sound the anticlimactic alarm.

We know that they’re talking about Somalian pirates, because if they were from Pittsburgh it just would’ve been a blundering mess.

We’re no fans of science, least of all the Large Hadron Collider, which we assume collides hadrons, and is rather large in size. On the other hand, we’re no fans of animals, either.
That is why we are torn over recent events in Switzerland. There, a bird dropped a piece of a baguette (damn you, Frenchies!) into the LHC. On the one hand the bird stopped science temporarily from destroying the world. On the other hand, it’s a bird.
Really, it’s as simple as this: if the world ends, there will be no more animals. Science wins this round.
