Happy Thanksgiving
Antarctica kicks U.S. butt. Not cool. But exposing a Hoax IS.
“I’d like to see a calculation to show how long it would take for its miles-thick icepack to melt at 33 degrees F. Sea level increases wouldn’t matter because if you weren’t living closer to the poles you’d be dealing with 150-200 degree temperatures on the surface. I hear it’s gonna happen in five years or so.”

Folks, this post was sitting around for a while, and I was about to delete it except for recent events regarding the AGW hoax debates. If you haven’t been following, here are some links to bring you up to speed.
Soylent Green’s cbullitt posted the error data cluster from the AGW folks at East Anglia University’s world renowned Climate Research Unit. (BTW, thanks for the hat tip cbull.)
The UK Telegraph chimes in on “Climategate.”
AJStrata has been debunking (gawd I hate that word) AGW for some time now.
Chris Horner of Watts Up With That has filed three NOIs:
Iowahawk dissects the situation. Don’t miss this one.
Even CBS (!?) seems to have gotten the story right. Lookee here.
AND IT’S ALL JUST IN TIME FOR COPENHAGEN! YAY!

Hot Links – Cephalopoodle Edition
And then I’ll call Pup Tentacle
Note that we have once again made Google History by being the first to post the term “Cephalopoodle.” It’s right up there with the first mention and commentary about Igde Pshat. Y’all are cordially welcome.
zen haiku:
knock knock knock knock knock
knock knock knock who’s there? Not that
octopus again
From that same link comes this great Zen google translation:
“Neurotic he is already.You can repair the way the octopus laugh : it is like empty.”
Congrats to Hanan of GrowABrain for the new addition to his family unit.
Tribute websites exist for just about everything, including the WWW. Don’t badmouth Artemus Gordon.
Interesting lecture on creativity by Sir Ken Robinson. I don’t agree with everything he espouses, but it’s an entertaining commentary on the public education system.
Given that a circle is comprised of line segments, and that each segment is tangent to the center of that circle, then the simplest circle that one can draw is an equilateral triangle.
Soldier’s Mail came from a comment on this post. Good stuff.
Military Magazine is still a good read. Get a free copy and decide for yourself.
Oh, and BTW, Hobotopia rocks.

Saturday Matinee Bonus: UFO Eyewitness
Saturday Matinee – Butterstick, Us, Stand Up and Shout, Jerry’s Breakdown, After You’ve Gone
I axed Bunkarina to pick out a video or two for this week’s video trainwreck, and she chose this. From Drew Carey’s “Whose Line Is It Anyway,” here’s “Butterstick.”
Bunkarina likes this video by Regina Spektor, and so do I.
The Tubes were the late 70’s equivalent to FZ’s Mothers of the late 60’s. MockRock at it’s best. “Stand Up and Shout” covers a lot of ground while featuring Fee Waybill as druggie frontman “Quay Lewd.”
The late Jerry Reed pickin’ with the late Chet Atkins. This one’s for Aussie Phil.
Suzy Boggus‘ & Chet Atkins’ excellent version of “After You’ve Gone.” (Ignore her stupid outfit, she’s a great singer.)
