Does this help NASCAR drivers go faster, too?

And the really nonsensical part is that we pay for it with our tax dollars and yet no rebellion. (you just started working for yourself this past week and it’s mid-AUGUST)

Is there any evidence that good looking people possibly are closer to being more perfect genetically? I believe that the genetically all are degenerating from the beginning not evolving forward. Maybe all at the start were much more perfect genetically and beautiful people still have more genes intact and therefore are more desirable to produce offspring with.

New research found that males can adjust the speed and effectiveness of their sperm by allocating more or less seminal fluid to copulations. The determining factor is whether the male finds the female attractive.

Well, OK, I'll help out if it's for science.

This is the only acceptable caption to that picture from the article:

“researchers collected ‘natural ejaculates’ “

Oh, my.

You know they were all saying to themselves, “OMG, I get paid to to do this!”

I *happened* upon this while surfing your homepage looking for something else. (Note my careful choice of verb.)

It brought to mind this classic column from Dave Barry.

Once at the link you can left-click and drag the article to read the rest of it.

Cheers!
