The only thing worse than a creationist, is a creationist in a position of authority over other people's children. Well, as Pink Floyd would say: "Hey! Teacher! Leave those kids alone!"
P.S. Which one's Pink?

Sunday is Giardono Bruno day.
Dunno if anyone celebrates besides me, since I'm the only one I know who celebrates.
So, this is what you do: Stand on the roof of your house/apartment and scream "I am so f**king glad I live in the 21st century!"
Then run away before neighbors figure out it is you, and call the asylum.
(You can also read 'Cause, Principle and Unity while sipping a margarita and donate money to your favorite civil liberties/education group)
Here is a picture of Bruno:

You are Giardono Bruno, Garrette? Or are you simply as handsome as he was?
Either way, works for me!
Edited to add: I found this poem by Shelley, thought to refer to Giardono:
quote: I was an infant when my mother went To see an Atheist burned. She took me there The dark-robed priests were met around the pile, The multitude was gazing silently; And as the culprit passed with dauntless mien, Tempered disdain in his unaltering eye, Mixed with a quiet smile, shone calmly forth The thirsty fire crept round his manly limbs; His resolute eyes were scorched to blindness soon His death-pang rent my heart! The insensate mob Uttered a cry of triumph, and I wept.

Great! As long as you're with someone else...

Notice how he skirts around the question of what he looks like.
Tease.

Well, I have no reason to believe he's not Giardono Bruno. It's just the facial expressions and bodily contortions in the photos he sent me make identification difficult at best.

Hmm, maybe I will have to check out the "Girls Gone Wild" video!
