cool. actually i had speculated about the cows for years
Joanne,
Love the podcast but I have two comments: (1) One can not have ancestors in the far distant future, by definition they are from your past and (2) Kuiper is pronounced so as to rhyme with viper.
Where can I get a badass alarm clock like that?
awe…Now I’ll never Get My Hyper Drive working.:(
Did she say she was going to blow up Uranus?
hi, i’m a big fan of the show and was wondering why are the recent videos keep getting unavailable, here and on youtube…. and why aren’t some available in my country… Romania (east/center Europe)
thank you
Hey Rus.
It was a problem with YouTube which should be fixed soon. In the meantime, you can also watch it on blip.tv

many, many many thx!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
Great show - Thanks!
I knew there was something wrong with my cow, she’s always pointing in a western direction. Kam, got a cow-bong that points North? Could I borrow it? Thnx.
BTW, if you’re into comics, Google is working on a new browser called Google Chrome
which is thoroughly explained in this comic book. It was so exciting I fell asleep on page 5.

Exactly the tune I flashed on! where do you come up w/this stuff!
The B-vault!
The problem with the designated driver program, it’s not a desirable job, but if you ever get sucked into doing it, have fun with it. At the end of the night, drop them off at the wrong house. ~Jeff Foxworthy
Yeah!!! A Milwaukee reference!!!
That magnet theory is dumb. Isn’t it more likely that the cows just stand north and south to keep the sun out of their eyes?
lmao magnetic cows
Hahaha! Go Milwaukee! I saw those idiots before too!
Testing… testing….. Is this thing on?
I’m still off the grid, kind of. I’m back home but deeply involved in a thrilling adventure story that a buddy asked me to read.
But this was a nice day to drop back in.
I should be back to full blather in a couple of weeks.
Meanwhile: I am glad Joanne pronounces her planets with such dignity.
By the way: Chrome has a EULA that gives Google pretty much unlimited rights to any content “displayed” on the browser. Which means, if I had watched this ep in Chrome, Google would own it. Not the intent? Maybe. But that is what the EULA says. Ick.
Hey leron, can’t wait to see the videos of you with that biker chick.
…more on CHROME

NO! NO! NO! Don’t blow up Uranus. They already took my Pluto! Here Chiron. Here boy. That’s a nice boy.
That’s affirmative Captain. Damn the photons! FULL SPEED ASTERN. Where did all the sunspots go? I know, the Klingons took them. It’s a KGB commiplot.
Sun spots? I cleaned those up a month ago. You should be all clean now! Enjoy the global warming. Seriously though, do you think Al Gore will blame the sunspot thing on Exxon? I would.
boom
PUT THOSE BACK! You don’t know where they’ve been. FREE THE SUNSPOTS! WE WANT SUNSPOTS! All tribes do your rain dance backwards. How many times do I have to tell you. Al Gore is a KGB agent, it’s why Billy refused to resign and wasn’t impeached. His mission is to spread disinformation to the ignorant western elitists while the soviet satellites are being assimilated. (Keep this quite: “The Borg are operational”.) If you think Stalin and Hitler were bad you ain’t see Puttin hit his true form yet.
Look, those sunspots are MINE now. If you want them you can bid on them on Ebay just like everybody else.
You know Billy was impeached though, right? He was the last of only two presidents to get impeached. The other was Johnson.
lol, i liked this episode. Science rules!, after God, of course.
Hey, with a little metric conversion, you can use grams instead of kilograms and bam!, takes a lot less mass. ;-)
[...] 3, 2008 by Ben Lillie Rocketboom is reporting that scientists have found a way to produce a Star Trek style warp drive. It’s a cute story, [...]
Right Captain. The impeachment wasn’t sustained.
Concerning sunspots. An entity identified as Old Sol, residing at Right Ascension 21:12.0, Declination +48;19, has filed a missing property report with the local constabulary. “Charges” will be pressed if they aren’t returned by “sundown”. Family members, numbering 200-400 billion will react “explosively” if this isn’t done. The closest in the Orion neighborhood were most vehement. A belt being removed to administer discipline was overheard.
HEY! Stay away from my Uranus!
What?? Oh, she meant the planet…sorry.
She’s beautiful and she makes Uranus jokes. Seriously! What more do you want?
Cows align north/south because the sun feels better on their sides.
Science without Occam’s Razor is just stupid.
can i have a nuclear powered car?
I would fuck her ass.
hahahaha =)
